Confession

I have a little confession to make.

I have a second Facebook account that I use purely for playing around/wasting time on lame, cheesy, juvenile applications I would be WAY too embarrassed to have show up on my regular account.

It’s also handy for internet stalking.

I’m kidding about that last thing.

Sorta.

    I want a separate Facebook account for all my co-workers that keep friending me. We actually have “official job-related” crap on there, but I kind of want the freedom to say “Jill has an itchy butt.” or something lame like that and not share it with my co-workers.

    “JILL HAS AN ITCHY BUTT?!!!!”

    Dude. I love you so much right now.

    I for one, thank you. I stopped doing Puzzlebee when I realized my completed puzzles were being announced. Now I don’t do it because my time wasting computer activities are on the laptop, and you can’t get a good completion time result with the touchpad. I have way too many tabs open on my browser(s)to have a second Facebook account.

    A second FaceBook account-pure genius Loralee-Genius!

    Gah!! I can barely deal with what I have – much less another one.

    See I’m totally hooked on that Greenspace and Flair crap on there! Such a big time-waster!

    I do this as well. Heck, everyone I KNOW does this! It’s fantastic for stalking!

    avatar Invader Trent says:

    I have a secret too. Loralee will not answer my calls or my facebook messages. I just wanna get my books back from Karen and I don’t know how to get in touch with her. I don’t want to have to come over and pull your head out of the toilet to get the info i need. See that’s funny because normally you would put someones head in the toilet to get info.

    Sweet. :P
    I have some silly stuff too…
    It is possible to change settings so that they don’t update your page or anything… :P

    I think it’s always good to be able to fly under the radar. Wouldn’t this be great if we had this option for every aspect of our lives?

    avatar Heidi says:

    Well I don’t have a second facebook account but I will admit that I have a few people (namely my ex and his family/close friends) on limited profile so they can’t read my status updates. There are some things in this world that are better kept to ourselves. :) I am still enough of a stalker that I like having them as friends to keep tabs.

    avatar Heidi says:

    Hey Loralee…is your real self friends with your alter ego?

    avatar Cameron says:

    I need that too….too many co-workers are wanting to befriend me and I’m like, “Nah.” I need stealth Facebook.

    Do you have a Facebook farm? Because I have an irrational desire for a facebook farm.

    avatar loralee says:

    I TOTALLY have a Facebook farm. heh.

    avatar Suzanne says:

    Girl, you continue to crack me up. It makes me happy that you are so in touch with your inner child that you let it have a persona on Facebook to play.

  23. 23
    avatar loralee says:

    Oh, and yeah…My alter ego is a girl and I don’t have any friends with this account. I mainly just farm and take stupid quizzes. (If I were a band in the 80′s I would be Journey. Just so you know.)

    avatar bejewell says:

    My own confession: I have never played a game or used an application (other than the blog thing) on Facebook.

    Also, I have no idea what a Lil Green Patch is.

    Don’t hate me.

    avatar Bethany says:

    Yeah… flying under the FB radar… I have a friend who does that, she set up an account for a stuffed bear. He is a naughty thing!

    avatar Vic says:

    It’s more common than you think.
    However, if my friends can’t deal with my weird facebook gaming addictions, then really they probably don’t want to be my friends at all… she says.

    avatar Alice says:

    So, HOW do you stalk with a friendless facebook account? That was how I started out, but you can’t see anything other than the little pictures, and who people are friends with. Since my stalking was begun on MySpace, where you could see TONS of stuff, I find that to be a little disappointing.

    Stalking tips at Loralee’s! Please?

    avatar charli says:

    Why didn’t I think of this?! I’m going to see about changing some settings or getting a new account- my mother-in-law discovered Facebook and now I am paranoid to be on there! She ruins EVERYTHING! Seriously. Like a round little happiness vacuum. She sucks out all the fun.

    avatar just me says:

    I’ll confess I have another facebook account for the same reason. Plus I can cheat some of the games by having another “friend”.

    DUDE! I LOVE Journey!
    As far as FB is concerned, I just have my privacy settings… set. LOL. Also, there’s a way that you can set up groups (like for co-workers, then one for friends, one for family, etc.) and set different privacy settings for each group.
    But – I really think that you should prompted to do that with every application you add. I didn’t realize it, but for the first few days that I was using the Compare People app it was notifying everyone that I would rather sleep with this guy over this girl, etc…. (Even though I’m married and was just answering for fun.)
    ….I know this got long, and I’m sorry… I’m not on crack, I promise. :)

    avatar loralee says:

    I think it’s a pretty good indicator of how your life is going when your readers start asking you how to stalk people. Heh, heh, heh. (Made me LMAO, btw).

    All it means is that my network is set to view profiles in Salt Lake (versus mine in Logan) because there are plenty of people I don’t necessarily want to add as friends but like to see their profiles from time to time. (If I was really that concerned I certainly wouldn’t have outed myself. Although, I might actually. I can’t keep a secret about myself worth a damn.
    P.S.
    I LOVE JOURNEY WITH THE POWER OF A THOUSAND BURNING SUNS.

    Here’s my confession… I felt like a freaking clelebrity when I saw that you commented on my blog! I’m sure you noticed that I have you listed as “cousin Loralee” because I want everyone to know we’re related! I love yer guts and yer blog!

    avatar loralee says:

    Dude, coz! You are a SPEECH PATHOLOGIST! My dream job that I couldn’t hack school for, I might add.

    I barf and write about my ta-tas on the internet in my underwear.

    You TOTALLY win.

    :)

    We both know that I would and have gotten caught when I created an alter ego. Good times.

    I once created an alter ego when I was in grade school and tried to convince people that I had a twin. ….I actually had a couple people convinced for a week or so. It was kind of funny.
