...quaecumque sunt vera, quaecumque pudica, quaecumque justa, quaecumque sancta, quaecumque amabilia, quaecumque bonae famae, si qua virtus, si qua laus disciplinae, haec cogitate.
-- Phil. 4:8

Uncountability

"I don't have much friends," a friend remarked sometime ago on Facebook. The grammar Nazi in me almost jumped at the incorrect quantifier, but I held back and pondered a little.
When you think about it, his quantifier there makes very much sense. Friends are uncountable. You value some like treasures; some are just plain bad company.  
And this is especially true in the context of social networking. It doesn't matter how many Facebook friends you have; it does matter how much.
