You Know What I Hate? - Part II
You know what I hate? ... Applications on Facebook that automatically invite all you friends to add the application.
Right now I have over 100 pending requests, and all of them are invites to add applications, most of them from people I haven't seen or talked in quite a while.
I seriously doubt that someone I haven't seen since high school really thought 'hey, I think I should invite Bryan to add this application so I can throw a snow ball at him"

You Know What I Hate? - Part I
I realize that I hate a lot of things ... and I haven't blogged in a while so here's something I hate:
You know what I hate? ... Those Facebook photos that people post and then tag all their friends like "The Drama Queen" ... "The Princess" ... and so on.

Facebook Groups
As a Facebook user for years now, I have received my fair share of invitations to join groups, recently with the addition of applications I receive a lot more invitations than I used to. Like most Facebook users I tend to ignore them. But one caught my eye the other day and when I received another invitation today I just had to write about it.
The group in question is:
Now I have many issues with this Facebook group, so let me start that the beginning, the title. The problem is that the founder of Facebook is Mark Zuckerberg NOT Marc Zomberg. Now granted the creator of the group has updated the description to try to explain this anomaly:
Now I'm guessing the this change (the part in parenthesis was not there over last weekend) was made for one of two reasons:
1. The creator realized his mistake that he didn't know who the creator of Facebook was until people kept correcting him and then realized that it's not possible to edit the name of a Facebook group.
2. The "legal reason" is that this guy has never actually had any contact with Mark Zuckerberg and doesn't want any trouble for making things up.
My next problem is that he direct people to some random website to "get back to the old Facebook." Now I'm not sure what is motive is to send you to this random page, but I really was hoping that the whois for bestviral.com would come back with Jakob Pettersson as one of it's contacts, but alas it does not.
Next my problem with this group is that he has comments turned off. If you claim to have a plan to "get back to the old Facebook," which it seems that people are looking for, at least have the balls to turn comments on, oh but I guess he was probably tired of people telling him that Marc Zomberg doesn't run Facebook.
Finally I am upset that over 1.4 Million people have been duped into joining his group.
Edit:
Link to the group in case you are interested
Edit 2:
Apparently I'm not the only person who noticed this problem

Just Break Up?
Upon signing in to facebook this morning I noticed an ad which asked me "Just break up?" Now I haven't broken up recently but for some reason I continued to read the ad anyway. Now seeing as the ad really didn't apply to me I could have just moved on, but I was really intrigued by the fact they they seemed to have a miracle cure, the ad promises "instant relief" and they couldn't put this in an ad if it weren't true.
As I went ahead and clicked the ad I couldn't wait for the webpage to load so I could learn about this amazing product that would provide an instant relief from for the pain of a broken heart, and I thought maybe this amazing new product could be used for some other purpose the manufacturer hasn't thought of yet.
To my dismay there was no miracle product to be found, just a form that promised to email me information about how to get over a breakup, and of course also sign me up for some spam, becuase there's nothing that will get someone over a breakup faster than an email with the subject "D1s cunt V1ag3ra, Fr33 sh1pp1ng".
