A FB-friend -- a smart guy who should know better -- just posted that ridiculous old  "FB is about to start charging yearly membership" trope.  It is NOT true, people.. Jeez.

Maybe his account was Scooby-Doo'ed?

FB pet peeves:

http://blog.sfgate.com/hottopics/2011/10/13/national-pet-peeve-week-facebook-friends/

A handful of thoughts:

1)   FB really ought to not allow one to like their own status.
2)   When I don’t have a lot to discuss, I’ll occasionally throw out a song lyric, but I try to keep it as both irrelevant and irreverent as possible.
3)   I automatically block any game requests.
4)   There are definitely a few friends who seem to have but one thing going on in their lives (one in particular is apparently in perpetual transit between the Bay Area, Tahoe and Maui with her husband and three daughters, and of course, everything is wonderful). Yes it is annoying, but nobody is pointing a gun to my head making me keep her as a friend.
5)   Those who want to know what I look like can click on my ‘photos’ section – and I do find it amusing what others choose to pinch-hit as their profile picture.

Somebody named Lex Truthor had the best ones:

How to suck on Facebook:

1. Repost inane "repost this" status updates.
2. Post political rants.
3. Use your children's pictures as your profile pic. Guess what? You care more about your kids than anyone else on your list.
4. Tag photos. Especially the embarrassing ones.
5. Reply to friends of your friends telling them how much they suck for not sharing your viewpoint.
6. Create awkward moments by sending friend requests to your exes.
7. "Like" every band, book, article, you come across so everyone on your list gets spammed with junk only you care about.
8. Post every single personal revelation in your life. "I can't live for everyone else anymore. I need to live for myself." Save it for your therapist.
9. Complain about your job. Everyone loves a complainer.
10. Repeatedly invite all your friends to play Xanga games. People love that the only time they hear from you is when you want a referral prize from Farmville.

I hate when your friends suck you into facebook and you have to play yahtzee against your own profile just to get your life back.  Wait, that's South Park.  Nevermind.

Oh, and I don't care about your damn farm.

This could've gone in the Mick LasSlle thread too. See his comments about FB (he doesn't like it -- prefers Twitter  ::) ) And see my comment, to which he actually replied (something he didn't used to do).

I'm impressed that two 10@10ers essentially have the same id for sfgate. Not in my case.

And thank you all for having my back. Nice that I/we have made Mick re-think something. Now if we can get him to stop posting about music...

Kind of like a 10at10club.com flashmob for Mike!

Actually, my sfgate name is my original 10@10 name, flem59.
