        I figured. - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:18
      - ok here's the deal. I am depressed. this shit keeps me busy. it's good. - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:08 30
        
        Ok, fair enough. (Is your doctor looking after that for you? Please take care of yourself--depression sucks.). - ralph wiggum Aug 8, 18:12 21
        
        yes, I am seeing her tomorrow. she is fine with it. it's a harmless coping mechanism. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:13 20
        
        There's *got* to be other directions you could focus this energy. -- nm - Reagen Aug 8, 18:19 15
        
        with all due respect, you don't understand. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:21 13
        
        You cope the way you need to. - the liioulu ithout a w Aug 8, 18:26 4
        
        thanks. I'm being frank. I know my current thing is weird. It's my coping mechanism. I'm in a bad place. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:29 3
        
        hugs anytime you want them. - zork Aug 8, 18:33 1
        
        no don't know. but whatever it is, I empathize. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:35
        
        If it helps, it's worth doing. -- nm - the liioulu ithout a w Aug 8, 18:32
        
        I get it more than you think. -- nm - Reagen Aug 8, 18:24 7
        
        thanks. this is just what I have to do right now. sorry I brought it up. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:25 6
        
        I know you feel like you're being sort of beaten up right now, but please take this in the spirit it's given - Reagen Aug 8, 18:31 5
        
        fwiw, I don't think that's her thing at all. - b. Aug 8, 18:46 1
        
        yes this. I am pure o. I get intrusive thoughts and there is nothing I can do. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:48
        
        and for the record... - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:37
        
        that should be tried but it can't always be solved that way -- nm - zork Aug 8, 18:35
        
        honestly I don't even feel anxiety. - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:34
        
        this -- nm - Spawn Aug 8, 18:21
        
        except.. - b. Aug 8, 18:18 3
        
        yes I am OCD. I am pure O (obsessional). it's all documented and known and evertying. - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:20 2
        
        alrighty. - b. Aug 8, 18:22 1
        
        seeing her tomorrow. she is totally aware. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:22
        
        I don't think a coping mechanism would have to be so aggressively counter-productive. - Dignan Aug 8, 18:11 6
        
        it keeps me busy. I could be jumping off the roof. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:12 5
        
        I empathise. -- nm - the liioulu ithout a w Aug 8, 18:14
        
        paint? -- nm - peglegpete Aug 8, 18:14 3
        
        I can't. I skipped two classes. went last night (forced myself to go). -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:15 2
        
        **HUG** - peglegpete Aug 8, 18:18 1
        
        ygm -- nm - peglegpete Aug 8, 18:25
        
        And probably more realistic than your opponents. -- nm - the liioulu ithout a w Aug 8, 18:10
jnine, I missed your bb post until now. awesome that you have VPN -- but isn't it principle at this point? I would so leave. - Maximiliano Scourge Aug 8, 17:49 2
- It's like, Mom and Dad are asking you to pick sides, except instead of them, it's your supermarket clerk and a stranger on the bus. -- nm - Reagen Aug 8, 17:51
- note: in addition to leah remini, I am also obsessed with the whole TWC issue. you're warned. (apparently I am obsessed with jnine too.) -- nm - Maximiliano Scourge Aug 8, 17:50
Someone should be stopping by shortly to buy our old roomba ... yay! :) -- nm - Beryllium Aug 8, 17:40
Hey guys. I have sort of a techie question about FAcebook. - loosi at home Aug 8, 17:39 59
- What about making your own page so that you have control over it? -- nm - zork Aug 8, 18:39
- Maybe it's just people attempting to log in as you and failing. If they get the password wrong X amount of times, your account/email gets flagged. - con_carne Aug 8, 18:09 3
  - could be but I think she'd be getting emails from FB saying "we're sorry you're having trouble logging in" or such.\ -- nm - zork Aug 8, 18:29
  - this is what I thought. just don't know how they are getting my email. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:10 1
    - I just found a link to your google plus and that shows it. I'm sure there are plenty of other places it could be found -- nm - zork Aug 8, 18:27
- get a new FB identity and watch the page for a few days. do not post. you want to get an idea of what is happening by seeing if others you know are - peglegpete Aug 8, 18:02 4
  - others have done that. they got booted. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:02 3
    - then, nevermind. i'm not even on FB. relax. go get a drink. it's friday night. -- nm - peglegpete Aug 8, 18:04 2
      - ... somewhere? heh. -- nm - b. Aug 8, 18:05 1
        
        *looks at watch* OOPS! -- nm - peglegpete Aug 8, 18:10
- are you sure it's a real facebook page that is saying that? I just googled and found a bunch of stuff like this - with and without cc info. nm but: -- (link) - b. Aug 8, 17:57 3
  - not that at ALL. we get logged off facebook, then there is an error page that is definitely legit. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 17:58 2
    - have you contacted facebook about it? not just e-mail, but I'd also ask publicly (fb, twitter). -- nm - b. Aug 8, 18:03 1
      - oh yes. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:04
- Actually, it probably has a lot to do with the volume of posts you are making. - Will Hunting Aug 8, 17:41 44
  - Good thing bery does not have those. -- nm - Spawn Aug 8, 17:53 1
    - Have I mentioned that you'd be the first one flagged? ;-) -- nm - Beryllium Aug 8, 18:37
  - actually not at all. guaranteed. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 17:50 13
    - Wiggie... -- nm - David Aug 8, 17:54
    - actually, with facebook, what is guaranteed? -- nm - Beryllium Aug 8, 17:52 1
      - evil -- nm - Spawn Aug 8, 17:53
    - What's more likely, they've tracked your details on the internet and continually hack your systerm...or you're being tagged as a robo-poster. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 8, 17:52 8
      - no, we have seen that error. there are a couple of people who post a LOT, and that's a different error. - loosi at home Aug 8, 17:53 7
        
