The Illusion of Facebook

The theory that Facebook is just like heroin.

Heroin is highly addictive gives you the impression that you can do anything and be super-productive, when in fact you're doing the exact opposite.

Similarly, Facebook is just as addictive and gives you the impression that you're socializing and making new friends when in fact you're doing the exact opposite.

Guy #1: No, you're not. You're being deceived by the Illusion of Facebook.

Lonestar illusions

An idea of a Texas lifestyle, based on romanticized notions of Texas' history, culture, and daily life, that lead a person to have a misconceived conception of what a traditional Texas lifestyle entails. This idea is based on thoughts of Southern gentry, glamour, and the beauty of the Texas landscape.
