The one that forced me to learn about ignoring updates was classic...an old college friend in Oakland, CA would literally post every day details about his hideous morning commute. It stressed me out so bad I had to put him on permanent IGNORE. Why would ANYONE think that was remotely interesting to FB friends is beyond me. The hilarious part is that he is an advertising executive. You would think he would have a better understanding of what people what to hear...but then again, maybe not!

Well the best thing I have seen so far on facebook was my old college roommate posting a picture of her dead preemie baby as her profile picture. Supposedly the baby was still technically alive when the picture was taken, but it was totally purple and looked dead. She then freaked out when a few people suggested that it was a little gross to see a picture of her dead baby every time she posted anything. Facebook can be a weird place! |

Yes you can. I have one request from fellow TOC members....if you friend request me could you include your name here in your request so I know who you are? (I think I actually have a few requests from here but I'm not sure who you are) If I don't know you I won't accept, I"m not the type of person to have 1000 friends just because. Thanks! |

JM, I am pretty sure I sent you a friend request but I couldn't figure out how to send you a message to tell you who I was. You'd think after 7 years on FB I could figure that out... I looked everywhere for the 'send a message' button and it never prompted me to send a message when I sent the request either. My initials are KF. |

Got it! I was able to see some of your pics and I recognized the wedding pics but I couldn't find a way to send you a message back to see exactly who you were. Thanks! |

In addition to the schmoopy pontifications about how wonderful my SIL is, her boyfriend has started posting anti-government rants on FB (from the sounds of it, he thinks 9-11, among other things, was a great big gov't conspiracy). Here's a hint buddy, if you want your girlfriend's brother to like you...don't go spouting crazy about his employer. I told Mr. Indy that if they move to a cabin in Montana and start stock-piling weapons, we're not going to visit them. |

Cross my heart and hope to die! Supposedly he lived for an hour or so and that's when the picture was taken, but it was freaking weird... |

Ugghhhh...the people who post TMI or post multiple times a day are the ones I've hidden or unfriended. I don't want to know every...single...thing you do! I admit to frequently checking updates, but I rarely post and I don't Tweet. I only FB. I've even gotten away from posting regularly here and TOB. If I don't know who the person sending a friend request is, I don't accept the request. The dead baby picture is just gross!!!! YUCK!!!

Yikes Kassandra I agree that is definitely strange. I get that people who have lost a micro preemie or stillborn or whatever need to grieve because that baby is a part of their life, family and story... but I'm pretty sure keeping those pics private is probably the best idea. I can't imagine putting them out there for the whole world to see on FB.

I kept my photos of my colt I lost last year private. I posted a photo of my mare standing over him on my wall and you wouldn't be able to tell he was dead if it wasn't for the blue tarp I put under him so I could take him to the "grove." Some people have asked to see them but to me he was perfect and I couldn't stand anyone saying anything otherwise so private they remain. |

I am AGHASTED and totally CONFUZZLEDATED about ANYONE posting a photo of their dead child on FB! Oh. My. God. As a woman who HAS lost a baby I cannot fathom how any mother could DO such a thing...it is private, it is a grieving situation and how anyone would put that out for all to see is an abomination to me. It's not a *&$%^ piece of trash, IT IS A HUMAN BEING who died and deserves honorable respect.
