To be a bit startled that this person is on my FB friends list

I am a combination of lazy/welcoming/aware that it works as promo, when it comes to Facebook. So I have quite a lot of 'friends' that I either met once or who know someone who I know. I' m generally not bothered (My FB page includes a bit of self-publicizing of my work).

But a while ago, I had a minor spat with someone in the category of 'not actually sure who you are but we have some mates in common'. This person threw a MEGA tantrum, allegedly deleted own FB account because I am such a horrible person (and several of the mutual acquaintances send e lots of 'You are a really bad person' messages).

Let's say I gave about five percent of a fuck anyway. But now, for some reason, posts from this person are showing up on my FB feed again. And apparently we are 'friends'.

Not entirely sure whether to ignore, unfriend, or send a passive aggressive message along the lines of 'Oh, have you decided I'm not a cunt after all, or something? Or are you just in need of something else to have a tantrum about?'

I always cringe at fb spats. Maybe teenagers have some excuse but adults? Really? Good grief. You are embarrassing yourselves and are probably a laughing stock.

Nevertheless, what you wrote also applies here. 😆

Sounds like you might be the common denominator OP. You should deactivate your own FB for a month - might be positive!

Wouldn't dream of de-activating mine. Far too entertaining.

Just seen this. Whoops!
I do love a good fb etiquette debate! Good job you lot have me and Worra around to enlighten you on the finer points. Grin
