What do I need to kiss to get my face on your page? Why is your page not all about me just like mine is? You obviously don’t love me as much as I love myself. You are denying our friendship.

I’m Hurt. John Hurt. You may know me from such films as The Elephant Man.
Why did you choose the one formal picture which I am not in?

Maybe if A’s head wasn’t so big, B would be able to see herself in the pictures.
Maybe A is going to cry herself to sleep on her huge pillow.

Thank’s…I knew you’d understand.
You were pretty too… ( jokes )

You’re totally my BFF !!

Even though A is “VERY” hurt. I think B really
put her where she belongs…..Out of the picture!
*no joking*

A is really in DENIAL about how close she
thinks she is with B. I think maybe a facebook
intervention is in order. Just joking…lol

I wonder why “The one formal picture” is the only one B is smiling in and the only one A is not in ???

A: I’m really telling you this because I’m terribly insecure and the only way I can feel good about myself is if I appear in everyone’s Facebook profile picture. Because it’s obviously all about me and not you and your profile. Psh. I’m going to go stuff my face with bonbons now. (jokes) [they're actually twinkies]

Shouldn’t the last message (12:16pm) be from Person A and not Person B? I can’t make sense of it otherwise.

You know, I’d laugh, but this stuff still happens when you’re in your 30s. Facebook: Bringing out the insecure 15 year old in everyone.

I had a roommate like that. He didn’t care what he said, as long as it had the disclaimer, “just kidding,” after a short pause.

Is “A” emotionally hurt or physically?
She needs to be physically hurt.
Just kidding!

I’m more concerned that A is under the impression that a friendship can be made or broken because of a choice in Facebook picture.
It’s like people who stop being friends because they’re not included in another person’s Top 8 on MySpace. You know who does that? FOURTEEN YEAR OLDS.

If MySpace and FaceBook had existed back in the 1980s nobody would have written “The Greatest Love of All.”

This pretty much sums up what the social networking sites eventually degenerate to. It’s no longer about networking or connecting. It’s about getting my face on everyone’s site, collecting the most friends and then ignoring them because who can keep up with 300 “friends,” especially when you are busy monitoring who isn’t putting your face on their site.

You know what? This exact thing happened when I (A) checked in on my wife Shanikqua’s (B) FaceBook. The “formal” pic she chose was her in a cocktail dress, holding two drunk bozos in twin headlocks under her twin headlights (set for fog).
She did look pretty; I’ll give her that…

I’m thinking A should’ve just put her comments in quotes - then B would’ve known she was being sarcastic.
Ahhh, webspeak is wonderful, isn’t it?

#23 GhostWriter

Checking the timestamps, it would appear that the most sleep was lost by B, as she anxiously generated the line, “It’s the only pic of me smiling…” Ten hours ofhang-wringing, and that’s the best you can come up with? What about, “Back off, Creeper- since when do we have a friendship?”
That’s the one I get most of the time…

As I read this note I have a soundtrack playing in my head. I couldn’t place it at first but I think it’ s The Cure.
Whenever I’m Facebooking you
I feel like I’m on probation
Whenever I’m facebooking you
It’s like another violation

Or maybe B could of said something like; My mother wasn’t in the picture either, you don’t see her asking if I’m denying her paternity!
Jeeze Louise….Grow up and get a life.

You should never try to make jokes online. They get lost unless you put a smily face. A missed out on that lesson.

This is a serious syntax question:
What if you include sarcastic quotes around phrases like just kidding?
“No worries, just teasing.” Apparently I’m not important to you. “JOKES!”

Gee, I want to hunt down and hurt people who put my picture on their networking page.

OMG! How did this end up here?
OK, let’s get the back story on this. A bunch of us went to the Spring Formal here at Sweet Valley High. My BFF, A, booked a limo so we could all go in style but it never showed up. So I hitched a ride on a logging truck and got to the dance but I smelled like Newports.
Then A, ignored me the whole time. I saw all of them taking a group picture so I had to run over there and get in. They took one picture without me.
We all hung out for a while but then they all left without me. So I didn’t even get to ride in the limo I chipped in for.

And all of us are reason#963 why I’m glad facebook wasn’t around in high school…or college…or early 20’s drunken benders.
