Being a lousy friend on Facebook

Posted January 28, 2010 * Comments(2)

The Oatmeal offers many delights. Today’s installment features examples of how NOT to be a friend on Facebook. If you are a Facebookie, you will laugh. Otherwise, move along. Here’s a preview.

I will confess to being at least one of the character types in this post, and I have friends (or perhaps I should say “friends”) of all of these types. In your comments here, please change names to protect the innocent or to at least avoid excessive shame for the guilty.
