Earlier this summer, I was a student correspondent for a webisode of mtvU’s new show Sex Cred, hosted by Dr. Ruth. I was happily surprised to see the following on Facebook today:

If you’re on Facebook (and I know most of you are) and have an interest in sex (and I know most of you do), then add this woman pronto. The show debuts on mtvU on September 3rd.

Looks like JB (the gay best friend) broke someone’s heart harder than he thought last spring. Today he received in his Facebook inbox the following:

You have a friend detail request.

A**** O******* (Pratt)

A**** O******* listed these details:

You dated for a short while but now you aren’t speaking.

Can you confirm these details are true?

If that’s not weird enough, the above guy also sent me a friend request in late summer. Keep in mind that I had met him a grand total of … once. For five minutes.

Can we say bitter, much?

Jason Statham (Los Angeles, CA) poked Elle C (Harvard). 4:30pm
Elle C (Harvard) totally liked it and reciprocated. 4:35pm
Elle C (Harvard) and NS (Harvard) ended their relationship. 4:46pm
Elle C (Harvard) and Jason Statham (Los Angeles, CA) had mad sex. 4:56pm

A girl can dream. Well, actually. I have dreamt about the preceding scenario. But that’s not the point.
The new Facebook freaks me out. Amid rampant privacy concerns, Zuckerberg decided to make it even easier than ever to keep track of people? He might as well send out email alerts every time someone farts.

I don’t understand how anyone but the most voyeuristic of individuals could appreciate the new Facebook. As if this website hasn’t already destroyed social interaction as we know it. Do I really want to find out via a news feed that one of my girlfriends is an emotional mess because her relationship just ended? What do I care about the post SS made to CK’s wall? Is JX’s decision to join the Chicago network really a noteworthy event? And most importantly, how can I get away with stalking the rugby team if Big Brother’s watching?

If Facebook keeps this up, it won’t be long until you see something like this:
Elle C (Harvard) is no longer interested in men. 8:12am
