FB fun

[showdogz]

From a cousin of mine:

Jacked this idea from a friend, but really hoping it works! Asking all my fb friends to mail me $2.00, can be more if you like! I am hoping a good amount of you will do this for my birthday to make it a little easier for me to pay for my balloon ride!! All the family and friends that I never get a chance to see...this really means A LOT to me..so if you care and have the time and heart, please help this adventure come true for me. I am so looking forward to this. My address is not listed on fb, so you must call me or message me on here for the address. How many ppl message me will give me an idea on how many ppl are willing to do this for me. Thank you in advance and thanks.

And from a few days ago:

My lil mama is turning 9 and not ONE family member coming to the party? Come on, people what does it take to get you to come over?! Its quite sad how our family is diminishing and the only time we all see eachother is at a funeral..SMH

This is quite bold to say seeing as I saw her at my mom's funeral and a month before that at our uncle's. I said I wasn't going b/c really I didn't want to. I don't know them the best and have way too much other stuff to do...like go to my friend's grill out that I see every single week and have known since 2nd grade. My sister and another cousin were pissed and commented on this saying it was extreme. I ignored. The thing is, we hung out in April and it was kind of awkward. Still it came across very rude.

Major side eye at your cousin.

Dude i'm trying that! But adding a zero or two. **rubs hands together gleefully**

[raynes]

What a peach.

[fryjack2]

Mail her a deflated balloon.

[jfh]

That is gross. Do you and orriskitten have the same FB feed??

[showdogz]

She lives an hour away one way. The invite, though, was a fb post that mentioned my name, among other cousins she is friends with. Not even a straightforward time or anything.

Yeah, if you ask for money, at least now you can say you saw someone else do this!

[showdogz]

I probably would've stopped by if it wouldn't take about a whole afternoon, but if I am driving that far, I am staying for awhile...

[laurack]

I just can't stop laughing.

picturing sending some one a PM saying hey whats your address, I have $2.00 here to mail you.

oh and what about the cost of a stamp? it's $0.50 for a stamp right, I feel like that might have to come out of the $2, I'm not made of money here

[Faevantastic]

Wow, how old is this chick?

An hour is pretty far for a quick visit. 

agreed.

also a facebook post mentioning you isn't really a proper invite. I would drive an hour for the party of someone I liked /cared about/expected to have fun with.

For a second i thought she wanted the balloon ride to take her to visit her friends and family.

[spaghetticat]

Wtf?

[kemangel124]

She sounds like maybe she is a bit immature. Wondering if she is old enough to have a facebook account....OH CRAP, she has a kid? WTF? What is wrong with people?

I would say you were waiting to RSVP until you got your invitation to the party in the mail, ya know so that you knew what time and all....

If she was smart, she would just set up a paypal account. Then she wouldn't have to worry about the whole pming thing and stamp issue.
