    I deleted my Facebook years ago, before it was even made. That's how cool I am. I also don't own a television, am vegan and I'm atheist.

    Thank God for Facebook or as my friend once said, 'the grapevine gossip mill made flesh'

    The last time she updated her Facebook page could have been 2011.
    She's probably long divorced and up for it now OP!
    Go forward and ask her out!

    Just because she's married doesn't mean that she wouldn't go out with you. Never heard of affairs?

    Maybe her husband is one of the Brazillians who works in the meat factory and is useful with a cleaver

    I’m in fits of laughter here and just had to share why

    A lady has just shared a post about a girl who has been missing from Ibiza for 9 days. Have a guess who the missing person is (and the date of the original post)?

    :D:D:D

    FB got me out of a tricky situation when i discovered that a girl i was dating had two kids from a previous relationship, we were dating for two weeks and she never told me...didn't like it she hid that from me one bit, and ended it soon after i discovered

    Facebook reminds me of people's birthdays so that's handy enough.

    I joined Facebook a few months ago and deleted it again 3 weeks ago, such a waste of time and battery power.....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 907 ✭✭✭Under His Eye


    I hate Facebook and U2 but I eat meat. I must be a lunatic.

    I'm going to guess it's someone who went for an extended holiday courtesy of the Peruvian taxpayer.

    I actually thought up the idea of Facebook back in 2002, but I decided not to invent it because the idea of it just wasn't cool.
