That be what i'm doing. I hardly update my status anyway, and if I was pulling a sicky (which I wasn't...), I'd hardly be stupid enough to update facebook with "Wooohoo sicky yea screw you work, you're fools for believing me that i'm sick" yadda yadda.

Friend him then post "woohoo! throwing a sickie today, I'm at the beach!" and variations from your desk, at work, every day.

maybe your boss reads NZGames, and isnt impressed with you discussing their friend request here.

I'm friends with a bunch of people that work for me - but I've never sent a single friend request to any of them. Every single one of them has added me as a friend first. So, if they slip up and brag pulling a sicky and I see it, they've only got themselves to blame...

My boss was my friend before he was my boss, he knows more about me than I post on fb, and I don't spin him yarns, so having him as a friend on facebook works fine. This isn't the first time this has been the case either. It does depend on the boss and the relationship though. I've had bosses I wouldn't add to my friends list. It would feel weird and inappropriate.

In the early '90s I made sure I invited my boss along with the vendors to the strip club, that way I had dirt on both of them.

I'd friend your boss from the early 90s. He's a dude. Saw him again a couple of years ago. He hadn't changed at all. He married my old neighbour.

In general I am not entirely sure why people friend their colleagues or people that they see daily on FB anyway. Just get the goss off them directly if you desire.

Really hard to blackmail a guy that is standing there with two thumbs going "Yep I did it".

Hmm - if he predrilled the holes in the cross, and then hammered the nails through his hands, and slid them into the holes, would that get around the old problem of not being able to get the last nail in?

WTF did he need a set of plans???

Is it just me or is http://forums.steampowered.com/ throwing a db error? It's been like this all day for me. Seems odd. You'd think they'd have some redundancy, given the nature of their business.

I reckon some Scottish blood must have infiltrated your family genes at some point to produce the pale skin/red beard :P

I just saw an ad on TV3 showing clips from TV1 news and comparing it to TV3 news. The TV1 news was selectively picking "humour" segments and putting it against serious TV3 news segments. Seems like a bit of a cunty thing to do ;/
