    Default OMG STOP

    My mom messaged me on Facebook with a post like, "Hi Michael my beloved son I love you and I hope you realize that processed food is bad and you should eat organic."

    Thanks, mom. I guess?

    Do you get random messages from people you know on social networking sites? Like unexplained advice?

    My grandpa, bless his heart, sends me conspiracy theory chain emails on a near daily basis. It's usually about how Obama is secretly in the Illuminati or something, I don't even know. I don't have the heart to tell him to stop or block him or anything.

    Also recently I posted something about Deus Ex on Facebook and my mom commented "BE SAFE!!" for no reason.

    My grandpa could make every single post in the "forwards from grandma" subreddit and no one would notice any difference.

    It's anecdotes like these that really make me appreciate the fact that my family has the self-awareness to avoid doing cringe-worthy things like this.

    For the two reasons stated above, I do not allow family to be on my facebook. Not even brothers. No family.

    I hardly ever get any messages from people, so I couldn't say

    My grandpa used to send me bigoted emails about Obama and all kinds of other stuff. Sweet southern baptist Jesus he sent those a lot.

    Because I'm one hell of a butler.

    Yeah, I'm not really into the reddit community as a whole, but the odd subreddit here and there is worth checking out in my opinion. Not every part of that site is like f712u, like most people who never have been there believe.

    This is why I stopped using Facebook, so I don't have family sending me random messages about random stuff that could be embarrassing to me. :P

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    This weird lady who has been in love with my dad for as long as I can remember tries to message me to chat every once in a while and sends me links to her Christmas albums to download and trout around the holidays. She keeps sending me friend requests and just won't stop.

    When my mom first got fb she proceeded to reply to everyone of my status updates. She does still post on quite a few of them.
