Burn Book entry

Recently, Roommate J "befriended" someone on Facebook - someone whom none of us knows, yet has nearly 5,000 "friends." But through Roommate J's "friendship," we've turned this fellow into quite the topic of conversation.

Through his Facebook status updates, his Twitter postings, his Flikr stream and his several blog postings, we know far too much about his life. And when we see him out at bars, we may even yell his name out, to see him look around quizzically before returning to whatever he was doing.

And before you chastize me for being a Mean Girl panda, I'm listing a few of his postings, so the Internets can understand why we marvel at this guy's overshares. It's truly a trainwreck; take special note at the time stamps:

Finally out of bed (not my own) and heading home to charge my iPhones. (11:17am, yesterday)

Trying to help a friend who woke up in a strange house somewhere in The Castro find their way home...I'm an expert at this sort to situation (8:56am, January 24)

Well I witnessed fisting today for the first time, and experienced DP...two firsts in the past 24 hours. Time to get some sleep. G'nite (5:56am, January 23)

Alright we are watching porn on the huge projection screen. Cya all afterwards ;-) (4:54am, January 23)

4 am booty call... Where's my good lube? (3:56am, January 23)

Time for the most depressing time of the day...logging into Chemistry.com...yep no new matches...yet again. (12:56pm, January 22)

Geez....$76 in overdraft fees. Isn't it enough that my account was negative, now once I deposit money they make it negative again with fees? (1:34pm, January 21)

As I am remembering bits of last night...and looking through my text message log...apparently I made out with a few different guys at BOC (9:40am, January 21)

Note to self: "Self, just because there is an open bar, don't drink so much that you can't even make it to the bathroom to puke. kthxbai" (8:12am, January 21)

no i hate myself and wish almost daily that i never was born. (8:41pm, January 18)

it is the truth...NO ONE HAS EVER REALLY LOVED ME..how am i supposed to believe it is true, if 28 years of experience says it isn't (8:33pm, January 18)

Honestly....do you know a SINGLE person who has no spendable dollars (including credit) at all? I literally have negative money. (8:05pm, January 18)

This hottie who I've been talking to for a few weeks asked me meet him for dinner, but my bank acct is negative :-( (5:47pm, January 18)

So drunk...and it isn't even 4pm....Going onlne to "order in a trick" as a friend once put it (3:59pm, January 18)

Being here in only a towel is STRONG motivation to A) work out more and B) Save up ~$10k for a body lift, or at least a tummy tuck (9:19pm, January 17)

I think I feel sad for him, but I also believe this should serve as a cautionary tale to anyone who wishes to post every detail of his or her life online.

"A little sad"? [emphasis mine]

Wow. This poor bastard. Yikes.

But it's still hilarious that he's, like, this figure in you guys' lives -- and that, sir, is why I'll see you all in hell. heh.
