If you're tired of all of this social-networking nonsense, Hatebook might be the answer. Sure, it's a social network, but it's a social network dedicated to connecting you with new people to hate. Your visitors are called suckers, and you collect haters, not friends. People who comment on your profile send you warnings, and the eventual goal is to make enemies and take over the world.
Hatebook looks a lot likeFacebook. It's clean and fully featured, and the color scheme is red and white as opposed to Facebook's blue and white. Red is a passionate color, after all. On the front page, the Hatebook community encourages you to connect with the people you hate by uploading blackmail material, publishing lies, collecting gossip and hate points from the people who hate you back, and customizing your hate profile with photos and videos.
Hatebook has all of the features of a social networking service. You can customize your profile with video and photos, and you can invite friends to the service, add people to your enemies list (you even have a "homies" list for those folks who'll die last in your world takeover plan), add warnings to other people's profiles, and search for new people to hate. The community at Hatebook is pretty big, so you won't have much trouble finding someone in your area worth hating.
Hatebook, for all intents and purposes, is simply a parody of Facebook. But it's got its own community and its own users, so it works pretty well as its own social network. When you sign up, you give the service your zip code so it can place you on a Google map along with other haters in your area, and your profile asks you for movies that bother you and reasons why you're better than everyone else. My only warning to Hatebook users is that there are no real privacy controls, and the site is probably not safe for children and only marginally safe for work, so tread lightly.
Aside from that, if you're looking for someone to hate or you just think social networking is a laughable idea, Hatebook might be the perfect network for you.
