Seriously. I’m not kidding here. I’m not telling you to not look at something in the hopes that you will look at something. That’s really not how I roll anyway. I’m more a TYPE IT IN CAPS kind of person if I WANT YOU TO LOOK AT SOMETHING like SCRIMSHAW or SUGARFOOT.
My point here is that I unwittingly clicked on a link sent from a Facebook friend who shall remain nameless, Ali Wood, and got caught up in some kind of Facebook spam virus fiasco. I don’t blame Ali. She was just as innocent in the implementing of this whole rigamarole as I was.
As my good friend Jeff Hobbs, assuming he’s still a good friend since he’s one of my friends on Facebook and received this bad, fake message from bad, fake me, said on his blog earlier, it’s another piece of Facebook spam villainy. It looks like me, or someone else you love and trust, sent you a link with the simple phrase, “Look at this!” attached to it. If you click on it, it may send you to a dirty place on the Internet or it may not and appear broken. It’s not. It’s wheedling itself into your friends like that new girl who moved in to your town in ninth grade and told everyone you like teabagging. But I digress.
I’d link to Jeff’s blog but MassLive.com isn’t loading on my computer. NOW what’s going on?
In related and more better news, you can get your Facebook page pirated in a good way:
1. First go to the bottom of your Facebook page and click “English (US)”.
2. Then click on “English Pirate”.
3. Now click “Okay”.
4. Enjoy yourself, me hearty.
