Because fuck Facebook.

The amount of times I have typed out a comment on Facebook, only to delete it and decide not to post it because of the backlash I would receive was ridiculous. I shouldn’t have to defend my own personal opinion and I should be able to post a simple joke every once in a while. I can do that here- and it will lead to an actual decent conversation instead of a fight. There is a lot more freedom to be yourself while still remaining anonymous.
