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

Hm, it did (does?) for me, but I'd have to check when I get home, I cant fart about on FB too much when at work , I'll get in trouble :(

Basically, Facebook, the "MySpace" for posh students only...

I just noticed that the hover text on 'Unfollow post' when you comment on a status update has the rather odd wording...

"You are currently receiving notifications for this item because you own it."

Is this just Facebook trying to be funny?

Speaking up about/"correcting" the taste of people who consistently post bad music: bad idea?

yes

lol

A weekend ago there was some big festival down the street at the park and on the walk over there were little kids selling lemonade, saying it was to stop Kony. My friend said "Yeah, I'm only going to buy your lemonade if you get to keep the money, not some internet jerk."

More than a third of divorce filings last year contained the word Facebook, according to a survey by Divorce Online, a UK-based legal services firm.

"O No they has taken my facebook share value downwards"

(I didn't actually buy one, c'mon dude what did I say last week? yeah, exactly)

woof

it's good that 300,000 people like guns but not shooting them

has facebook changed its font or something? every time i'm looking at my feed right now it looks slightly different and i can't really pinpoint why. also most of my friends see absolutely no difference so it might just be me needing to get an eye check

yeah, font is bouncing about all over the place. suspect a/b testing going on or something.

thx for confirming that

there is a weird bug where if you use a profile pic that you uploaded in the pre-timeline-era as your default, it uses the 50p x 50p thumbnail and stretches it out and looks all shitty in the bigger thumbnail at the top of your page

this girl only has 21 friends, and we have zero mutual friends, but facebook has been suggesting i friend her for months:

Is she chewing on a pot leaf?

ilxors on fb should be forced to put their ilx dn in their fb name so that i know who they are when i accept their friend requests

I try to remembember to send a message after I request friendship saying 'hi it's VegemiteGrrl' etc

I'm "Jeff" on facebook.

well that's just confusing

Just search for Jeff. I'm the first and best result.

I'm a clip show.

m1ke h4rper is mh, iirc

So I mute Facebook friends who post overtly racist and homophobic stuff. This includes most, but by no means all, of the really noisy Republican crowd -- Facebook seems to have decided that I just don't want to hear any right wing US politics at all. All sorts of friends ranted about the health care decision as the end of liberty, and none of it showed up unless I went to the profiles. I don't like this, and wonder if Tea Party types are similarly being put by Facebook into endless feedback loops.

i rtecently went on vaca with someone, they took some pics including some of me which they tagged

none of this shows up in my feed, i have to go to their profile to see it

Just got the aborted fetus chain pic in ye olde newsfeed.

"the"

Getting mighty fed up with friends & even worse friends of friends tagging themselves and all their friends in pictures of their kids, that don't even have these people in the picture. My news feed is full of pictures of random children of people I don't even know. People are going to get suspicious about me.

lol mid 30s I guess

Ive never understood why people do that. They can see your feed! They will see the photo anyway!

I don't get that either. I guess people and relatives get tagged in those baby pictures so that they're alerted to see it? It's still annoying.

I also really don't get people who have nothing but pictures of their children in their profile and none of themselves. Seems a bit

to me.

Sometimes I tag my Grandma and Aunt in pictures of my dog, but that's because they're not on FB daily/not great with computers. Grandma pretty much only comments on dog photos, she loves that guy.

PART OF THE PROBLEM

what's the big deal? ilxers in inconsequential complaining shocker

gonna tag MH in everything
why you wanna deny my Grandma cute dog pictures?

worst behavior imaginable

mwahaha

if you want to insult your grandmother you could do something other than claim a dog is her on facebook

Mine is more in the comments: Hey @Ruth etc. I just checked her photos to see if I have claimed she is a dog and it seems I've done it twice over the last two years. But I STILL give her less grief than the rest of our family, so I still win.

oh, Finefinemusic, now I just know that not only will you keep responding to ridiculous trolling, you can be pushed to action by it

*makes note in trollable.xls*

Eh, I post a lot of pet photos & added you to tagging.xls ;)

I posted some pics from my DC visit and one of my smartass friends tagged himself on Thomas Jefferson's face

how can you either a) prevent certain people from sending you facebook event invitations or b) stop getting notifications every time someone updates one of their stupid events?

fucking promoters are the worst

I have been wondering this too.

Block them, I guess?

go to their page, click on the friends button, untick things
