Social Media: Friends

The habit of "friends" tagging in social media is getting a bit redundant. People I meet on the internet are not my friends. They may be contacts, acquaintances even. But I don't complain to them about my girlfriend, or try to explain to them down the pub why Crewe Alexandra are the greatest football team in the world. You're not my friend unless you know my cats' names. End of.
