"Can I say you're my girlfriend on Facebook?"

...if anyone puts that in the out of context thread I'mma kill them.

lol, i thought about it, but then thought better about posting it.

also, yeah, trayce, that is weird. but good for you and your friends for keeping the faith.

Facebook is a good way to discover which of your friends are bigots.

Hah, I'm kind of glad I haven't seen too much of that so far.

true true, especially during the Aus federal election.
So many such and such has joined the group "I bet i can find 1000000 arseholes who hate Kevin Rudd" update message thingys

xpost

Yeah and all the 'if Howard loses I am moving to the US' crap. Just fuck off.

I thought "just fuck off" at people who said the sameabout howard winning last time round, I have to say (the statement as it stands is pointless grandstanding).

Me too.

It was sooo nice to see these idiots have a giant sook when Rudd won though. 'Oh noes we are doomed' etc. Never mind all the groups Howard fucking marginalised. Uh oh I'm on that soapbox again.

other than my one super-catholic friend from london, no bigotry in my friends. and even he is extremely liberal. just very very pro-life.

Start me on pro-lifers and that soapbox will come out again.

i mean, i give just a bit of lee-way to my polish catholic friends, unless they're homophobic. which he is not. he's also not some sort of raving pro-life lunatic.

In recent years I've had to distance myself from friends/family who proclaim rubbish such as 'gay is not normal/healthy' or whatever. There's no excuse for that way of thinking anymore, particularly in a 'developed' country.

On second thought, that one is just family.

Johann Hari is SO glad he opposed the catastrophe in Iraq from the beginning. Oh, wait...

^^^^ unfuckingbelievable

r u one of his 848 friends? He's popular. Or desperate.

no im not!

It's a straight toss-up between Enrique and Richard Littlejohn as to who is most wound-up by the existence of Johann Hari.

I smell sitcom

i'm gonna win this thing

Looking at Hari's groups he's hating back on Littlejohn, but tolerating our man at ILX pretty well ----->

Richard Littlejohn is a F*cking C*nt! ▪ Jon Gaunt and Richard Littlejohn, for people who don't like thinking. ▪ Richard Littlejohn is a moron and a twat ▪ I hate Jon Gaunt

We should have a public figures/celebrities who leave their Facebook pages accessible to all thread. I dunno if they do it out've vanity or ignorance of privacy options.

Patrick you forgot Johann's 'every time I see an Enrique post my penis shrivels a bit' group.

When I first saw Johann's column in the Guardian I spent the first month or so thinking he was a woman coz the byline pic was so lesbian-looking, so it wouldn't surprise me if his penis was v shrivelled.

^^^this only in the independent

I stand corrected. It must have been in my short lived Indie phase.

so um

friendfeed is awesome.

but i know everyone's sick of this shit by now so i'll shut it.

ok, I don't get friendfeed

Is there a way for domain owners to remove former employees from the associated Facebook network?

waht is friend feed

u mean news feed

its a thing

its the good parts about facebook (keeping up with the stuff people want to share w/you online) without the zombie bullshit, and it doesn't ask that you add a dozen apps to "your page" to keep track of it all. just add once and you're up.

http://friendfeed.com/about/

i know right

but whatever

none of the google results for that username are me anyways lol

except that one youtube vid w/ned

I think I figured out your name was Justin a long time ago.

Sort of reminds me of when I figured out an ILXor's real name by anagramming his username.

Yes, I too remember Jonh_Smith

its the good parts about facebook (keeping up with the stuff people want to share w/you online) without the zombie bullshit, and it doesn't ask that you add a dozen apps to "your page" to keep track of it all. just add once and you're up.

Not that interesting a story to be fair but definitely enjoying the "thousands of pounds of taxpapyers' money" jab in there - it was only a sexual harrassment case for a convicted stalker after all. At least the Mail actually mentioned his previous conviction, unlike the Metro (where I just read about this before looking it up) which busted out "taxpapers' money" as well but without any other context to the case

split up after a row over whether to watch the Eurovision Song Contest on television in April last year, the court heard.
