To be *laughing* that this person defriended me from FB?

Is it suppose to hurt my feelings? Because, you know what? It doesn't!

Apparently telling her, on my status, that I don't agree with her opinion, was too much for her poor little feelings.

If you know you're odd, why be so defensive when people think the same thing?

Calling yourself odd is a big compliment these days, btw. Oh look aren't I special and different, etc. Best to be modest about it!

Lizzylou · 19/09/2012 10:01

I think everyone is fucking funny, you all are.

Now, shall we have a cuppa and some of Gold's birthday cake?

Lovelygoldboots · 19/09/2012 10:02

Happy birthday Goldship!! I am going to be twice as old as you on Saturday ((weeps uncontrollably for her lost youth))

ErikNorseman · 19/09/2012 10:02

I agree with tweasels :)

aldiwhore · 19/09/2012 10:04

YANBU to laugh at it.

Though I am always a little hurt, not massively, just hurt I never hit delete first!

BunnyLebowski · 19/09/2012 10:04

21 you perky wee skitter Wink

Enjoy your party!

I'm off for a Brew and to see if I can be offensive enough on FB to get defriended. I need a cull anyway.

EarnestDullard · 19/09/2012 10:05

What a bizarre thread. Your OP made sense to me Tee, FWIW.

GoldShip · 19/09/2012 10:05

Ill just pop in to add that I wish I could share my cake with you because it's amazing!!!

It's pink and black, and has like this flower bud thing that opens up when lit, into a flower.

SammyTheSwedishSquirrel · 19/09/2012 10:05

Happy birthday GoldShip. I think I may have been 21 once upon a time.

Lizzylou · 19/09/2012 10:06

Sounds lovely Gold, get it cut and dished out!
Have a lovely day Thanks

chipsandbeans · 19/09/2012 10:07

oh dear I wonder how I am perceived on fb.. I often delete people but not for any reason other than my fb is my fb and I have personal things on there which I would rather just share with close-ish friends, I am not one who has 300+ on there regardless of who they are. I often clear out people who I think must be bored of my ramblings too.. I hope I've never hurt anyones feelings like yours are OP, it does sound like you are more miffed than amused by it.

slartybartfast · 19/09/2012 10:07

gives up.

JodieHarsh · 19/09/2012 10:08

I think some people on this thread need some Vitamin B6 in their diet

As a general rule, no-one over the age of 12 should give a flying fuck about anything that happens on FB. And I speak as someone who updates their status about once every 90 seconds.

TantrumsAndGoldAndOrange · 19/09/2012 10:10

tee I would laugh if someone did something as ridiculous as defriend me on FB over pettiness.
So no YANBU.

And I'm not baffled either. Grin

But I do not do FB for that exact reason

Some people use it to do ridiculous things for no reason.

Hope you have a nice day with your DS today.

slartybartfast · 19/09/2012 10:12

i defriend people one day, then add other people another day.
i hope no one takes offence, because none is intended.

slartybartfast · 19/09/2012 10:13

and i tell my teens to defriend and block people who annoy them, and they are horrified Shock

adeucalione · 19/09/2012 10:15

If your FB comments are anything like your posts on this thread I think I am on your friend's side - that latest comment from you was probably just the last straw for her.

WorraLiberty · 19/09/2012 10:19

I have to admit this has turned out to be quite an amusing thread, despite the boring title and opening post Grin

Poor OP, I bet she wishes she hadn't bothered Lol

Oh and Happy Birthday GoldShip Wine Thanks

TudorJess · 19/09/2012 10:20

A little chippy is a small fish and chip shop.

Is X a thing or a person?

AmazingBouncingFerret · 19/09/2012 10:30

As my 16 year old niece would say...

EPIC FAIL on the amusing anecdote thread. that was missing the amusing anecdote

Grin

I think it's one of those you had to be there/know the story kinda jokes.

But the crossed wires were funny!

Happy Birthday Goldship!
(I shall pm you my address for a slice of the cake Wink)

Lougle · 19/09/2012 11:03

"You had to be there" - OK

"Private joke" - OK

"you had to be there, but it really doesn't matter what the exchange was about because it was just so funny, and why on earth aren't you finding this funny too?" - errr...no.

JenaiMarrHePlaysGuitar · 19/09/2012 11:41

Chippy as in shirty, touchy, testy, tetchy. Obv. also means carpenter and chip shop but thought it evident that I wasn't suggesting the OP was either of those things.

A brief session on Bing reveals that it has meanings other than those three, so I apologise.

I still don't understand the Op though.

I rarely defriend btw - I block boring and irritating people but have only defriended one hideous racist.

TudorJess · 19/09/2012 12:09

"thought it evident that I wasn't suggesting the OP was either of those things"

Well obviously :o I was joking Wink

Jux · 19/09/2012 12:11

I get it too. Something similar happened to me but in RL. What can you do in the face of such abject silliness but laugh?
