parents on facebook

[DeadCityScars]

it sucks.

does anyone know how to use the privacy settings to exclude certain people from seeing uploaded/tagged videos? I can't seem to figure it out.

[crimsonandclovr]

i have no idea how to do that, but i wanna know too!

i was totally bitching to my brother about a shitty night that i had because of my parents.
and guess who read it online?
my mom.
needless to say, she cried for days and i felt like scum.

[wroteurname]

you go on their profile and select limited profile or something

[wroteurname]

Edit: settings>privacy settings>profile then you can control who can see what.

[DeadCityScars]

well here's the deal....I just want to block videos I upload to my profile. I've tried videos tagged, wall posts, status and links...but nothing works :((((

[wroteurname]

You can make it so they can't see you're wall/feed at all?

Also try: not uploading embarrassing videos
not friending your parents

[DeadCityScars]

how do block the wall/feed? I'm trying to figure that out

and yeah but facebook is, unfort, rooted in real life now. meaning, thanksgiving is coming up and Imight have to answer to my aunt why I didn't add her. idk.

[wroteurname]

Ahhhhhhh I know I've done it before, may have been on a different version idk.

[SSLYBY]

I forbid my mom and dad to get them.

[Clintoto]

As soon as my father signed up I perma-deleted my account. 'Nuff said.

[sazbo]

settings>application settings>under the application video click edit settings>privacy>customize>type in whomever (whoevers?) name you don't want to see videos of you/your videos

...it's actually not that confusing.

[songydarko]

So hilarious that people have this problem. I can relate big time.

[loganmmm]

My mom has Facebook... But even worse, my grandma has Facebook.

[xmicxcorex]

Both of my parents have em, it really doesn't bother me...I just informed my parents that I am not going to take them signing up as a reason I should have to censor myself and anything they read online is something they have to deal with and I don't really care what they think of the fact that I have a mouth like a sailor.

[thehereaway]

My Mum has a facebook, i refuse to add her.

[Nick Le]

My mom has one but she doesn't use it much and doesn't care what I do to a certain extent, and I don't really need to hide anything from her. My dad ha one too and he asked me if I had one because he was against social networking sites, etc. when I was younger. I said I did and he told me to add him but I still haven't. Not sure if I want to.

[deFobbed14yrs]

HAHA for once im glad i have immigrant parents who can barely type lol. they dunno about the facebook

[Waldorf]

delete them from your friends list you doof

[mattmatumbo]

There are 2 videos of me giving a girl a lap dance at a party, my mom has a facebook account, yet these videos have not yet surfaced.

[SincerelyMe]

My mom has a facebook. We're not friends so it doesn't really bother me.

[the1]

I refuse to add my Dad. Why would I want him knowing what I get up to??

[Waldorf]

I refuse to add my Dad. Why would I want him knowing what I get up to??

besides you obviously have no time for adding straight people on facebook

[anthonydarko]

I don't add my parents for a reason.

[ohheroine]

My mother does not know anything about the internet, she has to ask me how to get to google. my dad however thinks that facebook is one of the greatest inventions and is fascinated by it. he added me and i was okay with that, but then he started adding my friends and taking those awkward quizzes online like which sexy female superhero are you. thats when i drew the line. i deleted him and told him to delete all of my friends. he deleted most of them but we are on better terms now than we used to be so i eventually added him back.

[Waldorf]

I don't add my parents for a reason.

because they don't love you

[crimsonandclovr]

My mom has Facebook... But even worse, my grandma has Facebook.

i just snorted out loud in a library.

[matt_bergeron]

my mom is on facebook. i really could care less if she sees pictures of me completely trashed.... and as far as anything els goes, who would put that on facebook anyway.

[Kozzy333]

My mom has one, she is on it all the time but she says she doesn't want to add me. She added my brother and sister though. Should I be insulted or glad?

