Nobody ever said I wasn’t a creepster…
I’m fairly certain I’m not the only one this happens to. You are looking at pictures on facebook, first ones that you are tagged in, then the album, then just in general. You happen upon a photo of someone you know with someone you don’t, and that mysterious stranger is drop dead droolworthy. The obvious thing to do, then, would be to click through to their profile and see what they are about, right? You read a bit, check out more pics, suddenly you know all this information about some stranger…
So what do you do? This is the type of situation that, once upon a Myspace time, would have been obvious… add them or say hello! But with the emphasis on true social connections that seems to come with facebook that almost seems unreasonable.Â
Even worse is you may actually meet this person someday through your “Kevin Bacon.” The chances are probably pretty good since you are only once removed. And then you stand the chance of accidentally mentioning something they didn’t already tell you. CREEPSTER!
Of course I am making to much of this, but I can’t be the only person out there who feels this way. Let me know what you think.
Oh, and by the way, if you stumble across my facebook profile and we haven’t already met, feel free to send me a message and say hello
