Get my husband off Facebook

in conversations, mixing medications, no one thinks this is funny but me, Post that people who don't twitter won't get, Random Crap, stuff better left unpublished

I started writing this yesterday on twitter and then it got long so I decided to turn it into a post that I finished last night and then I logged on was all “Why aren’t there any comments?” and it was because I never hit “publish”.  I am awesome.

My husband joined Facebook and is refusing to add me as a friend because I’m “too unprofessional”.

Seriously, he added 3 friends and he’s all “I’m done. No more friends until one of them dies”. Social networking is wasted on him.

And he doesn’t even have a profile picture. He just uses that default, faceless silhouette thing. I’m married to *that* guy.

I tried to update his profile and add a picture while he was in the kitchen and he’s all “WTF ARE YOU DOING?”   I’m *helping*, asshole.

It wasn’t even a bad picture. It was a picture of him hugging a monkey and it was very flattering.

In answer to everyone who just asked:  It was flattering to Victor and to the monkey.

Victor just asked me what “Mafia Wars” is.  It’s like I’m living with a 5 year old.

But I did advise him not to join Mafia Wars because I love him.

I also told him if he didn’t “poke” his friends at least four times a day they’d automatically be deleted from his profile.

That’s the kind of shit that you have to expect when you don’t friend me.

Two hours later:

Victor:  Facebook is kind of cool.

Me:  I’m going to murder one of your three friends so there’s room for me.

Victor:  What?

Me:  Nothing.

Victor:  Did you just say you were going to murder my friends?

Me:  What?  No. Why would I murder all your friends?  Where do they live exactly?

3 hours later:

Victor : Oh my God.

Me:  What?

Victor:  Oh. my. God.

Me:  What?!

Victor:  Paul is stuck at the airport and needs some sort of Cuban paperwork to get out.

Me:  Paul?  Your friend from Facebook?

Victor:  He sent me a message for help.

Me:  Dude. That’s Mafia Wars.  Say no.

Victor:  YOU DON’T SAY NO WHEN A FRIEND ASKS FOR HELP.

Me:  Oh my God, you installed Mafia Wars, didn’t you?

Victor:  No.

Me:  *sigh*

Victor: Maybe.

Three hours later:

Victor:  Okay, I just added you as a friend.  Go accept my request.

Me:  No way.  You just want me to join your mafia clan.

Victor:  You are insane.

6 hours later:

Victor:  I’m going to get my hair cut and when I get back you’d better have accepted my friend request.

Me:  ?

Victor:  There is some serious shit going down in Cuba.

Me:  Right.  I’m blocking you now.

Victor:  A FAMILY STICKS TOGETHER.

Me:  You’re making me hurt inside.

Victor:  La Familia!

Me:  It feels all weird when you become the unstable one in our relationship.

Victor:  Dude, I’m just messing with you.  I never installed Mafia Wars. Probably.

Me:  I’m going to set fire to your computer.

Victor:  I have three computers.

Me:  I’m going to set fire to the left side of our house and drag all your computers in there.

Victor:  So, which one of us is the unstable one, again?

Me:  I just wrestled back control, motherf’cker.

Victor:  Dude.  This is just. like. Mafia Wars.

Me: Get out.

Comment of the day: My fiance uses the default facebook photo too. I became annoyed so I changed it to some photo I found in his parents’ old photo album. He was, like, 7 with his pants pulled up to his nipples. A really great photo. He finally noticed when he started getting e-mails from people commenting on his photo. ~ Brooke

  2. Absolutely hysterical. Your life is so amusing. Or you are just really imaginative and creative. BTW, thanks for the tip on “Breakin'” yesterday. Sadly, Showtime is one of the few channels I *don’t* have. 🙁 It was on Encore, I think, last month. I must have watched it at least 2 or 3 times. 🙂

  5. This is why I keep my husband away from facebook, the less he knows the better. Then again he might find out my real mafia dealings & I’d have to truly whack him. Not just for fun either, which would suck because usually I like to keep my fun time & my business separate. I also think my husband is secretly stalking me on twitter but just won’t admit it, then again maybe not & I just need to get out more.

