The 'friend suggestions' box just came up with jaymc! I didn't even know his real name until now. No friends in common.
WTF?

Okay, is this creepy, annoying, or perfectly acceptable - I'm pretty ambivalent about this:
So this guy I knew about 4-5 years ago, and haven't really spoken to since about that time is my friend on FB. He's constantly inviting me to join causes - probably me and everyone else on his friends list. I know he also trawls friends' friends lists and will invariably invite them to join a bajillion causes. The other day, he calls me at 4:30am. I didn't answer the phone, but he left a message. He must have gotten my phone number from my facebook info, as I've never given it to him, and he was getting kinda batshit when I last saw him, to the point that I didn't want to deal.

ok the phone call is over and above. for the other stuff, some people just blanket-send everything they get to all of their friends. it's annoying but you can set to ignore that person or delete them.

Yeah I'm pretty sure you can file a 4.30am phone call from someone like that under 'not OK'

...and people ask me why I don't have a Facebook. This is the kind of thing I can really live without, even if it means missing the occasional secret BTWS gig over it.

you don't have to put your phone number on your facebook.

If you didn't know my real name, how did you know it was me?

Maybe you have a picture in your Facebook profile?
― Tuomas, Wednesday, 1 July 2009 12:53 (seventeen years ago)
Ha, I don't know why that didn't occur to me, but yes of course.
― great gabbneb's ghost (jaymc), Wednesday, 1 July 2009 12:55 (seventeen years ago)
either add just any old body or spill your guts and contact info on facebook, but don't do both.
― Kerm, Wednesday, 1 July 2009 13:00 (seventeen years ago)
i would probably not do either.

Elmo argonaut just popped up on my "suggested friends" banner. Still can't used to the fact that you people have actual real names and the like.

Good q. I got a friend request from JH, too, and I don't even know who s/he is.
― sad-ass Gen Y fantasist (jaymc), Sunday, 5 July 2009 18:29 (seventeen years ago)
I just looked up that name, and our one mutual friend is a musician acquaintance who lives in NYC, not an ILXor.

I never take those stupid quizzes, but I'm going to start doing them in only Czech, Polish, Slavic, or any other Eastern European language. The results should be more amusing.

30% sarah palin20% obamathe rest spread out evenly between gingrich, jindal, hillary, romney, and "a 3rd party candidate"
