SG: Fun with Facebook!

By Karl-Thomas Musselman

No, this has nothing to do with me and facebook, but rather, funny things I have found on Facebook related to SG.

As far as group membership goes at this point...

Connect: 425
Ignite: 385
Don't Pollute the Innocent Facebook With Sg Crap: 9

That last group had a very clever picture which I've posted here.

In addition, I found it slightly amusing that one of the few Connect "groupies" was none other than Jessica Rice, Ignite's Presidential Candidate. (being a group's groupie means you have x number of friends in that group but you aren't in it yourself). So all the connect supporters that log in to view their group page, see this most every time. (pop-up)

And not to forget the SEC President Race!!!

Voting Justin Burniske For Sec President: 1 (himself)
I'm voting for John Grube for SEC President: 89
Vote for Joy!: 10 (with Justin Burniske as a groupie)
JV Offers You His Protection: 24

I don't know how much this says about the SEC race momentum wise, but I would say that it seems like Mr. Grube is in a good position. Joy seems to be very popular in the gay community for some reason (must be our natural attraction to black women?) and Justin is winning in the "I have the most overexposed pictures of myself on my posters" category. (Does anyone else find those slighty disturbing besides me?)

"Don't Pollute the Innocent Facebook With Sg Crap: 9"

Sign me up! :-D (you know we appreciate you, K-T).

Actually, it's depressing. The University of Houston still isn't part of the Facebook site.

I want to join that one, too!

As for Joy.... well I think it's partly our "natural attraction to black women", but also I met her via some gay friends like 2 years ago... she came to one of my parties that I had sophmore year - I didn't keep in touch with her, but obviously she has a good number of gay friends and all.

I like to think all of our candidates appeal to all parts of campus because SECers are naturally likable. Perhaps I'm biased though

Vote Justin: Has quadrupled into 4 (with me)

Vote for Joy: 11

I'm Vote John Grube..." Has quickly jumped up to 97

and:

JV Offers You His Protection: 110

So either JV is zooming ahead or JV's people read your post... who knows. It is fun to watch though.

I also joined 'Don't pollute..." though that make's me hypocritical because I'll join any group that invites me, including SG.

Still only two members in the Fareed Zakeria fan club. Maybe you can advertise that.
