Becoming a fan of a page or joining a group on Facebook serves the following purposes:
- You are trying to be controversial without drawing too much attention to yourself.
- You have an STI-like burn to tell the world how you do and notice certain things about the world (i.e when my crotch itches in public i scratch it without anyone noticing :D).
- You want to let everyone on your friends list know that you are an advocate for a certain cause without writing it all in your profile (i.e. GO FREEGAN, i <3 moss, JOIN THIS GROUP IF YOU ARE AGAINST KICKING A CAT IN THE BALLS!!!!).
- You have a neural disorder where as soon as your hand touches a mouse, it begins to click uncontrollably (there might be a Facebook group for that).
- You want to reach some sort of quasi-fame by being involved in world records, even though about a million other people are also doing the same thing.
- You are sadistic and enjoy being a part of someone else’s pain (i.e. If this group reaches 1 million people, I will stick pins in my eyeballs and set my balls on fire, if this group reaches 50 members, i will get a lady gaga tattoo)
- You’re secretly in love with someone but you don’t know how else to tell them (i.e. i love you so much that i’d stand out in the rain for 6 hours outside your house just to get a glimpse of you… if only you knew :( ).
- Likewise, you secretly hate someone (i.e. FUCK YOU MOM I’M GONNA KILL YOU ONE DAY)
- You actually want to get updates and news from a certain page/group because you are actually a fan of something (although secretly we all know you’re just trying to do one of the above).
