Dear Mark Ward, Have a full refund, honeybuns
I hope I’m not going to have to go emoji on this one. He wouldn’t like me when I’m emoji.
Well, this should end well.
Flounce Bingo, the national game of the Internet
There are some people the internet will miss, and me as well. And then there are some who…well…
So, I’m an admin in a hacker group on Facebook. This is challenging enough with people who are real, rather than made-up personas, and who speak English rather than some garbled patois known only to troll forums, intelligible only to RealGirls and other similarly mentally-challenged persons or entities. But not everyone who is there is real, sane, fluent in English, or respectful of boundaries.
Since I am identifiably and undeniably female on Facebook, those persons feel that I must be the most welcoming, friendly, helpful, and empathic admin.
This is a mistake.
Here is one of them. Let’s mock him, shall we?
Via completely, utterly unsolicited private message on Facebook:
Am sorry for asking dude, but Did this Edward have a security Guards? If he not, I thinks I & my sister will have a lots of fun with him
- Monday
How would I know?
- Tuesday
Sorry, just because my sister ask bout him, BECUZE we want to visited him and made him do what we want , remove some bad peo
People form Google and Facebook and take down all they dam games 2!what does that have to do with whether or not Edward Snowden has bodyguards?
Well, just talk to him, Not hit him or not made him fear
That all, trust me, Even if he have guards that may not problems to usBut thank a lots man,Am sorry for asking but,but what should with GirlyBoy, it almost done, all I have to do now is wait for 3 or 5 days that all,
1- Talk a good talking with him, %70 2- give him what he want , %0 3-Rape him , %12 4-take down my Facebook , %2 5-Kill him , %-10000
One of these can be done with him
That is not my problem.
…But since you ask, I advise taking down your Facebook
Ok, I will give the victories to all the 2600 , is that ok?
Ok, I understand , bye
Well, gee. Glad I could help.
Copper Painting by artist Marilyn McKee
How’d you like to get a $1,200 work of art for ten measly bucks? You would, wouldn’t you (you cheap-ass art-lover, you!)? Well here’s your chance to really stun someone on Christmas morning with an extravagant present that says more and better things about you than, say, an Ed Hardy nightie and a bottle of Malibu.
Haida artist Marilyn McKee, the same woman featured in this article I wrote for the Daily Dot last year, has turned to Facebook once again, raffling off this impressive copper painting. A jeweler by trade, McKee is branching out and doing more painting this year. This is the largest, most complex piece she has done yet.
Tickets are $10 and you haven’t much time. The draw is in 11 hours, 9am Friday morning. To purchase tickets by electronic transfer, message the artist on Facebook directly or email or phone. Here is what she posted on Facebook a few days ago, and there are still tickets left (two fewer if I can get the transfer done in time!):
The piece is signed by Haida artist Marilyn McKee.
The piece comes with authenticity
and has been painted on a metal canvas 2 feet across.
EMT will be accepted and cost of shipping will be incurred by myself.
Again only 94 tickets are left @10 each. so if only 50 sell your odds increase.
Draw will be Friday morning, Dec 20th @9 am or sooner if sold out.
Thank you

Yes, it’s a new flamewar on Facebook, this time over the question of whether the existence of a theistic god is central to Christianity or not! It happened on the wall of a friend who had nothing to do with subsequent events, so I’ll leave him out of this. The initial post was about an atheist’s ability to have a civilized conversation with an open-minded Christian minister. And my initial question wasn’t snarky, just curious.
and there IS no key
Ah, GPOY right there. I often feel like the smartest person in the room, but some days I literally feel like the only smart person in any room or even outdoors, all the way to the sky and including any spelunkers or snorklers currently under the surface of the planet. And then I go to Facebook, where I receive confirmation of this.
Yesterday I went to a meeting of people interested in a particular do-gooder nonprofit where the project lead spent FIFTEEN MINUTES defining the words in the title of the talk. If he didn’t think we knew what those words meant, why did he think we were there?