    I hope Victor has considered friending the monkey as well. Monkeys make excellent hit men/women.

  10. You should cook him some fish and serve it wrapped up in a newspaper. Just sort of “thunk” it down on the plate in front of him and walk away whistling Rat Pack tunes.

  11. So occasionally my husband and I will exchange a series of witty/crazy/nonsensical banter and in the middle of it one of us will look at the other and say, “We’re not normal people, are we.”

    I’m so excited to find other couples like myself and my husband. *wipes tear from eye*

  14. The Hubster just joined Facebook. If he even thinks to start with those damn applications I’ll poison his dinner.

    Shit! We’ve got two kids so I can’t very well poison dinner safely, so that plan sucks saggy balls.

    Hmmm … maybe I can poison my vaj ‘cos he’s always in there snoping around.

  17. I have nothing to say except that I’ve never been able to squeeze in a comment in the top 10 comments which is why I’m babbling….and I know by the time I finish this sentence I’ll be like comment #206. That tends to happen here. I am concerned about the monkey actually, I hope Victor’s not one of those people who uses monkeys as stand-ins for human companionship, like that lady in Connecticut whose monkey/lover mauled the other lady’s face. Things are ok between you and Victor, right?

  19. I have to type my husband’s emails for him… he refuses to communicate via internet personally. He also won’t get a debit card. Sometimes I wish he’d join the last century, at least.

  20. I hate Mafia wars. My husband has a mafia. He logs in under me and plays. So people probably think I PLAY. It is a pointless waste of energy and I would really like to throw the computer out the window because of it. Except it is a Mac and it is mine, so there’s that.
    .-= jen´s last blog ..sound bites =-.

  23. Oh, I’m staying far away from Mafia Wars… far, far away. As if I need more things on Facebook to be obsessed with. That dang Pick 5 is killing me as it is!

  24. Reading this pointless, yet hilarious, post just wasted five minutes of my workday. I am that much closer to going home now. Thanks for that.

  25. That facebook… I don’t know… It’s like being at someone’s wedding reception. You go there with the best intentions. Talk to some friends and family, maybe have a drink or two. Next thing you know, you’re on the dance floor doing the “Chicken Dance” with cousin Ethel, who isn’t really your cousin but you can’t say that because you know what happened last time she got upset.

  26. Next thing he’s going be all “Accept this Corn Plant from my Farmville!” and then “here’s a chair for your YoVille house” then next thing he’s dressing in drag and fighting bitches on Sorority Life. It could happen.

    Better to let him hold a zombie baby and start collecting his life insurance.

    Just saying.

  28. I discovered my husband joined Facebook about three months after he had when one of those friend suggestion deals popped up in the sidebar and suggested that I add him. I was all “WTF? You didn’t automatically add me THREE MONTHS AGO?” and then I noticed how many friends he had and I was all, “Who is Susan in Sweden and Marcia in Sidney?!”

    He claims they’re no one special to him. He also claims it’s because of Mafia Wars. Every time I try to pull him out, they keep pulling him back in.

  30. Jenny I’m literally going to read this to my husband when he gets home to prove to him that this is an epidemic and that I’m not over exaggerating when I say that Mafia wars is destroying marriages all over the country and that not EVERY wife willingly joins her husbands Mafia. Because we have to take a stand dangit!

  31. If there ever was a RIGHT time to drop a horses head on the bed next to him, this is the time to do it! Tell him it’s just part of the game.

  33. My husband is addicted to Farmville and I think it is so stupid. The other day I asked him to help my daughter with her homework and he was all, “but I have to plant my berries” or something retarded like that.

