Facebook spam for grinches like me

My friends know that I'm not a big fan of exposing myself on Facebook. Yet I still have an account and log on to see what my friends are up to, mostly when I'm bored or too tired to do something else. My "security" settings are as tight as can be, I rarely share anything, post anything or "like" anything, and I do not have applications installed. As far as Facebook is concerned, I'm a grinch.

And they don't seem to like that. Recently, they have seemed desperate to make me log on. After about not even more than 1 or 2 days of not visiting the network, I would get an email trying to lure me into believing incredibly important things had happened there while I was away. Somebody must have told them that they were bugging people and actually turning them off, because they're now acknowledging they'd been a little zealous in hitting the send button.


Facebook should be happy with me for a little while now: I actually logged on and updated my status today! What's on my mind? This very blog post.
