Pictured here is a screengrab (Cmd+Shft+4) from my Facebook homepage. ”Make Facebook better for this person by writing on their wall” instantly clicked in my mind as “no one writes on this person’s wall and we want you to so that she is on Facebook more and we can make more money showing you/her/the world our shitty advertisements.” So I clicked through to her wall and sure enough the last post is Nov. 4 with the one before that Oct. 19…Facebook is totally trying to “include the unpopular kids” as a cover for generating more clicks. And for the record, “Falling asleep while cuddling” is just about as useful as the Facebook fan group for “sleep.” Sheesh, that is entirely autonomous diatribe that every sensible J&J reader has probably gone on at some point, no need to retread the point here.

Mine regularly suggests that I make Facebook better for my dead pets. Also, Facebook wants me to befriend Ed Westwick, which I’m totally down for but he doesn’t appear to be.

Ha. Since I discovered this and wrote about it, it keeps suggesting the same small group of people whose Facebook lives I need to rejuvenate and it has led to so much personal guilt that it’s making going on the site less attractive.
