So far I have been able to resist since it's no temptation. But dammit!!! 
And look! The word itself made an appearance three times right here! In this post!

It won't be long and you'll need a F***book account to check into a hotel. We'll resist it like my older parents resisted a credit card. They only got one when they needed it to travel in 2003 because airlines and hotels no longer took checks. I think they have it in a sock drawer for emergencies; like the prepaid cellphone they keep in the glove compartment of their car.
Next thing you know they'll get a PC and eventually the internet.
If they can only hold out for another couple of years, there may be someone out there who could feed us the blue pills.
