I'm sure if the Facebook people ever looked at our comments they'd think the same thing.

I reposted this as well as the other ridiculous incarnation about bombs in your house and such. I felt like annoying people yesterday and making them paranoid. Usually I am the first to debunk these rumors among my family.

I got private message that said i was reported for talking to someone I don't know which is against the rules? they said I have 30days to reactivate my account or my account will be banned?
i knew it was fake because i just check this message and i got it july of this year and im still not banned and um.... that caught me was when it said i can get banned for having more than 1 account because my cousin also has facebook which is under the same isp and yes I do have another account same name which I use other one to play games and also I was told that I can make 2 or 3 account if I wanted too as long as I'm not cheating on a game like tx poker sending myself chips haha. at first i thought it was real because i did said a lot of swearing but i did removed the swearing words from profile in june but this pm was recieved in july.

You don't have to be a moron to use Facebook or at least I hope that is true.
I use facebook to keep track of old friends I don't want to put into my email contact list and relitives. Closer friends and relities are in my contact list. If they were one step further away and I wouldn't want to contact them at all. I go of FB a few times a month, sometimes not even that often.
For that it is great!

Why do people believe this kind of nonsense? Simple! Because the majority of the human race has been so desensitized by things like the news that whatever they see somewhere (especially on tv or the internet) it certainly MUST be true! It's like Y2K all over again. One person says something and everyone just believes it. Dumb asses.