[sleepyseanzzz]

i put every adult in my family and adults and younger family members i dont want seeing my whacky shenanigans and crazy antics under a group i labeled "adults" they can only see my profile pictures and i think information but there is no to block them from that

[Formatfun]

My Mum has a facebook, i refuse to add her.
Same situation.

[zion the lion]

it sucks.

does anyone know how to use the privacy settings to exclude certain people from seeing uploaded/tagged videos? I can't seem to figure it out.

Maybe you should upload things that you'd be ashamed to show your parents you fucking idiot. Goddamn how stupid do you have to be to not realize that?

Jesus christ, stop bitching about such tiny insignificant things. There are people who's bodies are eating away at their central nervous system and who have 10-15 years left to be able to walk. Be lucky you have parents who might be concerned about what the fuck you're wasting your time with.

[CTMarshall]

My mom doesn't know how to use the internet...or text. It's kinda sad.

[ReadyForAction]

u mad?

[zion the lion]

u mad?

No? What part of that made it seem like I could possibly be mad?

[ReadyForAction]

No? What part of that made it seem like I could possibly be mad?
idk maybe the 4 lines of pointless rant

[zion the lion]

idk maybe the 4 lines of pointless rant

Yeah those four lines were just as pointless as this thread. I bet those little boys who had to walk hundreds of miles after their families were murdered would love to see how much other people take their parents for granted.

please learn how to count by the way.

[Chromefox]

Zion, you are quite possibly the worst poster ever. And I speak to Tachyonpython, so that's really a statement.

[rollerman4221]

I refuse to friend my mom, I can just call her, I don't need to be friends with her to talk to her

nuff said

[zion the lion]

Also, my mom has a facebook, and I couldnt give two shits if I tried. My mom has a right to her socialize with her friends just as much as I do. If it's such a problem, then delete it. And if your parents feel the need to check out your page and invade your (public page) "privacy" then maybe it's because you're doing something wrong. Again dont post anything you'd be ashamed to show your parents.

[kianacarly]

My mom has a Facebook but I don't so it doesn't effect me (though I suspect she has some pretty embarrassing pictures of me on there). She also has a Twitter and Myspace, and I don't have those either. It's a spectacular way to avoid her seeing things I don't want her to, but it is a bit weird that she's on more networking sites than her teenage daughter.

[ted is lying]

This is why I dont have parents.

[Kassie09]

My mom and I are facebook friends. I really don't care. She knows I drink smoke have sex and swear. sooo, nbd. My mom is basically the shit. Nothing to hide from her.

[drawndead]

i ignored my stepdads friend request for months now. it seems to be working

[popdisaster00]

As soon as my father signed up I perma-deleted my account. 'Nuff said.
Both of my parents have facebook. I, on the other hand, do not and will not be getting one haha

[drawndead]

My mom and I are facebook friends. I really don't care. She knows I drink smoke have sex and swear. sooo, nbd. My mom is basically the shit. Nothing to hide from her.

is she willing to adopt?

[Sventhegreat]

I don't care if my parents see my facebook. I tell them all the stupid shit I do anyways. I don't have anything to hide.

[popdisaster00]

See my post above^. My dad knows more about Facebook than I do, he's on there doing polls and tagging pictures with his senior citizen friends. It's really weird. I simply just don't want a Facebook though

[Kassie09]

is she willing to adopt?

Sure..a young..orphaned..21 year old..?

[drawndead]

Sure..a young..orphaned..21 year old..?

someones gotta pay for med school!

[Kassie09]

someones gotta pay for med school!

already payin for mine, sorry bro!

[MyNameIsRoss]

my parents have facebook accounts. i don't even have facebook..

[ReadyForAction]

I counted the paragraph break as a line because it was just as warranted as the rest of that garbage post. Why don't you go about bettering the lives of those kids instead of bitching about it to kids on a forum.

[SilenceBrokenTT]

Impossible.

[zion the lion]

I am.

[ReadyForAction]

Then hop off our balls about it lol

[zion the lion]

Then hop off our balls about it lol

But it's fun being on your balls about it! If I'm on your balls long enough, you'll want to help them too.

