Or perhaps 3) he's just really as frustrated with OLD as many of the rest of us are, and was mostly just venting to his friends and not thinking through how doing so on Facebook might not be the best place to write these things.

This just more than ever tells me to find out who someone is in person and judge them by how they act, what they say, what they do. If we look to social media to vet our dates we will either not want to date anyone or will find a great writer who makes himself look great on paper but is nothing like the character he is trying to portrait on Fakebook.
