Four hours in and I'm in trouble!

Invited by an old university chum so off i toddled, even uploaded a picture so i could be recognised  scared2:

Thought i was quite safe, just search for the friends you like.  However, the easiest way to search is find your most popular/organised mate and find their friends.

Already had an ex-grope and an ex-employer invited me as friends.  I took the cherry from one and a laptop from the other and still can't find the courage to press 'reject'.

Can of worms...

Either I'm just plain dense or 'arf asleep still, or you have suddenly become very foreign over night.
The words make sense, but the sentences are somewhat a bit of a mystery. confused:

Think I get the jist of it.
You've had a night out on the ale, nicked a laptop, 'ad a shag and havin' worms for supper.

Different.  whistle:

I've just had an invite by two nice girls I've never met (honest Mrs Degsy) although I might know their mothers!  whistle:  How do they get you email addresses?

I understood it perfectly.

He had just joined facebook.  He went to university.  He has few friends so he contacted the friends of a friend.

A lady whom he deflowered and a former employer from whom he stole a lap top have contacted him.  He wonders whether there is a love child of the union, and whether the police will ask him to help them with their enquiries about a missing laptop.

Facebook and similar sites can be very dangerous places with which to get involved  noooo:
Anyone thinking about signing up needs to be aware of this.

The idea is OK but as with any site that invites you to post photographs, career details, names and contact details etc it should be treated with extreme caution.
The main problem is that there are a lot of arseholes on the internet. It is not all about "good guys".

Growler, it's not an elitist union nor much fun really tbh.  Quite addictive though as once you find a pal you can look at their pals, you quite quickly find that your ex best mate Dave has married your ex missus and has children that are boffing your own.

I have limited what I've put in and gone for a ropey old piccie (non from my ifonlyyouwereasgreatasme.com website).  I only posted a piccie to limit those contacting me, otherwise there'll be a list of 500 John Smith's with a big ? instead of a piccie.
