I signed up for Facebook the other day, and you guys gotta talk me down
because it is too damn tempting to pull up profiles of the College Rethugs and neocons, and then send them messages asking why there ass isn't in Iraq defending our freedoms...

If I can't make myself resist that urge, I'm gonna get banned from Facebook! And I've only had the account for a few days!

AHHHHH!!!

1. Don't do it!
Instead, write shit about them (in a generic fashion; don't mention names) in your own profile. It's not as cathartic, but still somewhat so.

Where are you going to school? PM me if you want a DUer facebook friend who you've never met! :toast:

7. I called my girlfriend (who is also a DUer and is also on Facebook)
to try to get her to talk me down.

She didn't.

In fact, she encouraged me to start a group. "Young Republicans who support the war yet refuse to enlist"...


I think I'm gonna do it.

8. Oh yeah, start the group.
I started a Flying Spaghetti Monster group at my school. Someone else beat me to the "I hate hypocritical conservatives on Facebook" group, though!

5. Ahh, facebook. It's an addiction.
Never had that particular urge, though. I've gotta say, just looking at them just pisses me off. I don't think I could compose a coherent message. :)
