Drive-by am not kidnapped by aliens post

Brammers: Oh god, apparently five of my friends have invited me to be on Facebook.

Brammers' young friend: OMIGOD! I can't believe you're not on Facebook! You should totally be there!

B: I'm old, dear, the first number in my age is a four.

BYF: You're NOT old. And besides, my mum is in her forties and she's on Facebook.

B: I'm old and I have no children I need to stalk on Facebook. Also, I'll just be over there having a little cry for the next few minutes ...



Back to the work, editing and writing. Slowly catching up!

You're one of the people who I could see as being a useful user of it. Alas, most of the people who invite me just want someone to play long-distance scrabble with ;-)

lol--I ignore *all* of the games and other silly applications--just reading the one-liners my friends post about what they are up to takes enough hours out of my week (I read them in Google Reader, so as to be certain I'm not missing anything important--trying to read them all in Facebook, where the things they type are interspersed with their results from silly quizzes takes too much extra effort (unless I'm *bored*)
