Is Facebook a necessary evil? Or does it just take enough people who are secure enough in their own self-worth to reject the vanity exercise of needing to seek validation of their lives through “likes” and instead choose to #DeleteFacebook in order to take this flawed corporation down a peg or two? Either way, there’s no question that Facebook can be a toxic wasteland of narcissism and vitriol.

Still hard pass. Last night, The Daily Show brilliantly parodied what things would be like if Facebook were a real place.
