Facebook Friend Faction Management

The phrase to describe a situation where you have a large number of facebook 'friends,' some of whom know things about you that they could post that you do not want other friends to know about.

This is a situation best managed by having the correct privacy settings, deleting some of your friends off Facebook and not initiating any posts yourself, thereby preventing a situation where a friend reveals a fact about you that you do not wish someone else knowing about.

Oh sh*t! The surprise party for Fiona will be no surprise if i dont delete that post I made with the comment from Dave about bringing the drinks on Thursday! Time for some Facebook Friend Faction Management!

facation

A trip to visit relatives extending beyond one day. Literally "fake vacation." Not to be confused with the term "vacation" which may include relaxation and/or solitude.

During our facation to Seattle, we stayed with my sister-in-law. The kids loved playing with their cousins. Phew, I'm ready to get back to work for some recovery.
