Facebook IS the bully

Once upon a time, I created a Page on Facemuck. It was just a place to share my origami. It was nice, people liked it. It was like a cozy, sunny room with an open door. I could come and go as I pleased.

But this was Facemuck, land of the whore and home of the knave, where all that matters is making money. Big Bully constantly annoyed me with nags about my “business”. Then along came the NEeeew PAyage Expeeerayance. The door slammed shut. I could still go into my Page, but it wasn’t mine any more. I had to change clothes every time I went through that door, and the door was always locked behind me until I changed back.

I locked the door and barred it.

Now I have a Group. It’s another pleasant room, a cheerful place where there’s always a little party going on. I can freely go in and out.

I wonder how long it will be before Big Bully thinks up a way to ruin that too.

wait until Facebook sees my flamethrower

Blood Sport – Sort of

Once in a while I go hunting on Farcebork. Today I easily bagged four Romance Scammers. Or maybe (or more likely) only one, with four accounts. The comments I sniffed out are sad attempts to honeybutter a woman. I post them here – with little editing needed, since the names are undoubtedly fake – because they are such a nice example of clustersucking.

Hello [redacted],i sincerely apologize for the unconventional approach to you and i must comment you have a good profile and post too,i’ve been trying to send you but it’s not going through i decided to drop a comment if you can send me a friend request if you don’t mind…Thanks and have a wonderful day ahead

Andrew Goddard
I always enjoy … what you share here on Facebook but we’re not friends yet, I have tried several times to send you a friend request but it’s not going through. I’ll be so glad If you can just click into my profile and send me a friend request so we can talk more on messenger. But If you find this message embarrassing please pardon my manners, thanks..

Alex Fair
You’re so stunning that I forgot my pick up line. I try sending you a private text but it doesn’t seem to work. You have an interesting profile and it really caught my heart, please send me a friend request or private message if you don’t mind .. Thanks

Ronald Watson
Hi, I don’t know if you are comfortable with this but i am sorry for interfering on your profile, I don’t know if we could be friends? … I really don’t want to be rude to send you a request without your permission, I don’t know if it will be convenient that you kindly send me a request. Hoping to receive a friendly request from you, I will be really grateful.Thanks and remain bless

CENSORED

I followed this link from Twitter, enjoyed it immensely, retweeted it, and tried to post it on Facefuck. I was prevented from doing so. FINE! I will share it even more. If you think it is offensive, don’t share it.

3 Dads

I’ve encountered Facecrap’s nannying before, and I will never condone it. Why stop people from posting good things, but allow bullying and bullshit?

Hoppin’ New Year

A little more interesting start than some. My onlybegottendaughter reappeared (e-mail changes can have a dire effect on communications) on the morning of Dec. 31. Did she just e-mail me? No-o-o-ooo, she sent me a friendy from Facebluck. Hokay, must be some reason I got back in there a coupla moons ago. I had to reset my password to log in this time (I swear I had it right, but Facefook wouldn’t take it yadda yadda) but I was going to do it no matter how many captchas I had to squint through. It takes something to drag me into Facefook.

Then I find out that she has managed to find her father, whom I haven’t seen in nemmine how many years. Danged if she ain’t as bull-headed as me.

Voilà!