[makeshiftmind]

my grandma, mom and dad are all on facebook

[ReadyForAction]

But it's fun being on your balls about it! If I'm on your balls long enough, you'll want to help them too.
Well at least take me out to a movie first.

[Waldorf]

fuck, zion.
why you gotta ruin every thread?

[Ravenous]

fuck, zion.
why you gotta ruin every thread?

Exactly.

[zion the lion]

Well at least take me out to a movie first.

Do you want to see God Grew Tired Of Us? Or more of a comedy because I just saw couples retreat and it was kind of cute.


fuck, zion.
why you gotta ruin every thread?

Fuck n-word eat a dick. Did I stutta mother fuckah

Why you gotta make shitty threads? Why does the world spin on it's axis at an angle? Why are radio waves the lowest on the spectrum? Why do all electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light? Why do people sexualize nipples? Why havent the facts of life played on tv in so many years. And why is it that I've ruined a thread that I've only put four posts in?

[makeshiftmind]

Do you want to see people sexualize nipples?
yes

[Fullblast]

fuck, zion.
why you gotta ruin every thread?
Waldorf, is there a need to be such a prick?

[Fullblast]

Children should be denied access to AP..... (Waldorf)

[c_rob2700]

My mom, dad, cousins, aunts, uncles, sisters, and all church folk are on complete ignore along with a few other people who just suck. I also checked the other day and have 150+ status' hidden. Ask me why


EDIT: I'll just make this shitty joke for you

Preferably a boring one so that we can hook up instead of watch it

Why

[Waldorf]

i agree, they should

you did mean for me to reply to this and give my opinion, right? i mean, my name is in parentheses

[Fullblast]

Your opinion is irrelevant, and therefore you are a child.

[Waldorf]

oh excuse me i didn't appreciate that we were still living in the victorian era

[Fullblast]

.....You don't like my Victorian Accent? :-(

[Waldorf]

.....You don't like my Victorian Accent? :-(

either this is a relatively clever pun
or really stupid

[Max_123]

my mom has one, and i don't

[miapiv89]

my mom has a facebook and i refused to add her for months but then my aunt got one and i couldn't add her and not add my mom .. so i caved.

[Fullblast]

either this is a relatively clever pun
or really stupid
Whilst it is a clever pun indeed my young Waldorf.

[Waldorf]

Whilst it is a clever pun indeed my young Waldorf.

no okay it's the stupid route

[Fullblast]

no okay it's the stupid route
The only stupid route I took was getting your mom pregnant, the result was a half-retarded child named Waldorf.

[Waldorf]

dad why are you masquerading as a 19 year old college student on a website that promotes music you've never even heard of?

[Fullblast]

Im waiting for an oh-so clever reply Waldorf :tophat:

[zion the lion]

yes

You do realize why men have nipples right? they're a unisex thing, like eyes or ears, that just happen to have a few nerve endings which make them more sensitive.

Preferably a boring one so that we can hook up instead of watch it

So then...the notebook?

[Fullblast]

dad why are you masquerading as a 19 year old college student on a website that promotes music you've never even heard of?
Son I need a career change, my welfare check hasn't came yet and your mother is a drunken no-good bitch.

[TheSkyline]

My parents and grandparents have facebooks, haha. But I don't have any of them added.

[leaving_astoria]

you can make your tagged pics private. i did it since my aunt got her facebook. she saw like 100 hundred pictures of me completely drunk or me drinking before get completely drunk. and she showed my mom all the pictures. hahaha.

[zion the lion]

why post pictures you didnt want your mother to see

[Fullblast]

It's even better when you post pictures of yourself doing ACID. lol

[Michifoxx]

Hey im on facebook now. =) But if you dont add your parents, wont they come at you bitching about why havent you added them.? I know my mom did.

[Fullblast]

Haha, I've denied my mom like 12 times and she will always phone me to bitch about it and ask me how come I won't add her.

