This is a question Social Networking Gaffes

Freddy Woo writes, "My school bully just friended me on Facebook!" No doubt he pokes him, and then demands his lunch money.

Personally, last month a scantily clad young woman confused me with her fiance, with whom I share a first and last name. I'm still not sure she's noticed, but she's going to be mortified when she does.

What's the biggest mistake you've made using a social networking site?

Sex
I came over to England from Australia for sex.

No, not for the British birds, but because my girlfriend at the time wanted to come here on a working holiday and I didn't want to stop having sex with her.

Anyway, after a particularly messy breakup, I was left feeling fairly depressed and without a friend whose shoulder I could cry on, so I decided to join MSN with a view to finding some suitably sensitive individual who would sympathise.

As is generally the case with these things, after unloading some of my story on the world at large and receiving a fair few comments along the lines of "grow up, you socially retarded emo-wannabe, get out, meet some people and get a life" (odd given I'm a gregarious, mature, 6'3" blonde surfer-type with a cast-iron upper lip), I finally found someone who seemed to "get" me and sympathise with my plight.

So, after much back-and-forth, I decided to give her the full sordid tale (excerpts follow):

Me: "She left me with no money, no friends and no ticket home. I even took her to my favourite place in the Indonesia on the way over here and she's even managed to poison those memories."

Her: "Jakarta?"

Me: "No, we flew."

Note: parts of the above may not be true.
Edit: location changed for the pedants.

@bearpookie
I did that one a couple of weeks ago. Still to come: the worst joke in the world, the shortest joke in the world and the longest joke in the world.

I was telling my mate about how upset I was that the love of my life was emigrating.

Mate: "Wheres she going?"

Me: "Alaska"

Mate: "What, you haven't asked already?"
