The DU Lounge
Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsI have just received the most bizarre Face Book friend request, yet.
Every single photo on this guy's profile page is of Michael Flynn. His name isn't Michael Flynn - it's Dale. And he crudely 'photo-shopped' his first name over Flynn's name tag. Yea, that seems a bit casual for an authentic military name tag.
Oh, and there are no friends listed.
I am disinclined to accept.

(26,333 posts)For a while I was getting a lot of requests from people whose profile pages were written in Cyrillic. I didn't accept those, either.

(66,530 posts)It was some insane martial arts enthusiast from Indonesia. I have no idea why he friended me. But I declined his request.
The second-weirdest was from a sixteen year-old girl in Turkey. She must have seen my profile on Facebook's turkish coffee enthusiasts page. I sent her a message saying: "Are you aware that I'm a guy in my forties?" She PM-ed back: "No. Sorry!" and withdrew her request. I guess in Turkey, like everywhere else, people like to acquire random friends just to boost their count...