[zion the lion]

It's even better when you post pictures of yourself doing ACID. lol

I once posted a picture of myself being boned doggy style, on my profile on a popular website that the public could access freely. I was so pissed off when my mom found it. that shit completely sucks.

[phil19]

i think if you add your folks in the first place you're asking for trouble

[Fullblast]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHA..... HA........ HA.... HA. Owned much?
But anyways, what was her reaction?

[zion the lion]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHA..... HA........ HA.... HA. Owned much?

She cried herself to death.

[Fullblast]

She cried herself to death.
I would have definately killed myself. I make sure to not have any pictures or descriminating evidence after, *ahem* sexual encounters.

[PezMullet]

All of my family, including my brother, his wife, my sister, my niece, grandma, mom, aunts, uncles, cousins are on complete block. If they type my name they won't find me in the listings, If they are friends with my friends and they have pictures tagged of me they won't be able to see it. If I post on the wall of a mutual friend they won't be able to see it. I just tell them I don't have facebook and it's all good.

[zion the lion]

I would have definately killed myself. I make sure to not have any pictures or descriminating evidence after, *ahem* sexual encounters.

Which is the more obvious thing to do.

[loudpunkguitar]

unless your private message, what you say on facebook is like putting a poster up in public. so if you don't want people to see what you talk about, i recommend having meaningful conversations in public, on the phone, even through email. at the least through the private message function on facebook.

[whiterussian]

Thank you for the doggy style post.


Go ahead and rip silly people apart. Metaphorically, of course.

[makeshiftmind]

You do realize why men have nipples right? they're a unisex thing, like eyes or ears, that just happen to have a few nerve endings which make them more sensitive.
are you hitting on me?

[ReadyForAction]

So then...the notebook?
Sure, I'll let you get to third base and everything

[zion the lion]

are you hitting on me?

yes, I like your eyes, and your nipples.

Sure, I'll let you get to third base and everything

Wait...3rd base is what?

[makeshiftmind]

yes, I like your eyes, and your nipples.
I like your big sexy brain

[zion the lion]

I like your big sexy brain

So, big brains are sexy?

[makeshiftmind]

So, big brains are sexy?
no

[zion the lion]

no

thats code for yes.

[makeshiftmind]

thats code for yes.
I like a brain yes, not brains in the testicle sense, GOSH

I read this thinking, "I bet this is zion the lion posting this."

[zion the lion]

I read this thinking, "I bet this is zion the lion posting this."

I'll admit I let my preoccupation with my medical testing get in the way, but then again, the op's problem is easily avoided by just not posting things on a public website that he doesnt want people like his parents seeing. How fucking hard is that?

[HYGz]

I read this thinking, "I bet this is zion the lion posting this."
:appl:

[MilesToGo]

My 74-year-old great aunt is on Facebook. I denied her friend request twice, but then she sent me a message that said "Lea please be my friend" and I felt bad.

[Richard Maxim]

I posted a nasty Yo' Momma joke on one of my friends pages not knowing his mom had facebook, She ended up commenting on it saying " I didn't know your friend's liked my mychal". Yea, She's in her late 40's, I wanted to die.

[anthonydarko]

There really is no good that comes out of your parents having a direct link to peer into your social life. Also, I never understood why my extended family adds me on there, considering they never talk to me.

[awakeohsleeper]

how do block the wall/feed? I'm trying to figure that out

and yeah but facebook is, unfort, rooted in real life now. meaning, thanksgiving is coming up and Imight have to answer to my aunt why I didn't add her. idk.
My sister just says to all adults who add her that she has a 'no adult policy', then flutters her eyelashes and talks about how it's important to stay safe on the internet which is why she won't add adults, whether they're family members or not. It works every time and everyone congratulates her on being so sensible.

[Clintoto]

Impossible.

Oh quite possible, they made it incredibly difficult to find the option but it's there. Hurrah!

[leaving_astoria]

why post pictures you didnt want your mother to see

i didnt post them.my friends tagged me on the pictures they posted. i never remove the tags.
