dave_is_slick 03/06/20 11:09:36 AM #1:	I just got a friend suggestion. And while I do know her, I didn't until last year. Some of her life was spent in a different state. We wouldn't have any friends in common. It shouldn't know we have the same job since she hates it and I doubt she'd let it know. It's honestly kinda creeping me out.

What I hate is that when I tap on notifications, I see the most recent two or three and then a bunch of people I may know and then the rest of my notifications. So I've accidentally added someone while scrolling before. --- "I like turtles" <cite>Tired-Insomniac posted [p:935312571] in How does F...
