Too Many Groups

Have any of you folks who are members of Facebook noticed that you can start a group for anything you want? Try this, search the dumbest thing you can think of . . . Say, you want to form a group for people who like shrimp egg rolls (I just ordered myself Chinese). Let's do a search . . . Okay. Bad example.

How about a group for people who like curly fries . . . Yup. There's like a million of them, one of which has over 700,000 members.

The beauty of these groups is that there is zero commitment. I'm a a fan of clear gummy bears, and to be a fan involves doing absolutely nothing except be wiling to have something on my profile saying I like clear gummy bears.

The reason I'm talking about this really stupid topic is that I just found a group on Facebook called: I Exude Buck-wild-ed-ness!!! There is very little explanation of what it means to exude such a thing, outside of it being a Flavor of Love quote, but it must be good if there are three exclamation points. Total number of members of this group: One. And his name is Cameron "Drama King" Jackson.

I'm not going to join this group, but I could if I wanted to because, again, zero commitment. The point is that anyone can start up a stupid group with no point. Readers, do me a favor and do a search for the most random thing you can think of, and let me know if there is an existing group/fan page. Also, Drama King, if you've searched your unique name and found this post, I'm sorry. Don't hate. Let's save the drama for your mama. That's a horrible expression, and I'm sorry I used it. I bet there's a fan page for that dumb expression . . .

Hmmm. How many of those 50,000 have successfully become pandas?

there are 1,066 people in the Matchbox 20 group and that is 1,066 too many.

Dr. Kenneth Noisewater said...

Org: Yeah, those guys are crummy.

Beck: Join up! If you're not with us, you're against us.

Does this include being "Fans" of things? Because I am a fan of "Not Being Murdered By Clowns." I figured if there is one thing I should feel strongly enough towards that I will become a fan of it on facebook "Not Being Murdered By Clowns" is one of them.

Jenni: I think I'll take murdered by clowns over surviving a clown murder attempt. Those memories would haunt me forever.