  34. OMG YOU SO ROCK! I love the conversations u & ur hubby have….I read them and ur blog to MY hubby and he thinks its scary how much we are alike lol

  36. All of my and Maxim’s mutual friends keep nagging him to put a picture up, but he won’t for some crazy reason. It’s not even like his fb says “Maxim Superior” and we only PM, not write on one another’s walls or thumb the piss out of one another so, y’know, he’s safe….if people see us out in public and recognize me and decide to aim a bullet at my head (which he is convinced is ultimately where my online presence is headed. I! Am JFK!) then the children will still have one parent to raise them.

    I’m thinking about maybe painting that little shadow guy on a pillowcase or paper bag and making Maxim wear it during sex. “What?” I will ask incredulously when he balks, “WHAAAT? Facebook says this is what my husband looks like, and everyone knows that everything on the internet, ever, is one-hundred-per truuuuuue.”

  37. Mafia Wars? Jeez, one more thing I don’t know. Wonder if my kids know about mafia wars? I’m comforted by the thought that Victor didn’t know about it either, and he obviously has tech skills way beyond mine.

  46. omg, i hate the mafia wars thing. It updates like a million times and all I see when I’m on my “home” page on facebook is “XXX requested help with the Obtain Compromising Photos job in Mafia Wars.” WHO CARES? BAH.

    And my husband refuses to join facebook so i have the opposite problem.

  48. My husband doesn’t get Facebook either. It’s not cool to do the same thing everyone else is doing. Like the guy who watched Enterprise obsessively just because it was a Star Trek spinoff knows anything about cool!

  49. I was trying to tell my husband this story, but I was laughing so hard that he couldn’t understand what I was saying, but he was laughing anyway and then he realized that part of the reason that I was laughing so hard was that when he joined Facebook, he mistakenly joined Mafia Wars too and I made fun of him relentlessly. So then he stopped laughing and told me to shut up.

    I mean come on, you don’t have 1 decent picture of your face?
    And, I block ALL applications. I have no use or time for farms, vampires, fluffy pets or fake adult beverages.

  53. My husband just uses Facebook to post photos of DJing narwhals for his own amusement. Here are two that have recently caused him to almost die of laughing-related death:

  57. Within two days of my husband joining Facebook, he had three times as many friends as I did. And when I post sweet-nothings to his wall, he never comments back. So I stalked his page a bit further and I noticed that when his “friends” (as if he even knows 337 people) post to his wall, he never comments back to them either. I brought this up to him and suggested that he may want to actually post comments back to the people that he loves and holds so dear to his heart, and he said, “Oh. I didn’t know you were supposed to do that.” I wish I could say that he makes up for it in person, but sadly, I married him for his money.

  60. Victor has 3 computers? Is he a hoarder? Does he hoard other things, like peanut butter jars and Ramen noodle spice packets?

I started calling her Squirrel Girl and before long she ditched the apple hobby. Kept the spice packets, though. Freak.

  62. i know that you get this all the time, but i think that you are the most amazing person in the world. i’ve never in my life wanted to friend someone i didn’t really know – it feels like cheating! – but um, hey, so, yeah, do you take random friend requests? or can people just become “fans of” you? i would do that too. (if you’re worried about crazy stalkering taking place, it’s ok. it totally is. but i’m harmless.)

  64. OK, this is totally off the subject. And none of my business. So of course I can’t resist.

    He also sports the no picture silhouette like a complete douche.

    Luckily he doesn’t play mafia wars. He’s too busy with world of fucking warcraft

  70. Hi,
    My name is Scott. I have just recently arrived from world far far away. This world is known to most of your kind as “mid-century America”. I am not sure that I grasp the nature of life in your world. So many facets and complexities to consider. It’s as if beings in your world live numerous, parallel lives each with their own conflicts to resolve. How confusing this must be. The one thing which has not changed from my place of origin and your world is that personal stability within the marital environment cannot be achieved.

