Facebook: Exposing the Crazy

Do you have one of those serial frienders on your Facebook? You know the one, they friend anyone and everyone. They have hundreds, if not thousands of friends. Sometimes they even set up a second profile to try to manage the mess.

These are the same people who most often bitch that so many people on Facebook are fake. They complain that the people on their list are not real friends and they don't really care.

These serial frienders are also serial deleters. They go on rampages where they delete huge masses from their friends list. They post those veiled cut-and-paste threats that say they will be watching to see who responds to their post.

Facebook is such a huge venue for watching the crazy unleash. I love it. But I often wonder, what did these people do before Facebook? Did they exist before Facebook, or does Facebook someone breed crazy? If they existed before, how did they go about serial friending and unfriending? Or did they just have to be content with being crazy on a much smaller scale? Shouldn't science be studying this?
