Facebook is DANGEROUS!!!
Woman Burns Friends House Down After She Deleted Her Off Facebook
Authorities in Iowa say a 30-year-old woman attempted to burn down a couple’s house last week in retaliation for being unfriended in Facebook. Jennifer Christine Harris, of Des Moines, is being held in Polk County Prison on $100,000 bond after she allegedly set fire to Jim and Nikki Rasmussen‘s garage, forcing the couple to flee their home in the middle of the night, the Des Moines Register reports. The siding on the house melted and the garage roof collapsed, according to reports. The Rasmussens only managed to escape the blaze after a loud booming sound woke them up. “It was ablaze at 1 a.m. It was just totally engulfed,” neighbor Dominic Formaro told ABC News. Police say that investigations show Harris’ motive was connected to an argument she and Nikki had over Facebook. “The two are no longer friends due to a dispute over Facebook,” Jim Rasmussen told officials with the Des Moines Police Department. “According to Nikki, Jen is angry with her because she ended their friendship on Facebook.” According to Detective Jack Kamerick, the dispute had much to do with a Facebook event the former-best friends were planning. “Jen asked Nikki to create an event on Facebook for a party. Nikki did that,” Kamerick told the Register. “As the date for the party approached there were a lot of ‘declines,’ on Facebook. It was looking like the party might be a bust. The dispute apparently blossomed.” The tension between Harris and Nikki apparently became so great that when police asked the Rasmussens who might have wished to harm them, the couple immediately pointed the finger at their former friend. Police charged Jennifer Harris with first degree arson Oh my gosh! I unfriended my best friend on FB after our huge fight last month..I better tell her to be friends again on FB so I wont get my house burned down!

I don't take FB too seriously. If I get unfriended, oh well. It doesn't really change my life AT ALL! Just one less status update in the newsfeed. That's all.

The thing about common sense is that it is actually very uncommon!

The whole unfriending stuff just cracks me up. I mean these are adults right? The whole "you're not my friend anymore" seems kind of playground to me.
Of course this woman did seem a tad "off balance"

I'm glad that I never joined FB. I just hate to see two buttons, "deny/ignore" or "unfriend". I don't want to feel guilty about it.

That's why I keep my "friends" list to a very low number. Nearly all are family, long-time personal friends, and just a very few people that I've met first on-line, and then in person. I'd just rather wait until I've met in person or will do so very shortly before I put them on my list, with very few exceptions.
My nephews and a couple nieces have an ungodly amount of "friends," numbering well into the five or six hundreds, on their lists. I think part of that is from playing online games. I can't imagine seriously wanting to keep up with that many people. |

I don't have a best friend so a defriending on FB isn't likely to send me over the edge. I have survived defriendings before, and I am sure I will continue to survive.
*singing* I will SURVIVE!
