Show HN: A high-schoolish "Oh Right." moment comments on Facebook

So many of us are thrillfully justifying our existence by diving into the explanation as to why we use Facebook, or shouldn't. I'm noticing a bit of maturity to the arguments now. It seems a rather curious philosophical statement exists, and is namely the thing I wish to Show HN; namely:

    "I use Facebook because everybody else uses Facebook."

What should we do with it? What can we do with it? For instance, one procedure to this statement might be that:

    "I use Facebook to stay current with my closed family and friends. My grandmother is quite old."

Or:

    "I use Facebook sparingly to keep minimal communications on a widely used platform."

Or:

    "I use Facebook because my company has no minimal messaging portal."

Or:

    "I use Facebook because my type of work is in the business of social networking, and Andressen tells us it's all about computers."

Or:

    "I do not use Facebook."

Now this one is curious, since it does not immediately suggest that Facebook is even used in a sense of "mention" à la Korzybskian (Alfred Korzybski) sentences. You could call them Gödel statements, Repeatability statements, explosive statements perchance. But the statement does not merely contingently re-use Facebook in a dual sense, but necessarily so, in the following way:

    "I might not have ever used Facebook."

Here we find that "Facebook" is used in only one sense, a material one which merely refers to it, namely "Facebook."

It's quite simple. You use Facebook because everybody else uses Facebook. Whence cometh autonomy ? It seems at the end of the historical use of terms like Facebook; it seems to matter what we call things.
