Well, it started off pretty innocently... I'm writing a review on this play I watched for my English class, and I needed to get some background information on this one actor. So I decided to google him... and I happened to come across his public Facebook profile. One click led to another, and I ended up looking through all his pictures, seeing how GORGEOUS his girlfriend is, and finding out he added all the other cast members as friends (except he's the only one dumb enough to keep his public). I'm not a creeper.
 Do you Facebook stalk people (BE HONEST)? And if so, who or what kind of people do you stalk? |

I facebook stalk people all the time. Anyone I find interesting, I guess. There is often no rhyme or reason behind it. I don't know. Facebook makes me really f*cking creepy sometimes. I have no real problem admitting that I facebook stalk in general, though actually telling people that I facebook stalk them is not something I would do because that shit's weird.

I seriously have a problem. Did I tell you about how I fb stalked this guy's girlfriend? He's in my Psych class and I really like him, he's a cool guy and really easy to talk to. So I check out his fb, which leads me to his gf's fb, and she is honestly, the coolest girl ever. First of all, she's gorgeous and SO ADORABLE. She has fantastic taste in music and fashion. She's smiling in all of her photos and just looks like such a gosh darn fun person to hang with. I totally have a best friend crush on her. I would give anything to be her new best friend.
Yes that's creepy. Other than her though, I fb stalk people often. It's just fun to check up on their lives and stuff, I guess. |

No, because everyone's profile is private!!
That irritates me. If only people had the common sense to not give their home address to the first creepy person they come across on the internet, then I would be free to stalk whomever I please :) |

^ You have no idea how much it pisses me off when people have private profiles. And no profile picture. Or less than 10 pictures.

I don't have a fb, but back when I actually checked my myspace (and before they had the private option) I would find myself clicking on a friends page, seeing someone who left them a ton of comments and clicking on their profile, and then finding someone else...

 I don't know, I think this is the creepiest thing I've ever been on Facebook. I do occasionally go through people's pictures and such, but here's how I justify it: You're posting your pictures on the freaking internet for people to look at, and you can easily adjust your privacy settings so that people can't see those pictures of you. You have no right to get freaked out or whatever when someone you added as a friend sees them. And plus, once your upload your pictures onto the site, FB owns them, so the pictures don't only belong to you anymore. Mind you, I still like calling people creepers. |

I don't usually find myself stalking people I don't know. But occasionally when I'm really bored I'll go around reading everyone's Wall-to-Walls.

I end up stalking people I don't know from stalking people I do know.

^ Most of my friends on FB are high school friends too, and I know them all also. I don't FB stalk people to get to know them. I just look through pictures and such.

That is if they're dumb enough to keep their profile public.
That's why my profile is private and all my pictures/videos are "only friends". I'm paranoid of stalkers since I stalk myself...lol. |

You can still click Wall-to-Wall and get a whole separate page.