  72. I told my husband it was completely acceptable to update his status every 10 minutes using the words “Cheetos” “naked” “pudding” “Denny Crane” and “kittens” in some form or fashion. Needless to say, he won’t talk to me while on Facebook and won’t post on my wall.

  74. Victor should write a guest blog….or his own blog that mirrors yours. It’d be interesting to see how he mentally records your conversations.

  75. Yeah, I’m already on twitter’s 140 mafia, I refuse to get on facebook’s mafia wars my family will never see me again cause I’ll lock the door on the computer room and never come out cause I don’t have time. Once I figure out how to friend people that haven’t asked me, I’ll come friend you, but for now, I’m like the idiot sibling that gets locked in the basement again and again cause they keep falling for it… In the world of facebook. I, however, am a twitter queen kind of so I may not get left back in Kindergarten. Maybe.

    So nice to see someone who writes, and thinks, like I do!
    Thank god! I was beginning to think my sense of humor was out of fashion or something….
    Keep blogging and remember, husbands are always great fodder for the entertainment of others! Oh and so are our progeny, of which I have many… maybe that is why I have a sick sense of humor??? No, never mind, there’s nothing wrong with MY sense of humor at all. I am just not understood by my family and friends… mayhaps I should get some new friends… Hey! I can get them on FaceBook!

  85. My husband is a douche who won’t even leave me a “Happy Birthday” message on my wall….he thinks wishing me happy birthday in person is enough….No douche bag it isn’t enough!! How will my friends know how much you love me if you don’t constantly post wonderful comments on my wall telling me how amazing I am?!?!?

    but yea…I’m pretty sure a Mafia Wars addiction is grounds for divorce, or at least a steamy affair…your pick

  86. somehow i’ve managed to escape the allure of mafia wars. i can’t say the same about farm town, farmville, restaurant city, pet society, yoville…

  87. Hah! You sad bunch of losers, wasting all of your time on online social media applications instead of getting a life.

  108. The timing of this post is impeccable.. Me and my husband also started playing Mafia Wars recently and when I say my husband is obsessed it is not anything but the truth. I checked our checking account and he has bought the coins to get more energy.. I didn’t dare do it since I didn’t want to get shit from him… Yeah $50 worth of extra coins.. and he got the whole family in on in the in-laws are calling to see if I can send them stuff not asking about their granddaughter just MAFIA WARS!!!!

  115. My husband threatens to change our relationship status to “It’s complicated” if he thinks I’m being unreasonable. He actually did it once and I got emails for days. People really pay attention to that shit. But the upside was, when we finally made up and he changed our status back, it was like falling in love all over again. Seeing that message on your home page — “So and so IS NOW MARRIED to so-and-so” — it’s better than make-up sex.

    Well, almost.

  136. You’re lucky, at least Victor left the house to go get his haircut. My husband sits and stares at Mafia Wars waiting for his energy to go back up…it takes 5 minutes for each point, so he sits there doing nothing for about an hour, then we have a conversation that goes like this:

    Him: Hey babe (not even looking away from the screen)
    Me: Hmm? (as I am wrestling our 11 month old to change his diaper)
    Him: Could you please get me something to drink?
    Me: Yes I can, but I won’t.
    Him: (finally looking at me as I finish diapering the demon child) Why not?
    Me: for one you are exactly four feet from the kitchen and two, I don’t want to be an enabler.
    Him: an enabler? I’m not an addict
    Me: Riiiight, because it is so normal to stare like that for an hour.
    Him: (grumbling) at least it isn’t p0rn
    Me: heh, p0rn is normal

    SO obviously I win the conversation and he gets his own damn drink. Then just to add to my point I allow the demon child to crawl over and push the blinky blue button on his computer thereby shutting it down. Demon Baby loves the reaction he gets…and so do I. LOL

  141. Is it sad that the only reason I wanted my husband to join Facebook was so his name would show up in the “married to” field? I needed a name to put there. Ryan Reynolds kept denying my requests to be my spouse so I had to resort to the real one.

