FF - If Facebook Was Real

If you're like me, then you've gotten yourself a little addicted to Facebook. There are days when I could take it or leave it, but all too often, especially lately, I can't let ten minutes pass without logging on. It's cybercrack. Why? Well, for one, it's gotten me back in touch with people I haven't seen in nearly 30 years. Old grade school friends. Friends from my old supermarket days. Even my Italian cousins have gotten in on the action. And that's just fun. It doesn't have to go anywhere and usually doesn't, but there's something nice about reestablishing contact with people I grew up with, who knew me way back when, or with family I don't see very often, but I can now easily stay in touch with (and see their hot friends so's I can maximize that next visit, hee hee).

Of course, there are a handful of people who've attempted to "Friend" me that I could live without seeing again. I barely knew them then and I sure as hell don't need to know them now. And that's where today's FF comes in. This video captures what happens when Facebook fantasy meets real world reality.



Scary, isn't it? Some people are better kept at a safe electronic distance, wouldn't you agree? I should mention that this video was sent to me by a Facebook friend from my college days. Footnote to you, Maureen.

Have a great weekend, everyone!
