I don't have facebook for this very reason. I do have a myspace page but I never go on it either. Someone on the radio earlier was trying to say that phone numbers were going to be replaced by facebook pages.

I used to get random facebook friend request. It was usually single, creepy guys. I decided to block almost everything from random people. Creepy guys are persistent though, so I now have my relationship status visible. Haven't had a creepy request since.

We have people at the grocery store sign up for the Lowe's Foods Rewards Card and put the name Hillary Clinton or Rocky Squirrel on it because they are affraid the government will steal their info and follow them. The funny thing is all of these people are legal Americans who have a SS#. Some are married, and they drive their car to the store. That means they are already in the system.

I have probably invited about 10 out of the 40+ people on my facebook friends list. I don't even invite my own family, or friends. I just let them find me.

People using 919.867.5309, signing up under a false name or just obtaining loyalty cards without applications aren't affraid[sic] that some Orwellian agency is going to steal their info you fucking dolt. Some people probably just feel that they shouldn't have to surrender their privacy to more or less be 'rewarded' with the MSRP. I'm really sure that my VIC'd condoms, KY, and candy bars every week are 100% all the time 'strictly for internal use'. That's why three months later I have a 5.00 coupon for Kit Kat flavored Trojans or a redplum leaflet for some random coupons that would complete the pedobear-analogy that I'm now too tired to come up with.

That said, I think I'll redeem some Sub Club points tomorrow.

I just hand them a blank application form, and they hand me a loyalty card. It's a silly game we play.
