Post Three Featured Facebook Groups, Vol. II

I realize that one Featured Facebook Group is plenty, but what can I say-- 2008 has me feeling all generous and warm and stuff. Plus, these were too great to pass up. Facebook groups are for the believers, but what if their cause is pathetically comical? Well, friends, that's when we make them a featured Facebook group. Enjoy.


“I Have a Belly Button! (.)”
Perhaps the most anti-climactic group ever, the “I Have a Belly Button! (.)” folks are really on to something. Not only have they embraced the simple concept, but have sandwiched a period between two conflicting parenthesis to simulate the naval. Now there’s one emoticon I will never use. This one, for some reason, has 161 members, but only two wall posts—interesting. Could it be that students have trouble drawing up constructive discussion about the topic in question? They better step their game up before other boring rivals spring up, such as “My nose has two nostrils!” and “My hand is, in fact, connected to my arm.”


“Yes, I had Glamour Shots Done…and Yes, I Looked Like a Child Prostitute (IU Chapter)”
Now this one would have been a classic idea—had anyone participated. But instead of creating a humbled network of glamour shot victims, members have instead engaged in ruthless ridiculing of the creator, who has taken her name off the page. Join in the fun today!


“Anti Fat-Cockblocking-Friend League (AFCFL)”
Here’s to the guys who blame their inability to bring the ladies home on their obese friends. There are two scenarios I see here, and neither of them involve an actual "fat-cockblocking-friend." 1- Your game is super weak, so you get intimidated by the friend she’s brought along, who happens to be obese, or 2- That’s her really nice, sensitive boyfriend who doesn’t have the balls to tell you to go away, jackass.
