I didn't say everyone you were friends with are "best" friends. Nor am I trying to redefine friendship as "Facebook friends." And I wish people would read what I wrote, not what they think about Facebook.
>I didn't say everyone you were friends with are "best" friends.
Where did I imply that? I literally responded to:
>If your best friend died, would you really know how to contact everyone he/she was friends with?
>Nor am I trying to redefine friendship as "Facebook friends." And I wish people would read what I wrote, not what they think about Facebook.
Yeah, didn't say that either. I wish people would read what I wrote too.
It's just absolutely 99% ridiculous to believe that _facebook_ would be the way you'd likely be notified that your "best friend" (your words) died. A true friend, let alone a _best_ friend, is someone whose life you're involved in at a deeper level than FB.
I left 1% for situations like elderly people who have been friends for decades and live half a world away from each other.
> If your best friend died, would you really know how to contact everyone he/she was friends with?
How did you make the leap to:
> It's just absolutely 99% ridiculous to believe that _facebook_ would be the way you'd likely be notified that your "best friend" (your words) died.
I didn't say: "I want to find out my best friend died via Facebook." My question was meant to imply: "I don't know how to find everyone my best friend considers his friends, but his Facebook friends list is an improper superset of that list"
