I think my mother plays that game, I have never tried it, but then again, I am not on face book.

BTW, I see you boys down in The Swan finally figured out how to use the computers to communicate with the outside world. I thought they said that was a no no in the orientation film?

Well, we needed to be able to play flash games on the social websites. We got rock fever after the first year. :(

Almost everyone on facebook seems to play it. If 30% or more of the country regularly uses facebook I could buy that estimate.

You can turn that off, or just defriend them :confused:

But do count me in on the farmville hate bandwagon.

My wife has an aunt that has multiple fake accounts just to play farmville. She even used her dead husband's name for one of the accounts. When my wife messaged her to joke about it her aunt unfriended her.

All the guys at my work play it. At break and lunch they race one another to see who gets the spare rig.

I think this game was created by a mad scientist. He's brainwashing everyone into playing it, and then he's going to take over the world!

And 10% of the US are complete idiots. Hell, I'd bet it's more like 40-50% actually but since only 1/4 of those idiots own computers...yeah, I can believe this statistic.

I'm not gonna lie, I play Treasure Isle by Zynga. It's no different than any other game.

Why should a person have to take steps to block something they didn't ask for in the first place? I only get RSS feeds for shit I specify, but for some reason it's okay for FB to spam the shit out of your profile. I can't think of another site that does this kind of shit. Over-react? I wish FB would DIAF. Worst fucking site ever. If it was any site but FB it would be considered spam and everyone would be foaming at the mouth talking about lynching the people behind it. But for some oddball reason FB gets a pass.
