"It leads to cyber bullying"
No it doesn't, at least it doesn't if you have the least bit of common sense. Someone harassing you on Facebook? Block them. Easy as that. If they harass you in real life, that's not Facebook's problem at all, (and you should notify the principal or police about harassment in real life).
"It's nothing compared to talking in real life".
Yeah...but it's not supposed to replace talking in real life. It's supposed to be a tool to keep in touch with others far away, or to chat with others when talking isn't an option. Can you not handle talking to someone in person when you see them, and chatting them when you don't?
"Everyone on Facebook is retarded, saying things like #YOLO, etc"
Sorry, that's a problem with your friends. Get better ones. Unfriend annoying people, and friend people you actually want to talk to. Problem solved!
"They are evil, they r spreading mai personal informashun!!11"
No. They are not out to get you. If you aren't some criminal, why would they care about one of the hundreds of millions of people that use Facebook?
"I don't want people to see my personal information."
Then...don't put any? All you need is your name (Not even full name, you could use a nickname or abbreviate your last name.) People seeing your name and a picture of you (which is optional but recommended) is not gonna kill you.

Anti-social would imply that I hate social activities altogether or that I shun the very idea of being social. I don't shun or hate it; I just dislike when people become over-socialized and dwell useful relations into a meaningless stream of information. (Information that at times is better untold or repeated) [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Vines Wrap Antisocial? [/quote] [Edited on 12.30.2012 8:45 AM PST]

I don't hate it, but I dislike how some people use it.

I deleted my facebook years ago. I'm quite fine without seeing pointless status updates, people who pad their friends lists and barely talks to more than half of the 500+ they have, and photo album whores who have thousands of pictures of themselves like it's some sort of contest lol. I told all my real long distance friends if you wanna keep in contact email / phone me. Facebook was too much crap with very little meaningful conversations with friends for me.

Because people like to hate things that are popular. I don't know why, ask them.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Vines Wrap OT: I don't like Facebook because of all the annoying people on it. I know I can just block them, however I already have like 1000 friends I just added throughout the years because I thought having more friends was better for some reason. Big mistake. I'd have to make a new Facebook account to rid myself of this vermin, I'm too lazy to though[/quote] Yup, you really shouldn't just go about adding as much people as you can. Defeats the purpose of Facebook I feel, to keep in touch with people you actually care about.
