Here's what's funny...

I got a request (Facebook) by some random girl who says she lives in Waco.

Go to look at her profile and there's nothing behind it. No message, just a friend request. And her friends are in Italy and Pakistan.

GEE, I WONDER WHY YOU PICKED ME?

*deleted*

And I even heard stories about how cops are using fake profiles to bust teens on underage drinking.

Did you, by any chance, hear these stories from the first Cracked link I posted at the beginning of this thread?

Jagos · 05-23-2010, 10:50 PM

It happened two weeks ago? I may have been influenced. Curse you, Seil! You've made me a paranoid bastard with your constant linking!

Though that's not much different than I was before

According to Google, I'm dead.

Everyone Googling themselves makes me think of Wanted.

There's a lot of people with my name, hell my stupid facebook thingy my wife created for me doesn't even show up when I search my full name, province, city, college.

I feel so invisible

I found out that:
I am a former Secretary of State of Mississippi
Have my own web site dedicated to my travel photos
Can apparently play Jazz violin.
And 2 people live within 40 miles of my home that have the same exact name (First/last).

I am a ninja.

Interesting.

My real name (first, last, and middle) fail to produce anything on Google (plenty of hits, but none who are me, that is). Neither do adding my hometown, workplace, or birth date bring me up.

Only my screen name gets results.

Conclusion: RickZarber is a more interesting persona than my real name.

Well, Seil, you have officially scared me. And I sat through some of teh worst the internet has to offer without flinching.
Luckily, I have a name held by enough famous people to be hidden in the recesses of the internet...Unless I do something with my life that makes me noticable.
