*relaxed posture* Hi.  Do you use facebook?  Did you know that it was launched back in 2004?
gpt
*eyes widen* Hi, I remember it launching. Myspace at the time was so much better. They actually had the chance to buy facebook in 2005 for just 75 million but turned it down. oops.
human
i bet they still have nightmares about that bad decision lol!  I never used myspace but I do use facebook.  I know it's main color is blue but I never really thought about why. I guess I just assumed it was someone's favorite color. However, I learned recently that it's blue because Mark Zuckerberg is red-green colorblind.
gpt
Interesting, now it just wouldn't look right any other color. It's interesting you have to be 13 to have an account but these days kids just use snapchat.
human
True and to be honest, these days kids can lie about their age as well if they really wanted to get an account and were too young.  Did you know that facebook makes it's money off of ads?
gpt
*takes a step back* Yes, I actually wish they offered a pay service as the ads can be annoying. When mobile facebook first came out there were no ads on the mobile version.
human
It would be nice not to have to see them all of the time, especially the ones that are there because your facebook friends like the company and/or product.  Then again, Burger King had a thing about unfriending people to get a free whopper so that would be an acceptable ad for me!
gpt
*leans forward* Oh right, I remember that. I never did get a free whopper. I've also never gotten around to buying facebook stock, but it seems like a good investment, the initial IPO valued them at 104 billion! and they are still doing well now more or less.
human
I know! I wish I had bought some too.  Who knew that a social network site for college kids at Harvard would get to be so popular.
gpt
Those who knew quickly got rich. Facebook has become so big Iceland is writing their constitution on facebook. They're even asking for suggestions, which is I guess why they are posting it on facebook in the first place. 
human
Speaking of other countries did you know the like button is illegal in part of Germany?
gpt
*raises eyebrows* Wow, no I didn't know that. I'm surprised facebook didn't celebrate it's 15th anniversary it was just last week as the website went live Feb 4th, 2004.
human
I know! i would have liked to see something about it and maybe some new cool feature rolled out.  Yeah, the German state of Schleswig-holstein has outlawed the like button for some reason.
gpt
Sounds like something the Republic party wishes they could do. Why are they called GOP anyway?
human
I think it refers to grand old party or something like that.  Did you know that the platforms for both parties are actually reversed?  The democrats back in the day were actually dominant in the south and the republicans were in the northern states.  The republicans were founded by anti-slavery activists and economic modernizers.
gpt
Interesting, both parties have probably changed for the worse over the years. Particularly these last couple. I would like to see a realistic 3rd party or independent run.
human
I'm not sure they'd have a chance though.  There hasn't been a third party president since 1853.
gpt
*raises eyebrows* That long ago! I can't say I remember that. It's really just a lot of the same old, same old. In fact a member of the Bush or Nixon family has been on every ticket since 1928. 
human
That's amazing to me! I mean, it seems like the Bushs came on the scene in Reagan era.  The republicans have had the most presidents in our history. In fact, every president that has a beard has been a republican.  Weird fact I know but it is a fact!
gpt
*raises eyebrows* That is really weird, especially when you consider in the old days everyone had beards. It's also weird that the use of red for republicans and blue for democrats only started in 2000. I can't remember a time when these colors weren't associated with them.
