This is a question Social Networking Gaffes

Freddy Woo writes, "My school bully just friended me on Facebook!" No doubt he pokes him, and then demands his lunch money.

Personally, last month a scantily clad young woman confused me with her fiance, with whom I share a first and last name. I'm still not sure she's noticed, but she's going to be mortified when she does.

What's the biggest mistake you've made using a social networking site?

Whoops!
On F'book, I set up a group for people who went to my old school before it amalgamated.

All was going well, people discussing memories, favourite teachers, hated lunches, etc.

Then, a girl (Laura) joins and talks about how once we joined the other school, she stopped caring, and didn't work anymore. This led one lad (Ryan) to point out that she was, and I quote "Always a bit of a mong". Charming.

This was then made even better by a 'person'* who used to bully me and many others at school joining, and saying to Ryan "Haha, wt wud u no about bein a meff, u wer 1 of my victims!"

This made me laugh at how pathetic his spelling was, then made me fume about how this 20 year old was bringing up bullying to someone he hadn't seen in 5 years, and laughing about it.

To add to this, since this new 'person' had joined the group, the spelling seemed to have gone out of the window. He started a topic called "Wot woz da worst fing to happen at *school name*"

Once again, this lad is 20.

After this, I was unimpressed, but thought I'd just leave it to rest, but it was frustrating to not see anyone telling him to shut the fuck up.

This came to a head one night, when after a few beers I logged on, and decided I was going to send a message that this would not be acceptable.

Due to drunkenness, what was supposed to insult and belittle one person, insulted every single person there.

The message reads as follows (apologies for spelling, this is a C&P job) –

“Ladies and Gentleman, we’ve managed to build up 516 members!

However, certain members are bringing bullying inot this group as if they are cool for doing so.

I have only this message to deliver to them – “Grow up you bunch of useless doling, council house, no hope of ever getting out of *town name*, future police target pricks!”

I don’t give a flying fuck if this offends people, it’s intended!

Up yours bullying cunts!

Agnostic

p.s. Officer posts available, message if you’re interested”


As you can see, not the best.

When I woke up the morning after, I had about 20 messages of people saying about how they were disgusted with my comments, and that I had no right to go on like that.

On a re-read, I could understand their point.

One grovelling apology later, in my inbox now full of insulting or angry responses, one caught my eye, from one lad I actually knew from my school days.

“Mate, personally, I think your message to the *school name* students group was completely justified, I don’t think it was bullying on your part.

Nice one for sticking up for them.

Cheers”


So there you have it, my biggest mistake was being on f’book while drunk, don’t drink and write kids!

Length? 83 Words


*The reason he is a ‘person’ is because I don’t view him as a human being, he is pure unadultered scum, and has since phoned me to tell me I’m a ‘gayboy’, it amuses me that in 5 years, he still hasn’t come up with a new insult for me.

know what you mean...
but it is SO great to go into the McDonalds that they end up working in and asking for 20 smiles or just taking the piss.

This also makes me go all warm inside:
