Since I've been asked to tone it down on a friend's Facebook page, I thought we could think of other things that have happened to us on Facebook and make a 101 things. Simone, David, and Ryan collaborated with me to make this list. Bold the ones that apply to you.
Have you ever:
Been pleasantly surprised by someone's delightful status updates when you didn't know they had it in them
Had a Facebook-centric nightmare
Had someone tell you he was un-friending you on Facebook because his wife wanted him to
Farted in fb's general direction
Flipped off someone's status update
Entertained the idea of just deleting your Facebook account
Rekindled a friendship with a high school person you'd written off because you thought they were judgemental and found out on Facebook that wasn't the case
Accepted everyone who requests you as a friend
Had someone tell you they abhor your "flagrant touting of an evil man" (Obama) on Facebook?
Unfriended someone you already had a strained relationship with because their annoying profile picture was the last straw?
Unfriended someone because their status messages were too boring?
Made a passive-aggressive status message with the intent of catching the attention of one particular person, but not admitting it
Had people talk to you in person about your status updates (because they are awesome)
Unfriended someone because they posted thing supporting "Yes on 8"
Unfriended a-sort-of-friend you'd already accepted as a friend because they became a "fan" of Old Navy
Added people that you later forgot why you added them ("Who is that again?")
Witnessed nasty replies to you that were taken back down within 5 minutes
Tried to add people who shockingly never confirm you, which is baffling and raises distress levels over what you might have done to them
Been told by your spouse that your replies to everyone elses posts are abundant and hilarious (your A material) but that your replies to their posts are non-existent
Been witness to picture posts which greatly undermine your admiration for your friends
Been witness to picture posts which greatly bolster your admiration for your friends
Felt exactly like you were in junior high again because of something that went wrong on Facebook

Untagged your name from a friends picture because you 1)look fat and 2)don't want people who haven't seen you in a long time think you look fat.

I am now desperate - DESPARATE - to be your facebook friend. That's the extent of my stalking, though. I think.
Ooo! Yes let's!
Had a former boss berate you on facebook.
Found out your best friend was engaged via facebook.
Wow. Lauren might be a contender for the win.