  143. All my in-laws are on FB and they all play Mafia Wars. I’m considering hiding them….

  144. True story: My husband is not allowed to be friends with me on social networking sites anymore. He found my “secret” Twitter account, then he got mad cause he read my blog… Which he found through Twitter. So I blocked him from Twitter, then he got made and removed me as his friend on Facebook as “retaliation,” and said his relationship was “complicated.” Then I updated my status and he wanted to see what I had said but he couldn’t because we were no longer friends. Then he begged me to re-friend him. I did… But blocked him a few hours later. He still hasn’t noticed.

  146. True: Just now, I went into my husbands Facebook account and wrote his status: “I am married to the best woman in the world.” Then I went into my account and commented on his “Honey, that’s so sweet.” He does not know how a computer works and will sit there looking for the “any” key. (Press any key). He has asked me to delete his FB because “that’s where all spam comes from hon.” But I can’t. I’m having too much fun.

  147. HAHAH omg I love you. Not in the creepy stalkerish way, but in the holy-shit-I-can’t-believe-how-funny-you-are-please-let-me-stalk-you way.

    P.S. I promise I’m not going to stalk you.

    P.P.S Where have you been all my [blogging] life!??

  149. ok I always laugh reading your posts because you’re pretty fucking hilarious, but I am actually crying laughing right now. right on, bloggess. right on.

  150. I created a facebook account for my hubby right about when I got obsessed with it myself. Now, it’s just yet another public place where he can socialize with everyone but me. FUN. And then, today, he comments on one of my status updates to REPLY TO MY FRIEND. Not to talk to ME. Oh, no. Of course not.

    *ahem* I might have forgotten that I live with the man, and I can talk to him whenever I want. Except that I’m on facebook when he’s home.

  151. Just be happy that Victor is playing Mafia Wars and not Farkle or Bejeweled Blitz. He isn’t sending fake drinks to his “friends” either, is he? I don’t think I could be married to someone who emails fake alcohol to his “friends” to get them “drunk.” Look how many quotes I’ve used. Is anything real on Facebook? That’s why we’re all there.

    Going to play Las Vegas Slots…

  152. Can you figure out a way to get my husband to stop stalking me on twitter?….I don’t want to block him b/c that is too obvious……oh I know– I need to learn his password and change it on him…No, then but he can get a new one…ok….Fuck….how are we going to do this??

  153. i love you so fucking much. my husband is the same way. “i don’t need the internet to socialize”
    two weeks later, “oh my god! i’m totally like level 50!! i need a diamond ring, do you have one? you should send it to me. oh shit i can’t do anymore jobs! hurry. right now. go log on and send me some.”
    “i’m doing homework.”
    “but i need energy! here, what’s your facebook loggin, i’ll just send myself some.”
    “get the fuck off my computer.”

  154. p.s. Sarcastica says she loves you… but not in a creepy stalker way.
    i totally do. i love you so fucking much. you want to know who’s scratching your window? that would be me.

  155. I hate the Mafia Wars, and I really really hate that my BF can play that stupid “game” on both Facebook AND CrySpace, all day long, til the cows come home. Btw, is it even a game? I don’t even know what to call it. He also doesn’t have a real picture on his FB profile, deletes everyone’s comments on his wall (even mine), and left FB for like 3 months just b/c his MOTHER wanted to “friend” him (okay, he was kind of smart for that one).

    My conclusion? FB is the devil.

    I say burn down the house.

  158. married people shouldn’t be allowed on facebook. you’re boring. that’s why. nobody cares about your new patio, or your vacation pictures, or your uncle in the crazy hat. go away.

  159. Okay, I’m going to have to give up WoW time to read your blog because I laugh so hard I can’t answer the phone at work.

