Yes I am. Tattoos, piercings and all.
But then I do spend A LOT of my time slapping 2shoes and other things .
Plus it's a great way of keeping up with my family without having to see them!

I became addicted - but just recently have taken all my stuff off there. I've now decided I don't want people to know anything about me! It was fun while it lasted - but now I see it as a major life database, full of TMI. I'm not a wanker though.

I've just changed my name on here too, because a few people in RL know my old one.

so - you like my new look????

maggievirgo · 28/07/2009 17:33

UQD, have you seen that clip with the grey cartoon character and will self's voice, explaining what fb is?? It is so true and funny. I did a search for you, cos I'm somewhere inbetween nosyparker and wanker. Nosywarker. Think I found you. I won't send you a request though....... :-/

PC has been beating me up all afternoone

maggievirgo · 28/07/2009 17:35

oh another thing, you know that symbol that appears to let you know that the update came from a phone?? well some people, no matter what they're doing, shopping, shagging, at a U2 concert, they're thinking about how their life appears on facebook, rahter than enjoying what they're doing.

Modern tragedy!

UnquietDad · 28/07/2009 17:36

maggievirgo - not seen that!

But this is the funniest and truest thing I have seen about Facebook!

maggievirgo · 28/07/2009 17:37

let me hunt on youtube now, I'll post it.

AnyFucker · 28/07/2009 17:39

FB is shit, full of self-obsessed dickheads

Present company excepted, of course

maggievirgo · 28/07/2009 17:39

enjoy

BadgersArse · 28/07/2009 17:41

what an INTERESTING thread
commendations go to UQD for hilarious text speak and Moondog for the pince nez angle and Maggievirgo for being interesting.

I love how he does the "friends" thing!

Love the "PIAF" too.

(Why on earth does it have a warning for devout Moslems attached?!)

beanieb · 28/07/2009 17:45

pMSL at that link Maggie

SoccerMum · 28/07/2009 17:45

It annoys me the amount of kids that are on there, my 12 year old nephew is on it with his DoB set to appear like he is 15, as is my 10 year olds best mate. What is the ACTUAL age stipulation?

HeadFairy · 28/07/2009 17:46

I'm on it, but I only update with ridiculous ones, "Headfairy is at Everest base camp, going for the summit tomorrow" etc.... provides a momentary distraction from the dullness of my working life

BadgersArse · 28/07/2009 17:48

nad people say " ooh look at the pics on face book"

adn I say" I'll thank you kindly to know I am not on facebook and do not intend to be found by every pupil I teach"

then I do a les dawson boob thing

I thought you had to be over 16, but I know people with 10-year-old children who have opened accounts for them.

UnquietDad...this is the row im having with my two, who are 10 and 8. I dont want them to think they can have an account when the site is aimed at older people, but they are more or less the only 2 in their respective classes not to have one.
