My Facebook usage has followed a path typical of millions:
Curiosity.
Sign-up.
Boredom.
Scrabulous.
Yep. After eight months, all I ever use it for is to play Scrabulous. Why? This will give you a clue. Enjoy.

A confessional passage has probably never been written that didn't stink a little bit of the writer's pride in having given up his pride. The thing to listen for, every time, with a public confessor, is what he's not confessing to.

BTW, I cannot see the ads. If you see inappropriate Adsense ads here, PLEASE let me know asap. Thanks.
INTERNET EXPLORER USERS: This site looks weird using IE. I am trying to figure out why and fix the problem. It's taking me longer than I thought. Suggest you use Firefox anyway.

A few reasons why I sometimes get homesick
|
I love that video.
I think I’m caught somewhere between boredom and disappointment myself.
Hi Jul… so do want to play Scrabulous?
Me too. Wanna play?
For some reason, I cannot access the video.
But, like you, I mainly use Facebook for Scrabulous, and I have to admit that I love it! I do do quite a bit of communicating through Facebook, too, but it’s the Scrabulous I’m really there for!
Charlotte - yes!
W Coyote - it’s showing up well in Firefox, and even IE works. Maybe give it another shot?
I’ve come to the conclusion that Scrabulous is the only killer app for facebook….or at least it seems to be the only thing anyone actually uses these days.
What does everyone else do when they receive an email saying they’ve been superpoked, or their funwall’s been written on… or whatever? Delete the email unread? Right!
Absolutely, cat. It is so fiddly, so overloaded with crap and meaningless drivel as to render actual communication practically impossible.
That video is hilarious. And also confirms that the only reason I keep Farcebook going is to play scrabulous with ian and a few others. It is just otherwise such a load of crap.
Oh, and I think it’s your turn, ian. Make the most of it as I seem to have ALL the stupid vowels…
Brilliant!!! Ian. You have no idea how close to home that is.
Az: and I have all the stupid one-point consonants! We should swap half with each other.
thatgirl: I’m glad my grandmother passed on long before I got a chance to poke her.
On facebook.
LMAO….Ian.
I don’t think i would have the time for blogging, facebooking and scrabulishing….though I suppose if i gave up cooking or going to work or something else….
Facebook is also good for politics.
I actually got bored with Scrabulous, believe it or not . . .
Ugh, Superpoke, Funwall, and Superwall must die!
Hey, I am not big on that sort of thing so set up my profile with absolute rubbish. I get messages from my connections on the 25th of December wishing me a Happy Birthday saying ‘I didnt’ know you were born at Disneyworld in Orlando!’ You think with hobbies like spoon bending and an education from Bumfuck University they would work it out!
