Bunch of lazy stalkers. They're just not willing to do what it takes to be a REAL stalking... like stand outside your ex's house for days on end while the rain pours down.
No Gen-Y'er would ever be willing to do that!

@Elsewhere. Why did you close your blinds last night?

Why did this read like an Onion article?
generalalcazarJul 3, 2010
This was like an opposite Onion. At first I thought it was fake, then I realized it was real.
smacksawJul 3, 2010
Then you read the end, where it said it was fake, but then you realised it was real because it was mocking a serious subject.

Thats amazing.

That would be funny if Facebook banned you from viewing a new ex's profile for a month or so. You either agree to change your "relationship status" back with that person or wait 30 days.

Internet, infect whole world is relative no body knows what would happens in the days to come...
spectralsoundsJul 3, 2010
Was this supposed to be funny? If this is a satire site, it has a long way to go to catch up to the Onion.

I wonder what kind of retirement plan a stalker has....

His benefits are getting cut to shreds in this economy. Sad times.
How many nights did he call someone, breath heavily, and hang up? And now it was all for nothing. It's shameful.

3 meals a day, room and board, anal sex at anytime.
sabretouJul 3, 2010
Get out of here, stalker.

Hey... Marked One!

Get off my lawn, stalker!

so is CIO the new Onion?

It's not stalking if you are utilizing public information.
zenmojoJul 3, 2010
It's completely legal to dig through someone's garbage can...it becomes public property....

Only in America...
crgnetworksJul 3, 2010
is this real life?
mark5hsJul 3, 2010
I completely agree with the guy
zenmojoJul 3, 2010
I've had people literally come up to me and ask what I do all day because I don't post on facebook except once every few days, and then usually a poem by Robert Frost or something completely esoteric and useless.
When I friended someone to my PS3 account, he came up to me one day and said, "How long were you on your playstation?" The next day I had to delete him because that s**t was just creepy.
Since when did it become simply accepted by my generation that everyone knows all of your goddamn business?Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.

A 30-year veteran of stalking...
...
Why would you even admit that!!?
dustbowlJul 3, 2010
LMAO They had to resort to writing a fictional story just to put the fear into everyone to make people realize putting so much personal information online isn't a good thing.
smacksawJul 3, 2010
The way I see it, you're damned if you do, damned if you don't. Another problem is identity theft, or people using your name/reputation to socially engineer things.
For me, it came down to this: do I jealously protect my privacy, or do I control what I put out there? I decided to make a presence for myself. If anyone wants to find me, they can figure it out themselves with publicly available information or hire a PI, and pay for $100 for a skip trace.
I don't think money is going to deter someone who wanted me that badly. So I might as well put myself out here and establish a baseline of who I am.
