Facebook Talk

So I go away for two weeks to South America (like any of y’all care) and what do I miss in the Facebook world? Apparently some hot naked chick. Damn it!

In case you didn’t hear, a porn company successfully created some viral buzz by making a Facebook group centered around the pretend story that some hot chick had lost her digital camera and wanted people to help her find it. She mentioned that whoever found it would be allowed to keep a copy of all the pictures on it, which just so happened to contain a bunch of nude shots. As if I even need to finish the story, this little scenario caused millions of horny males worldwide to drop everything they were doing and go out in search of the “missing” camera.

Of course, by now people have figured out it was just a ploy, but that actually is good news. Because that meant all those millions of guys turned their attention from trying to find the camera to trying to find photos of the girl already on-line, seeing as how she’s already done a little x-rated work. And thanks to the wonders of Google, they succeeded! (THAT LINK IS NSFW! YOU’VE BEEN WARNED!)

Oh Facebook, how I missed all of your crazy antics while I was gone.

Men…okay, boys…I need you to have a seat. We need to talk. A while back, I was tipped off to a site that may ultimately change all of our lives. For the better. No, I’m not talking about Facebook, for if you don’t already know about FB, then something is seriously wrong with you.

No, instead, I am talking about Facebook Chicks. I don’t think it’ll be too long before we start talking about this site in the same breath as Google and YouTube. Gone are the days of mindless surfing through random photos in your school network in search of that elusive “hottie” that you can then start to Facestalk. For Facebook Chicks now brings us daily postings of hot chicks everywhere! Just click your state on the sidebar and voila!, you’ve got pictures of awesomeness most likely containing a few ladies you might actually know.

Of course, some people think this is an “invasion” of property or “immoral” to some degree. And to those people, I have two questions. Are you hot and are you female? Because if so, I’m sure we’d all love to see a few snapshots of you.

Oh, whew, sorry about that Mr. Giuliani, it’s only your daughter Caroline who is an imcoming freshman at Harvard this fall. For a minute there I thought it was a terrorist. Possibly one from 9/11. You remember that, right? Back when you were mayor of New York. I wasn’t sure, I hadn’t heard you mention it in the past 12 minutes, so I thought you might had forgotten.

So let’s see what your daughter is up to. I see her political affiliation is liberal. Hmm, that’s a little interesting. Wait, what’s that newsfeed of hers say? “Caroline has left the group Barack Obama (One Million Strong for Barack).” Oh. Oh my.

I really hope for your sake that you don’t lose by one vote in 2008, Mr. Giuliani. No wait, I do hope that little scenario plays out, as that would be utterly hilarious. Now to find the Facebook profile of Dick Cheney’s daughter!

The wonders of Facebook never cease to amaze me. First it was an awesome site to find out where the best parties that weekend were, then it expanded to a place where you could keep up with all your friends no matter where they went, and now it’s morphed into a place where mothers can find their kids they put up for adoption 20 years ago.

When Lori Haas joined Facebook, she didn’t know much about the popular social networking site except that most of her friends were on it. Little did she know how life-changing the online tool would be.

After spending a year searching for the son she gave up for adoption 20 years ago in phone books, adoption registries and on the Internet to no avail, a friend suggested searching for him on Facebook.

“When my friend told me about the search tool and I typed in my son’s name, Travis Sheppard, I couldn’t believe it when I saw a photo of him,” she said.

Pretty soon you’ll just be able to plug a cord directly into your brain, think about something you want, and Facebook will make it happen. I, for one, will be thinking about a delicious cheeseburger, because I’m hungry damnit.

In case you can’t read the comment by what has got to be either this guy’s best friend or some dude trying to steal his girlfriend, he let it be known that, “It’s rather phallic. In fact, it looks like a dick with wings.”

I’m not sure how long I laughed after seeing this photo, but I’m pretty sure it was somewhere in the 5 hours vicinity.

I’m having a bit too much fun with the new changes and the fear they’ve spaked amongst most people.
