More like, Crackbook.
Up until that last few months I’ve just logged onto the Faceybook (NO BACKSPACE!) to say “hi,” and see what my friends and family were up to. If you know me, like some of the Hags have recently learned, you know I’m not all that savvy on the computer. But I noticed all kinds of invites and hugs and the poking. Why do fools keep poking you? What is all this extra stuff? I normally ignored it and just read the news feed.
I recently made the mistake of accepting invites to Farmville and Cafe World. My life is ruined. Now my medulla oblongata is inundated with finding neighbors and cash crops. I haven’t been able to go to sleep without making sure I don’t plant any crops that will need to be harvested while I’m asleep. I also need to strategize that I will have enough food for the cafe and I’m ashamed to say I’ve been using a few cheats. What have I become? And, do you want to be my neighbor? Just askin.
How did this all get so complicated? And just to make your lives more complicated, did you know you can add Thundersquee to your friends? True story, so look that up and add us. Nothing wrong with a little shameless self-promotion. And I still don’t know how to, Tweet, damnit.
So, now I need to know from you all, have you become victim to the games and shennanigans of Facebook? If so, what got you? Was it, Mafia Wars, Farmville, Cafe World, or Yoville. There’s a Fishville, too, but I just don’t think I have enough hours or brain matter to take on much more. Facebook: now you never have to write or call humans, ever again. Just log on and leave your status update. It’s a good thing, maybe? I have to go now and plow some crops. Good day.

TheHobo says:I used to do the green garden thing, and then they had a fish tank, and then they had a race track (I don’t even know how they relate) and every day it was 12 to 15 people sending me fish and plants and wanting to race me until I just couldn’t take it anymore.
I deleted them all. Sorry little garden! To be fair, the half kid/half plant stuff really freaked me out anyway.

mae says:Mafia Wars was my downfall. Thanks a lot, Dr. G! I was so anti-apps forever and then one night at about 2 a.m., Dr.G and I were chatting on teh AIM and he said he was playing Mafia Wars. That was last June. My latest addiction is Cafe World, though. I’m OCD about it. When I go to my “neighbors” to get points by visiting their cafes, if everythings in disarray or if they let food spoil on the ovens, I get agitated. One guy hasn’t finished making a meal and it’s been like a week now. It’s driving me nuts…. Juje, I’ll accept your Farmville request as soon as I check FB !
*I have problems*

potato-sensei says:My farm was so deliciously anti-farm a couple months ago, but then they lured me back in with all that halloween goodness. But I’m thinking of anti-farming it again, and just leaving the flamingo.
Honestly though, I wish I could get a trailer for my farm. That’d be rad. A couple chickens, my flamingo, a trailer, and a few piles of leaves, and my farm would totes be the ghetto trailer park farm.

oilybohunk7 says:My brother called me one day and made me join his Mafia. Now I still play. I also do Farmville, YoVille (very sporadically) and Rollercoaster Kingdom. We got the smackdown at work because we got caught farming. Nazis. Now I have to plan my crops for non-work hours.
I’m friends with Thundersquee if you want to look me up, I’ll be your neighbor. :) My real name is Kimberly.

payter says:I don’t do any of those things and Facebook is still a majah time suck for me. If I start on those games it will be the end I swear. I do play the occasional game of Bejeweled, but even that I can play over and over and over again and suddenly my kids are asking for dinner.
I hate it when they are all demanding.

chellelee79 says:I’ve got the addiction to Happy Aquarium, Cafe World, Mafia Wars, and FarmVille. In fact, I’m playing FarmVille while typing this. The Cafe World has been kicking my butt lately because I seem to keep having to work. The joys of being on call 24-7. I could always use neighbors!

Jujubees says:Ohhhh, I’m so happy to know I’m not the only one who’s found themselves sucked into the vortex of Facebook. I’m just stuck on the Cafe World and Farmville. It is teh time suck. But then I sat down and talked with myself. Me, myself, and I decided that I was not going to cure anything or invent anything so it was all cool. And feel free to add me as a neighbor in Cafe World of Farmville. I’m Christina Petty and you’ll know it’s me by picture of RPatz making eye love to his corn. WHAT, I NEED MORE LAND AND COUNTERTOPS.
