Inspired by this [thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=577634)… Why don’t we fill up our facebook friend lists with fellow Dopers, instead of these twits? Here’s my [profile](http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/profile.php?id=100000021784430&ref=ts), go ahead and friend me if you want. I might occasionally be guilty of posting a picture or two of my kids, but I never talk about their poop, and mostly avoid posting about religion and politics, and other TMIs. ---

I’m attempting to be social and not live up to my alias, so you can find me there. I try to only update once a day, but do tend to go on about being pregnant a lot 😉 [mod note: poster originally gave link to site with her real name; reconsidered and asked that it be removed. I obliged.] ---

But… Then I’ll be outed as someone who steals ideas from the Dope to post about!!! [It’s me!](http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/profile.php?id=668286050) ---

The problem is that with my Facebook profile you’ll know my real-life identity. Although over the years I’ve given enough clues that someone really diligent could probably work me out, I’m not ready to give a direct link like that. ---

I don’t talk about much of anything, but certainly not TMI, religion, or politics. About the only possibly annoying thing I do is post lots of pictures of myself. I’m hardly ever on any more, but if you catch me I’m usually willing to chat. Fair warning, my current pic is a drawing of a spider wearing a cowboy hat. I think it’s cute, even though spiders freak me out, but… [Here’s me.](http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/profile.php?id=1614901643) ---

[http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/marshakwilliams](http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/marshakwilliams) Sure! Why not? Be warned, however, that I spend most of my time liking and sharing liberal political posts. I’m trusting anyone who friends me from here not to crap all over my views. If you do want to be my friend, please include a short message saying that you’re a Doper so I know where you’re coming from. Once in a while I get a request out of nowhere and I ignore it. If you can’t give me the slightest clue why we should be friends, we ain’t gonna be. ---
