I really wish they could see themselves sometimes

What do you think they put cameras in cell phones for?

I already know they are narcissistic

Spot on, as usual.

Again, I say it: K&R.

And rec history is like DUers very own metadata.

who I asked something

I am one of your ten.

I once had eight or so people on my buddy list, but DU3 doesn't seem to do buddy lists any more.

But most of the people on my buddy list did not think of ME as a friend. It just meant that I considered their journal entries to be worth reading.

active on social media really think that everyone needs to be doing exactly that.

And I think they vastly overestimate the numbers of those who are on social media, and even more vastly underestimated the possibility that someone NOT on social media can be very well informed about things.
