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?

I have had "if you had children..." said to me.
at the time I had stopped 2 children from pushing each other into a canal while their disinterested mother sat on a bench smoking. I asked her why she hadn't stopped them.

What's even better
is when you get to dress down an adult for letting their kids act like twats in public. They get offended and say "If you had kids-" at which point I respond with "I do have kids, three of them in fact, and I never would have permitted them to behave like this- but then, I was raised with some manners."
The effect is that of hitting them across the face with a dead mackerel. The expression is priceless.

I might just say that next time.
It would make me a dirty stinking liar, but what the hell.
