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?

I change my sig
generally to something that has amused me, in the hope that it will amuse others, or to a particularly fine bit of lyrics from whatever song I happen to be listening to.

the lyrics are usually odd, and from a song that I think is great, so I hope that it will either make people go wtf? or look it up to see where it comes from, and then have a listen.

That is exactly what he just said.
That is exactly what they do on Facebook.

I'm not updating to what I'm doing or thinking though
I'm trying to improve people's lives with good music

there's a difference, albeit a subtle one

Ah
If I'd known that, maybe my life would have been improved with good music.

I'm cursed with insatiable curiosity
so if I see something interesting or odd I look it up

I forget that not all people are like this

Hey!
*furrows brow and looks confrontational*

I can do curious too! I just didn't know it was music I was supposed to be being curious about.

*unconfronts*

Now you've explained it, I will know what to look up. So thankyou :)

yay for fellow music nerds :)
I do that, too. My current one's a Mogwai song.

yup
moi aussi

music seems to be subtly influential when status updating. Or maybe it just sounds obscure and cool when the reality is . . . not
