No my name ain't baby, it's Janet. Ms. Jackson if you're nasty

This entry is dedicated to our good friend Pee-pants.

When you register for a facebook account, one of the first inquiries faced is "full name". If you are even marginally mentally sound, this part is not hard. Actually, I know for a fact that you are unable to register for a facebook with a ridiculous name. I've tried. It was a job assignment, don't ask.

So, when asked the question "full name", what is your typical answer? When filling out a job application, do you insert a clever nickname amongst the title your momma gave you? I feel that the beloved creators of facebook intended for their site to be for networking, yet there are several individuals who actually use it as a receptacle for their stupid expressive garbage made of cute quotes and wingdings.

We here at DPTonF used to cherish the purity of facebook compared to other less easy to navigate and less easy to stalk on social networking sites. Unfortunately, with the development of applications and "boxes", we've lost some of that clean, sleek look we love. At least all of this clutter is hidden on other tabs and not forced down our throats, because no, I don't want to see the precious cartoon penguin you adopted and named Cooter.

I digress. Facebook wants you to use your real name. Otherwise they would let you insert any old word or emoticon into your name field. We all know your middle name is not Sagittarius, Hottie, or "<3 ;)". And if it is, send your mom to us. We need to have a talk.

Kisses and skip-its,

The Jew

  1. RAWR that shit pisses me off!

    Really I don't want to join you in Mafia Wars and I really don't give a fuck if our movies are compatible.

    I miss the ORIGINAL wall where you could go in and fuck around with what other people posted...

    that and when I would post a picture of myself passing out in the bathroom (you know the pic) it would only be seen by those I know and actually in COLLEGE.

We'd love to hear your comments, nice or nasty. But preferably nice. We can dish it out, but we can't take it ok?! Just kidding, don't hate the player, hate the game...or something like that.
