Title: OK, guys, seriously...
Post by: East Coast Hustle on August 16, 2011, 02:13:48 PM
...you've gotta stop adding me to facebook groups. ESPECIALLY if they have any political content. They're funny and clever, but not so funny and clever that I'd like to jeopardize my job over them.

PLEASE STOP FORCE-ADDING ME TO THE GROUPS. I don't want to have to defriend anyone to protect the vanilla-ness of my public internet profile.

Pretty sure I made sure to remove your name from that.

I haven't added you to anything in months.

But I AM listed as married to you.  Should I change that?

No, that's just fine. They're already half-convinced I'm secretly gay because I own (and wear) a pink Izod shirt. :lulz:

Good.  If you left me to further your career, I'd go all to pieces.

Nah, I actually let them think there's a chance I'm secretly gay because I figure it protects me some from being shit on if they ever figure out what my actual political views are.

It's only even a concern for me now because this is a foreign-flagged vessel and I haven't gotten my MMD card yet, so I'm essentially operating without any of the legal employment protections afforded by US law.

Wait, so you didn't want to be a part of "kinks for kicks"?   :sad:


It isn't political.....  :lulz:

Actually, they wouldn't give two shits if I was part of every sleazy sex group out there. It's strictly the unorthodox politics they're concerned with. And I can't honestly say I blame them given the nature of the work this ship does. I have access to specs of things that supposedly don't exist yet, and they like to be fairly sure that nobody working with this stuff is likely to have an agenda that would raise the possibility of espionage.

And obviously anyone who knows me knows that my unorthodox politics run more towards "shut up, I don't give a flying fuck" than "ZOMG FIGHT THE POWER!", but I don't trust them to have the nuance of intellect necessary to make that distinction.

I haven't logged onto my Facebook profile in months, should I be afraid people are thinking weird stuff about me? How does it work, you force-add me to a group, my friends see I "joined" that group, but don't see I didn't add myself?

And I thought as long as I don't have Farmville things won't turn bad if I don't log in for ages ... :)

If I didn't use it to promote  my business, I probably would too. Although I do find it useful on some fronts.

It's invaluable for me as a way to keep in touch with my extremely far-flung network of actual IRL friends, so that's not an option for me. I like what it does for me, but I absolutely HATE a whole lot of things about it.

This.

Plus I get a warm fuzzy feeling when I log on and have 300 game invites.  Even more to the point, when Enabler's use of my account to cheat at farmville1 means I get irate posts from friends who think I'm sending invites.  The hate mail sometimes gets EPIC.

So to be clear, I CAN add you to my new "Sex with Kitchen Tools" group?

Given my professional specialization, you should probably make me an admin.

Better add a Fun with Edibles section while you're at it.