        so maybe like, go outside? grab a beer with some friends? cut up some mangoes for work breakfast? take a break? -- nm - Maximiliano Scourge Aug 8, 17:58 6
        
        yes indeed. we know that error. :) the booting is totally different. it ONLY h appens to certain people and NOT the roboposters. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 17:59 5
        
        how do you know that the roboposters don't get booted? -- nm - zork Aug 8, 18:42 1
        
        because they are my friends, and they have not been booted. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:43
        
        have you talked to a FB I.T. person on the phone about this? if so, nevermind :) -- nm - peglegpete Aug 8, 18:06
        
        I was suggesting that you use the time you're banned to regroup. that's all. that's all. -- nm - Maximiliano Scourge Aug 8, 18:00 1
        
        I got that. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:00
    - this is based on experience. There is a different error that comes from volume. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 17:52
  - I would guess this and that someone has *reported* it as spamming. -- nm - Maximiliano Scourge Aug 8, 17:47 13
    - yes they report me as a spammer every day. even though I do not post links. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 17:51 12
      - Fine, replace spammer with robo-poster. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 8, 17:55 1
        
        yeah I think this is it. right there. -- nm - Remlik Aug 8, 18:08
      - so your "suspicious activity" is your (alleged) "spamming." obvs. -- nm - Maximiliano Scourge Aug 8, 17:54 6
        
        I have thought of that, but it doesn't match the times. The ONLY time people get booted is when they post convincing things. - loosi at home Aug 8, 17:56 5
        
        Just a thing....nothing on the facebook NCIS page is "convincing". It just isn't. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 8, 18:00 4
        
        heh. ok. things that upset the psychos. - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:01 3
        
        Have you posted more than three times about the contractual fate of a millionaire and her millionaire bosses? - Will Hunting Aug 8, 18:02 2
        
        sure. and some of my friends post 500 times and don't get booted. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:03 1
        
        Oh, I moved onto the psycho portion, away from the disconnected portion :) -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 8, 18:06
      - Is there a way to report them for abusing the system? -- nm - the liioulu ithout a w Aug 8, 17:53 2
        
        working on it. It is definitely not a roboposting thing. I have been booted off facebook after literally two posts. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 17:55 1
        
        Charles Sheen posted all the time -- nm - Bacon on Google Nexus 10 Aug 8, 17:57
  - This is right. Google actually does something similar (I encounter it at work a lot because of all our activity on Google using SEO quote tools). -- nm - Kim Pine Aug 8, 17:46
  - It'll all be worth it, though. In spades. nm - Dignan Aug 8, 17:43 11
    - whatever. if you did it I would support you. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 17:52 6
      - I would support you, or others, to the point that I thought things were still healthy. - b. Aug 8, 18:14
      - let me say this: I wouldn't go to bat for, say, spawn (who is MKK with me lately 100%) if he did this for a show I didn't care about. - Maximiliano Scourge Aug 8, 17:57 1
        
        I'm just trying to work out how they do it. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:02
      - I *am* supporting. In fact, it's inspired my lastest million dollar scheme: Good Idea Jeans. nm - Dignan Aug 8, 17:55 2
        
        oh my god. this is a great f*cking idea. I would buy those jeans (as long as they didn't make my ass look fat, obvs). nm - Maximiliano Scourge Aug 8, 17:59
        
        don't you have a lawn to mow? -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 17:57
    - "NCIS and CBS have announced that replacing Cote de Pablo will be ... David Spade" -- nm - Beryllium Aug 8, 17:48 3
      - MmmBop now the official intro music for NCIS -- nm - Bacon on Google Nexus 10 Aug 8, 17:54 1
        
        stop that! it makes me too happy. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 8, 18:00
      - Well, they were trying to get more feminine. Success is their's! -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 8, 17:53
  - Yup. -- nm - David Aug 8, 17:42
Rex Grossman is an insult to quarterbacking. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 8, 17:38
If Steven Jackson is going to run sideways all season, I am not going to enjoy Falcons games. -- nm - David Aug 8, 17:37 3
- And Giovani Bernard looks too small for the NFL. - David Aug 8, 17:39 2
  - I've said for months now he's CJ Spiller's rookie season and needs a few years. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 9, 04:30
  - Moreso after getting blown up in pass protection. -- nm - David Aug 8, 17:45
Today is the 25th anniversary of the first night game at Wrigley. -- nm - the liioulu ithout a w Aug 8, 17:32 3
- wow, I remember when this was such a big deal -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 8, 17:39 2
  - to some of us, it still is sacrilege. -- nm - peglegpete Aug 8, 17:43 1
    - Mother Nature thougth so. - the liioulu ithout a w Aug 8, 17:44
