FB wtf

[fezzik]

One of my FB friends posted her Christmas wishlist with links to each item for anyone who wants to buy her a gift.  Lol, wtf?

She's 36 years old, married and has a couple kids, so not a teenager or anything.

Are you sure it wasn't an auto login/connect to FB via a third party? It might not been her intention to directly solicit gifts.

[fezzik]

Oh no, I'm pretty sure it was intentional. It was typed out on FB and included a line saying, "If you are at a loss for gifts for me, I hope this helps."

I don't know, I thought it was odd.

[Ohhmm(bligo)]

I solicited my FB friends for a $6 pineapple corer, just in case. But that was mostly to make fun of myself for making square pineapple slices.

[lime]

Oh, it was intentional. Geez  ^o)

I have a pineapple corer. I fucking love that thing. I highly recommend it - it slices the delicious part of the pineapple into rings and leaves the tough inner portion fully intact, standing up in the center of the pineapple. 

I refer to the core as the pineapple penis.

It's ok, I can't cut round pineapple slices either, haha.

Seriously? lol. Yeah, I think it's weird and socially awkward. I don't get what would possess someone to do this.

Well this is special

Lol I had to check this wasn't my sister. But she's 39 (40 in 2 months), single, no kids. Whew.

But she does this shit. (She did add a discount code to her link so we could at least get a discount on the books on her wish list that all of fb was rushing to buy for her)

[tdk2]

Waaaait.

Ok.

Maybe just maybe-
Amazon just ran some kind of $5 off $35 if you linked a fb to wish list or something. I didn't do the promo but I think I read ppl posting dummy wish lists so they didn't have to share a real one.

Maybe. Not sure if that was how to get $5 off.

My sister's posts are NOT linked to a promo. she's just crazy.

I shared mine for the promo, but put it back to me only after it posted.
