Why do I care about your vacaton, facebook, youtube videos?

Tlombard that's why you need to start taking screenshots.

I have this one acquaintance who apparently has a beef with one of his girl friends. That reads girl -space- friends (first mistake). Apparently be screwed her out of some rent or something. Anyway, this guy has been posting an interesting time line of events for all the world to see. Basically he's butthurt over the matter, which is fine I guess since there is money involved. So one day he stepped out of the norm and plastered her social security number all over Facebook. See the thing is, she was a tenant of his, and I'm not TOO keen on the law, but I'm willing to bet that she used her social as a means of identification, which means he basically just breached a contract by divulging NPI. Way to go [expletive]. Since you were so blinded by bitterness, you basically just shot yourself in the foot.

I'd gladly testify on her behalf if she was smart enough to sue his ass over the whole matter.

I love fb and I hate fb. I think I just love to hate Facebook.

it is pretty easy to ignore everyone except who you care about on facebook. block feed, unsubscribe, etc.

Technically yes. Not always politically practical - i.e. filtering out someone who expects you to comment/like.

I think I'm lucky there. I'm not friends with any of my relatives or "real life" close friends on facebook, so it is easy for me to block, ignore, or unfriend people that bug me.

While I'm at it. WTF is with tagging people or "checking in?" Not too long ago a "friend" of mine checked us in at a Cardinal game, which is harmless enough on the surface but it basically announces to the world I'm not home go steal my [expletive]. I didn't know they did it until that night when I got home. I called them up at like 1am and chewed their ass out. They got a swift defriending and I haven't really hung out with them since either. That is [expletive] to not respect someones privacy like that. I do not want people to know where I am at all times.

Hell two years ago when I was diamond ring shopping my dip [expletive] cousin posted on facebook that he was with me "diamond ring shopping." What a [expletive] moron. Luckily him and my gf are not friends or he could have blown the whole thing.

Actually now that I'm thinking about it, I think I'll defriend everyone on my list. Still have to keep the account open for business crap. blah.

Life's way too short to be a dick about this kind of thing or to get riled up about it.

Maybe the part about the ballgame but how would you like it if the woman you were going to propose to read on FB that you were out diamond shopping.

Chewing someone out about checking them in at a Cardinal game is way over the top. No longer hanging out with them because of it is even worse.

However, the guy who almost blew the diamond ring thing, that's the one you should -unfriend in FB and real life.

what are we going to do with all the people we fire for being complete dip [expletive] ?

internet culture sure allows the outrage addicts to get their fill.

/yes, she's an idiot for posting that to her fb page.

I'm not outraged by any means. But, even a shred of common sense would suggest that was a bad idea and wasn't going to end well....

As a person who likes to push the envelope too far sometimes ... wow this is over the top. How could she have thought this would be funny to anyone?
