Facebook Paranoia - Noun. - unfounded or ill-founded fear of (1) unauthorized editing of one's Facebook (FB) account characterized by unflattering profile pics or socially deplorable "interests" by hackers or prankster friends; (2) misinterpretation of FB communication due to lack of voice inflection, especially in private messaging; (3) seizure and hoarding of drunken/out-of-context photos by others for future blackmail; (4) being caught in a lie when your off-FB conversations are countered by another's cognizance of your FB information; (5) unintentionally revealing oneself as a stalker by acknowleging awareness of another's interests or recent activities only noted on FB, especially when involving a crush/casual hook-up;
Facebook paranoia situation 4 - John to friend while at gym: "Sorry I couldn't watch the game with you guys last night, I was putting nitro in the Mustang." Friend: "Dude, don't lie, I totally saw your girl's wall post to her friend that you were watching The Notebook last night with her and that you cried during the love-making scene."
Facebook paranoia situation 5 - Girl: "My friend and I were talking about going to a movie later this week, if you don't have to work maybe you can join us?" Boy: "Oh yeah, I've been wanting to see Zoolander too and I don't have to work Thursday!!" Girl: "Um....how'd you know.....?"

Apr 27 Word of the Day
A horoscope so bad that it strikes fear into the heart of the reader, rendering them unable take action or make a decision on anything or to even leave the house. This is caused by a paralyzing fear that those actions or decisions may cause the predictions to come true.
After reading "There is a lot of uncertainty around financial transactions and investments right now, and the wrong decision could result in dire consequences" in his daily Horrorscope, Edward climbed back into bed, pulled the sheets over his head and remained there for the rest of the day.
Edward only had enough gas in his car to get to the gas station but was not sure if he had enough money in his account to pay for gas. His cell phone service had been cut off because his payments were in arrears, and since the only way he could be sure he had enough money (to pay for gas) would be to call the bank, he felt it best to hide in bed and hope his horoscope for tomorrow was more positive.
