When I was in middle school (over ten years ago now, lol) I could have imagined people paying that much. We did a lot of connecting and socializing on Facebook. Over time I lost interest in the site though, and I think after I lost interest it got worse.

If anyone is still really entrenched in it with their friends, they may pay for it.

Who are we kidding though. Anyone stuck with Facebook for whatever reason will just take the ads.
