Ringo is, apparently, 'jam hot'. That's nice. I like status updates. Best of all, I like the updates I have to read two or three times until I understand. Not because they are clever, but because they are so brilliantly stupid. Even now they have taken the 'is' away, some people completely fail to have updates which make sense. Like this, for example:

"Laura thailand 2day cant wait with my hubby x."

and

"Sarah gem your well wrong!!!!"

But I especially like it when people go all deep and meaningful with their little boxes. One of my oldest friends in the world is awesome for this. Here is a recent delight:

"Lee its been great but is it the real thing i love you but will it work out it just feels so right"

There was another one along the lines of "Lee why is life like a prison without bricks but still its great oh man". Word, brother.

So anyway. Let's talk about our friends' updates. Or Ringo's car. Whatever.

Oooh, I've suddenly been overcome with the Thread Fear now that I have realised this is the first thread I've ever posted here and it could very well fail...

Lilo, you've embarrassed all of us, I think you should go back to t'other place and think about your actions.

I tend not to read status updates, being a slave to twitter.

If my fucking job involved me reading fucking books all day I'd never touch the fucking internet.
You should count your blessings and get reading.

I won't join Twitter. I have enough websites tabbed on Firefox I F5 continuously throughout the day already.

Is Twitter *just* updates? Is there any more to it than that?

twitter is just another widget on my netvibes homepage. Yeah, it is pretty much like a bunch of status updates, but it's also a kind of resource. It can be good for firing questions into, like Yahoo Answers, only with your friends.

I like that Thorn's picture of himself is one with a hazy sunshine and a handsome expression, but still hasn't cropped it enough to keep the others out of the picture, so VP's eye is sort of looking on in the style of Un Chien Andalou.

I'm friends with VP, though, so I did get to stalk his wedding via her, though.

One of my work mates, in real life I wouldn't, but if I were to go purely on her facebook picture then I definitely would.

Such is the nature of the internet. You get to choose how attractive you want to be.

I'm just as fucking hot as my pictures McDirts. I'm pant wettingly cute, but the pictures are actually in fucking scale so when meeting me I should hold up a printout of facebook and cut out the profile picture and peep through.

I recently sold a festival ticket on the popular auction website ‘eBay’, and the chap who bought it has just sent me a message on facebook as it turns out he knows some of my friends and saw my name in photo tags. Imagine that!
I don’t have to imagine it – it really happened!

His profile picture does not discount the possibility that he is an androman. Lol ($$)

Maybe it's being blocked? Go here and enter the facebook url into the box at the bottom of the page. This will at least let you know if your company is blocking it or not.

Of course it's being blocked, Roy. And the link that you provided is also being blocked, Roland, FYI.

Wow. I've never not been able to get around firewall issues by using the link provided. You should probably be quite worried that you're about to get sacked. Poor Babb. [Frown]

I work for the (local) GOVERNMENT Ralph. They're quite strict about what they let you look at on their computers. I can't even book gig tickets. Stupid (local) GOVERNMENT.

It wouldn't let me crop it anymore than that, for some reason, so yeah. I have to put up with some other plebs crudding up one of the few decent pictures of me.

But you used to be able to access Facebook, no? So something has changed. And I suspect it will end up being your place of employment.

I went to add you through VPs friends list and couldn't see you. What the hell? Anyway if you know my name why don't you send me a friend request. I pretty much accept all of them unless they're from a total total jerk.
