BTW Cal, did you post this already on FB? :)

@ Berkie, I feel the same, hell, have not logged on in a few days.

Tell him.
Done already.  My loyalty is to him.  She's a nice enough girl but she's been torturing him lately and would give him no reason why... like she made him move out of their house a few months ago without giving him a concrete explanation.

FB is kind of weird. It is pretty neat to get in touch with some people, on the other hand, I feel like I don't "do my part" in that posting crap all the time seems so inane to me. 90% of what people post I could NEVER imagine posting myself. Who fucking cares, really?
Exactly.  I post maybe once ever 2-3 weeks.  OTOH I have friends who post like 20 times a day with the most inane nonsense imaginable.

"I'm thinking..."
"I'm tired!"
"I have a headache :("
"I'm going to the gym now!"
"I'm bored lol"

...and so forth.

I think I lasted 3 posts with twitter. And those were about bowel movements IIRC.

Meh.  I check Facebook daily, but I don't post or even comment frequently at all.

I think it's less the case of "be careful what you post" (since she didn't post it) but be careful who you are friends with on Facebook.

On the other hand, some of it is very cool, and I suspect that difference has more to do with whether I give a shit about the person posting, rather than the actual content of their posts.
Maybe. 

I don't go out of my way to put serious stuff on there, and think it odd that other people do.  But I bet in certain circumstances it can be a great way to get the word out about something important.
PDH!

I check FB, I rarely post, maybe once every 2 months.

Actually, some of our posters treat Languish like FB. "What do you guys think about my new shoes???"
"If you think this has a happy ending, then you haven't been paying attention."

I deliberately post my inane bullshit on here, since my girlfriends' parents can't read it on here. :contract:

That's assuming the other guy did not want to keep it discrete.  But it's always a good idea to be careful of what you post.  It amazes me how many people start with the assumption of privacy when dealing with duh innernetz.
