So, until recently, one of your online social circles was plagued by a complete fucktard, one that made you miss the last fucktard who wasn't that bad but who nonetheless left several years ago after receiving a lot of abuse due to being a fucktard, and then in another online social circle, you find the first guy, so you give him another chance, and, well, he's still a fucktard, and even his friends tell him, "Dude, you act like a fucktard."

And by "you", i mean "me".  Anyway, i'm tired of fucktards.  The content that i'm seeing on Google Plus reminds me a lot of good Usenet discussions, and by "a lot" i mean "sometimes it's fucking exhausting to keep up with the crap."  It doesn't have the softness of Facebook that's primarily fueled by your high school classmates and your family.  And it's even higher in nerdrage quotient than LiveJournal's peak, and it's perhaps similar in quality to Twitter but has much larger caliber because there's actually room to expand commentary.  So of course we are waiting for Google to fuck it all up because they're very eager to get on with winning the "next Microsoft" title belt.

Fucktards... why did it have to be fucktards?

I've had zero problem with Google Plus. But then, this may be because I've completely ignored it. I only joined for two reasons:
(1) right when everyone was desperate to get an invite, a friend sent some kind of notification via G+ and Google tacked on an ad for Google Plus, so I thought "hey, I wonder if Google will let me sign up."
(B) A lot of people in my corner of the RPG blogosphere had been talking about using G+ for gaming, so I figured I might want to get in on that at some point. (Still can't actually do that right now, but at least I've got the account...)

My sole interaction with my G+ account is periodically checking notifications to see who these people adding me are.
