Each day I could add exciting material like:
 
- Took another nice dump this morning
- Feel asleep on the couch for an hour
- Noticed the sun came out today
- Trash day again!

No bacon? Though, actually, tacos seem to be the new bacon on Facebook...

The more I hear the more I'm tempted to create a fake FB account and have fun with it. 

Way ahead of ya. Had one for years.

My everyday life is fake. It has to be.

My wife has a FB account (with a very limited friends list), and was wondering if there was a setting to NOT let people know you're online and/or NOT let them know that you've read the messages they sent to you?
 
 

It can be a little disconcerting when you see that most of the people "You may know" are famous serial killers. 

Hi,
 
I keep getting friends' requests ... but I have yet to use it ... as much as anyone else ... I just find it boring and silly!

Oh no, that's only for "real" life. 

you all can image my problem with this post... lol.
well it would be but I have many fake FB pages :) No one in their right mind should use any real info anyplace on the internet... ANYPLACE! It's bad enough that for free you can track anyone who sends you email or visits your website, in real time. They even track your Facebook if you're logged in to FB.
 
But who the F cares! lol

I tried experimenting with People You May Know and discovered if you look at someone's profile and they look at yours (you are not friends or have mutual friends) you will appear on PYMK list. 
 
What about the search bar? I heard people who come up on your search bar list are people who are looking at you. I have two people who come up high when I type in a letter. We're not friends but I know who they are. I messed around with it and when I log into Facebook anyone I've searched for comes up. About 5 or 6 people for that letter. After a little bit the the results suddenly change. The 5 to 6 people are pushed down and above them is a mix of pages I liked, whether celebrities or a local business, and different people I haven't been searching for. I'm not sure why this is. 

 
 
This zombie fred just found me on Facebook.

So that's how it works, uh? 
 
Oh well, nothing to hide here anyway. :)
 
Privacy on the internet is as much of an illusion
...

I've always said as much when working doing internet support ... the admin folks are "inside" the system, and have access to anything and they could easily bump/bust anyone if they had the inclination. 
 
I can tell you that the FBI had a good time entering a person's house, for threatening the wrong person ... an admin that knew what he was doing! 
 
My favorite comment, though, is the obvious one ... walk outside to the street and look at your house ... it has a number, right? Notice how it can be seen from the distance. Don't think of the internet any less that that!
