Facebook

[Jah Lush]

Is anyone else having problems with it today?

[*Bob*]

Are you having problems looking at pictures of your ex-girlfriends again, Jah?

It's possible they may have barred you. They're all getting wise these days, unfortunately.

[Jah Lush]

Ha fecking ha *Bob*.

[TillieTrotter]

nope

[TillieTrotter]

Your turn on scrabble btw!

[*Bob*]

Come on.. tell me you haven't.

I dare you.

[Jah Lush]

*Bob* feck off. You're like an itch that needs scratching.

Tillie - it hasn't updated.

[*Bob*]

I checked out my first girlfriend on there and struck gold. Birthdays, wedding photos.. the lot.

Anyway, I was delighted to see that her chin had gone 'a bit funny' and that her teeth were slightly crooked. Shame. Time can be so cruel.

[jollybaby]

No all working fine. Looked at 150 (eek) holiday photos of someone I couldn't really stand at uni, admired someone's puppy and am more convinced than ever that my brother in law is totally crazy after reading his hourly status updates

[*Bob*]

Her husband looked quite handsome when they married several years back, but he's really let himself go since tying the knot.

[karter]

all looks fine from here..

[*Bob*]

She's still in touch with a couple of people she was friends with when I knew her.

Indeed, they were on the Hen Night.

[karter]

*Bob*, are you talking to yourself on facebook??

[*Bob*]

Is it possible to poke yourself?

I must try it.

[Jah Lush]

Seems to have been rectified itself but I've lost a whole heap of messages today. Very very annoying. Bah!

[RosieH]

Eek, it's cold turkey for you Jah.

I hope it hasn't lost my game of scrabble - I was doing rather well...

[Nero]

Is it possible that the person whose pix, wall, whatever you are looking at knows you are doing so? I've read it is not possible, but I wonder why I get people I don't (want to) know appearing under the banner 'people you might know'.

[Jah Lush]

Nope... Scrabble ok too. You're go.

[Jah Lush]

Nero - "people you might know" are friends of friends. I tend to ignore those unless I know the person and want to get in contact with them.

[*Bob*]

Every six months or so a spoof Facebook 'tool' does the rounds, claiming that it can tell you who's been looking at your profile.

And thus, a small but significant minority of 500 million users who've been busy Facebooking their old squeezes - briefly cack their pants.

[Jah Lush]

Obviously something you'd know about *Bob*.

[felt-tip]

I don't know if you still can but you used to be able to view someone's profile for one week if they sent you a message - even if they weren't your friend. You could therefore set up a bogus account and send a message pretending to be a friend of your ex-GF from girlguides or something. She doesn't remember but figures it must be for real because of all the details this 'old friend' has about her life - she replies and unwittingly invites you back into her life. Its then just a question of persistence before you win her back.

[*Bob*]

Show me a Facebook user who hasn't Facebooked their old flames and I'll pass you a hose so you can extinguish the fire in their underpants.

[RosieH]

Poor old *Bob*.

Jah, you are tetchy today - is it withdrawl symptoms, or the crazy bint with the loud voice that's making you grumpy? Headphones and camomile, that's what you need sir.

And felt-tip - that's genius, if somewhat deranged. I hope your current squeeze doesn't read the forum. Or that if she does, she has very strong locks on her door.

[*Bob*]

I'm think it's because I'm supporting the wrong coloured team on Saturday.

He'll never forgive me.
