This morning I was searching my blog to see one of the tops I'd designed while I was in school—I'm thinking of using it for the top part of a dress I want to make for myself. And then I just started browsing old blog posts because... Why not? It's a lazy Sunday morning.
I came across this post and thought it might be nice to put it on Bruce's timeline, since I still like him, and it's Father's Day, and all.
So I copied the link (which you can follow by clicking the blue, underlined words in the previous paragraph), pasted it on Bruce's timeline, clicked "post", and then moved on to the next thing.
When I checked back a few minutes later, I saw this:
![]() |
In case you can't read it, it says, "An error occurred while processing this request. Try again later." |
So I tried again. And again, and again.
It also says, "If you think this doesn't go against our Community Standards let us know."
(And yes, "Community Standards" is capitalized—so I will know how important this is, and also know that I should never violate said standards.)
Uh-huh. I've been caught by facebook's Thought Police. Because I like my husband. Perhaps it is the offensive word "husband" that ratted me out.
So I clicked on "let us know" and let them know why I wasn't going against any rational standards (since they never actually told me what their apparently irrational standards are). I told them that I was trying to post a link to my own blog, on my own husband's timeline, telling him (my husband) that I liked him. I may or may not have also called the Thought Police morons. As part of the reporting process, I was also informed that they may not actually read what I wrote to them. They are awesome!
Well, anyway, I really do like my husband. A lot. And if you want to know ten reasons that I liked him eight or so years ago, click on this link (the same one I posted above).
