>maxed out at 5K friends

Really????? I don't even think I met that many people in my 30+ years of life! When you take anything to that extreme, it inevitably starts to lose some of its original meaning at some point.

The word "friend" in the context of Facebook creeps me out more and more. It devalues immensely what it really means to be someone's friend.
