Facebook Used to Predict Relationship Fails
Facebook is doing more than tracking your location and advertising your status these days, it’s being used to predict when you’re most likely to get dumped. British journalist David McCandless took a stroll through Facebook’s status updates, looking for the key phrases “breakup†and “broken up.†Like archeologists sorting through tons of mundane garbage, emo poetry and the lastest news in what Aunt Ethel had for breakfast, they scavenged 10,000 updates and came up with some hard facts on when more people suddenly find themselves single.
According to their findings, more people find themselves mateless in the weeks between Valentines Day and Spring break. Couples that clung to each other through that torturous hallmark holiday of romance and chocolate drop kick their partners as the sun comes out, mini skirts reappear and everyone gears up for those summer flings. If you survive the spring breakup, then beware the weeks leading up to Christmas. Given the choice between spending big bucks on the love of their life and hanging out with the in-laws or going solo, a great many folks chose to do the holidays without their significant other.
On the upside, the one day of the year you should consider yourself from break up news is Christmas Day. If these stats are to be believed, then if you survive the hell of the holidays you’re likely safe until Valentine’s Day rolls around again.

"the one day of the year you should consider yourself self" Because it's always important to consider yourself self!
So I take it you don't have any friends…
^^^ I think someone's just bitter because they can't get their friends-list into the triple digits
Its pretty easy to get 3 digits, 4 digits friendlist in Indonesia. People rarely turned down friend request

That's what I hate about faccebook, true friend, not a friend, doesn't matter. It is annoying with so many update notifications on every flinch of your 3689 friends!
