2. some people post the most inane things, several times per day.
That's not so bad comared to the people who subscribe to several apps. I won't play farmville because I don't want everyone on my list to get farmville updates.

3. You control all the updates for applications
You can (and should) set it so that nothing ever appears in your feed unless you permit it.

4. I have some brilliant, wonderful people as FB friends
The problem with FB is that all these brilliant, wonderful people only post shit like "OMG I went to teh store and it was teh suxx0r." :P

It's faux-interaction.

6. If my friends posted shit like that, I'd have to hide them from my feed.

Actually, I find a lot of the status updates of my friends to be much like the Lounge.