  160. my husband is a rpg junkie…i mean all hours of the night kind of junkie. He wakes up…he plays. He comes home…he plays. We have sex….he gets up directly afterwards and plays. It’s driving me mad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  161. My husband won’t sign up on Facebook. Maybe that’s a good thing. It’s bad enough that he comes straight home from work where he works on computers all day and… gets on the computer to play City of Heroes all evening.

    I play Mafia Wars. It amuses me. I had someone try to tell me I absolutely HAD to have ‘2 sets of weapons, one for offense and one for defense’. I laughed in his face. He didn’t appreciate that much. I died a few times. Whoops.

    THen you get the ones who get tired of being sucker punched and ask me to join their Marfia. Well, maybe you shouldn’t have attacked me out of the blue, then you wouldn’t get sucker punched.

  163. i hate mafia wars, it has taken over my husbands life, not only is it all he does when he’s home chatting with his buddies from it on im from the moment he walks in the door, till he passes out late at night, but it’s now progressed to text messages and phone calls all day long and all night long, it’s out of control, i’m gonna have to raise the minutes on our cell phone bill if it keeps up, and it’s like hello i’m pregnant with your child , will you get up off of your ass and help me out a little bit, but no he doesnt take suttle hints, i’m just gonna freak out one day maybe that will get his attention

  164. Ok so I just found your blog when I googled “wives whose husbands are addicted to farm town” to funny huh? Luckily, my DH has not found Mafia Wars, but I am sure that’s right around the corner. I guess the part that’s so damn hilarious to me is how he use to give my mom hell for playing farkle all the time and when I would read stories from Fanfiction.net he would complain about how long I was on the comp, and look at him now. He gets home around 6:15PM and from then until he passes out late at night he’s on Farmtown and Farkle! It drives me crazy, I’m like hello I know you work 5 days a week, sometimes more than 40 hours in a week but hello I am here don’t forget about me!!! Maybe if I had some dice to throw or some trees or berries to plant I could get some attention….

  165. C’mon Bloggess, *surely* there is a taxidermic horse head just *lying* around that *mysteriously* ends up on Victor’s pillow in the morning…

    P.S. I tried typing ‘taxidermied’ (which totally sounds right to me) but spell check told me it’s ‘taxidermic’.
    Really, spell check, REALLY?

  166. MARRIAGE RESTORED! My wife pack out of the house with my kids and said she was no longer interested in me anymore. She said all the abusive words and said am not a good husband because I wasn’t working, instead I was wasting her time, so i contacted this Strong spell caster DR OLO’R’UN a week ago after reading Miracles about his spell over the net, I consulted him for a love spell, crying not knowing what to do. He told me that he will cast a lover spell for me so my wife will come back to me. After 4 days of casting the spell, my wife call me apologizing and begging me to come home. The tender that i was waiting for was approved and he started telling me that am a good husband that I must forgive her for the bad things she had said.

  168. I was married for 1 year, i was 5 months pregnant, i loved my husband so much, and keep putting up with all his excuses, and believing that he loves me. I found out 3 months ago that he has been testing some woman he works with and it started 1 month after we got married, he says they are just friends and i called her and she says the same, i dint believe him, we fought because i have found numerous other emails, and texts on his phone from other women, so he agreed to get rid of his phone, and face book, and start counseling, he went 3 times, didn’t like what they told him. yesterday when i got home from work i hit redial to see the last number that he called, and sure enough it was hers, i became so tired of living like a stranger, worrying all the time, and i was always scared when i am not with him . one night he came back drunk, he also came with the other lady, when i i tried to confront him, he immediately started hitting me and he pushed me out the house and ask me to leave, i was so ashamed that this is happened to me and we have only been married for 7months, one day as i was making a search on the internet i came across a spell caster robinson.buckler@ y ahoo.c om who had saved many marriages so as i contacted him, he told me what is needed and in 3 days time he restored my marriage, i and my husband came back together as a married couple, i am so so so so happy, my marriage was saved…
