Really?
Two of the quickest ways to get me to “hide” you on Facebook:
1. Take a ton of quizzes.
2. Update your status constantly about your pregnancy complete with pictures of your sonograms/baby bumps (this is something you should just share with your significant other and maybe your top 20 friends and family – not the 300 or so people on Facebook)
The quickest way to get me to defriend you:
Taking this quiz, complete with this comment…
My two biggest concerns with this:
1. Unless God created this quiz it cannot be that accurate.
2. The “this is about right” comment – I don’t really need to know when you are going to shoot for having a baby – again this is information that should be reserved for close friends only.
Having a baby is a wonderful thing and I think it just cheapens it by using Facebook as a way to share it. Start a blog or something and send the links to the grandparents and your close friends. Please do not send it to me unless we have communicated personally in someway within the last few months…

How do you know God’s not on Facebook? I think I’ll make him my Friend today, in fact. http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=home#/pages/God/10141208299
I’m with you on the quizzes. Enough already!! And what about the late night posts of parents whose newborns aren’t sleeping? I don’t really care what color the child’s poo is or how much breast milk mom had to pump today.

Wow – you’re Facebook friends are way more gross and detailed than mine. I guess I should be thankful?
