Social Networking Gaffes
Freddy Woo writes, "My school bully just friended me on Facebook!" No doubt he pokes him, and then demands his lunch money.
Personally, last month a scantily clad young woman confused me with her fiance, with whom I share a first and last name. I'm still not sure she's noticed, but she's going to be mortified when she does.
What's the biggest mistake you've made using a social networking site?

may i join in your rant?
so there i am minding my own business on scrabulous. i keep getting those 'crush' ads.
Inbox (1) 1 of your friends has a crush on you! Click now to find out who.
yeah, right.
Inbox (7) 2 of your friends has a crush on you! One of them is a Top Friend. Click now to find out who!
i don't even have 'top friends' on here. this tack ain't working, so they try a new one:
Inbox (7) 2 of your friends has a crush on you and one person thinks you're UGLY! Click now to find out who!
a nice little insight here on how ad people think we work. 'if making people feel good doesn't work, let's make em feel baaad'. the most annoying thing? sometimes the page loads without the ad, but actually, the ad is just biding its time until i go to click 'your turn' on scrabulous. THEN the ad suddenly appears where 'your turn' was a second ago and i've only bleedin well clicked on the damn ad.
i've just taken my wrath out on a passing fly which is now smeared all over the wall.
