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?

Oh yes, this one from a couple of weeks ago!
And yes, it's another one about FaceSpunk. And yes, it's another one about having added a parent to it.
First of all, DAMN YOU STATUS UPDATES!!! DAMN YOU TO HULL!!!
OK, a couple of weeks ago, me and the lass went out for some boozing for a good gaggle of mates. As you do, while drinking, you tend to need to go for a piss. So... of to the bogs I pop.
Literally seconds before I manage to close the door, the lass comes barging in to the bog with and locks the door. Now this is what your thinking now is exactly what all our mates thought at the same time.
What really happened at the time was the lass needed the bog too, but could wait for the other loo cubical to become available (both of the toilets in question are small rooms, rather than segregated mens and womens toilets). So we just did our doings and both returned to our friends to many peoples jaws lying on the ground.
Personally, I didn't twig at first, but it became apparent that everyone thought we'd been for a quickie in the loo's. After about half an hour, people shut up about, but still didn't believe us.
Fast forwarding to the following day, both me and the lass received many a message on FaceSpunk along the lines of "What were you two up to last night in the bog?".
Without thinking a head, I posted in the status update rather than replying to many individual messages.
The exact update was: "Shaun obviously can't go for a piss without people thinking he's shagging in the bogs! Honestly, people have such a low opinion of me!!! Bastards!"
This proved to be the beginning of many jokes and questions from my father (whom I forgot was also on FaceSpunk). Even two weeks on, I'm still getting the brunt of his jokes... mainly when I go to the toilet :-(
I think I may be developing a complex now...
Length? About 2 days since I last pissed...

I have a similar problem,
except it's true.
And it's not with anyone else.
