Why I Quit Facebook

I didn't actually quit Facebook.

I can't quit Facebook, although I've tried. I think I made some sort of secret deal with the demon gods of Facebook over partial ownership of my soul. I can no longer remember this secret deal, but I figure that not remembering must have been part of it.

Still, I admire people who do quit, and I enjoy reading "Why I Quit Facebook" essays.

I almost want to put together these essays, get the permission of the authors, and then publish the collection as a physical book. Oh the things I could do if I didn't have a job.

Anyway, have some essays about quitting Facebook!
