Hi you guys! Cool to see you back! 
<waves, trying to look cool>

Hey, Lobsang. I remember you! Welcome back.
Sometimes my teeth itch. But today I am wearing new socks.

Welcome back!
Hi Lobsang, funny I also recently returned after years of absence. Only I have never entered the dark world of Facebook. so didn’t need to leave that.
Welcome back guys!
Welcome, welcome! The ice cream is still here for you! (It escaped, but we recaptured it.)
Thanks for all the welcoming back everyone!
I’m not sure if I’ll be a regular poster here again, I was having a bad day and this was just testing the waters. I feel better now and I’m trying to get used to the idea that facebook is an unhealthy habit. Each urge to share a photo, or something funny I saw on reddit, or a ‘profound’ or amusing thought, has to be met with telling myself “You don’t need to share it, keep it to yourself, sharing isn’t all it’s cracked up to be”
I brought Pork Pie, and Bakewell Tart but I don’t know how to transfer them electronically so I will have to eat them myself!
I had no idea the boards were moving! I guess it was just lucky timing 
I did actually do that (also unfriended one family member who’s racism was just too blatant), but a number of other factors were involved (one of which is probably my adictive personality) and I figured I would just try to get off it myself. Over the years I’ve seen a lot of people talk about Facebook being unhealthy and I’ve only seen it get worse not better recently.
New socks are the best. 
Welcome back! I’ve only been back sporadically in the last few years as life was getting in the way. I miss all you whack-a-doodles.
Hey man, long time no see.
I’m sort of a returning refugee myself. After getting fired in Jan '19, I drifted a bit. I had to move, alone, to another city for work, and come back to my wife and kids on the weekend. When that office cut everyone’s pay after about 6 months, I looked for a way to return, because that just wasn’t economically feasible.
Fortunately, I found a new job closer to home than I have ever worked in my life. The pay is comparable, the benefits are great, and it’s surprisingly easy to get this job done from home. So I’m back in a much better mindspace now, and thought I’d peek back at the board.
Howdy y’all. What up.
Yes,there is something “intrinsically” wrong with Facebook. And that is when you use it, you make Mark Zuckerberg wealthier.
Yes, the guy looks somewhat obnoxious.
Unpleasant as it might be, the self-outing of racists and assholes on Facebook is actually turning out to be one of its greatest pluses. I already didn’t fully trust or much care for most of these people and now I know exactly why.
I feel your Facebook pain, Lobsang. I have unfollowed and unfriended A LOT of people (many of them related to me) since 2016. It maks for a skimpy FB feed. I can watch only so many cute cat and dog videos, ya know? But as DCinDC said, it has allowed those people to reveal their true selves to me. It’s been disheartening to discover that my entire family is a bunch of bigoted, narrrow-minded racists.
