A few days ago, my lunchtime reading had accumulated 3 survey items worthy of “Wait, Wait”. Today’s reading uncovered three items all related to Facebook. I wouldn’t be surprised to see one of these show up on “Wait Wait”:
- Two Vietnam Veterans reunute after 43 years thanks to Facebook.
- Cheating husband seduces a sexy blonde on Facebook… only to find out it is his wife pretending to be a 20-something. Great line from the article: “’I posed as a 21-year-old blonde bimbo, so I had to have the language to match,’ she explains. ‘I’d write them in text speak, or insert abbreviations. I’d even add the odd spelling mistake, just to make it more authentic.’”
- Teen makes mistake and gets grounded by her parents, so she creates a Facebook group to protest the grounding. Great line from the article: “no adolescent experience, in the age of social networking, is too small to start a movement.”
