phantom facebooking

Checking email to view Facebook updates rather than signing in, because you want the gratification of seeing what's happening but don't want to admit your Facebook addiction to yourself or the world at large.

He had already visited Facebook five times that day, so he phantom facebooked instead.

-I'm just checking work emails. Oh lawl, look who wants to be my sister on Facebook...
-Seems to me like you're phantom facebooking!

Facebook Chess

The strategic game of unfriending people on Facebook. The pawns are the first to go...people who will never notice or give little resistance. After that you have to carefully plan your next step on who you will delete. Family members and crazy friends are much harder to delete and require a few steps ahead of planning.

I had a game of Facebook Chess the other night. I deleted all those people I added when I was in rehab that I will never see again, however, I plan on deleting my mother-in-law from facebook, this might take a few sacrifices.

Facebook Face'd

word used when someone is trying to look emotionally deep on facebook and someone comments with something funny, thus negating the first person's idea, and the first person being 'Face'd' via facebook.

Person 1 (As a status): What if life is really just a bus stop? We're just, looking for someone to spend the time with."

Person 2 (commenting): Not possible. I hate talking to people at a bus stop.

Person 3 (also commenting): FACEBOOK FACE'D!

Facebook Shiva

I found out my high school choir director had died when I saw my friends were sitting Facebook Shiva for him.

facebook downtime

An uncommon occurrence when facebook becomes unbearably slow or unavailable, which some comedians claim increases productivity in offices but in reality only results in frustration, impatience, and the f5 key gathering more fingerprints in a day than it normally does all month.

A time where hundreds of unused twitter and random forum accounts are reopened for a few minutes simply to complain about the facebook before the user returns to the f5 key.

A time where hundreds of people(?) worry about what will happen to their crops on farmville.

A time which, if extended to great lengths, could possibly lead to a social networking state of emergency.

There was a major facebook downtime today, we thought about using the time to do something productive at work but ended up on googling stuff and spamming twitter instead.
