Facebook seems to be popular with Canadians. There's nothing super-great about it, but it helps keep in touch with some old friends. (I found some people from way back before I moved, so it's pretty interesting)

Haha this topic reminded me of an old post. Just dug it up

 

This is an actual radio conversation between a United States Navy aircraft carrier (U.S.S. Abraham Lincoln) and Canadian authorities off the coast off Newfoundland in October 1995. (The radio conversation was released by the Chief of Naval Operations on 10/10/95 as authorized by the Freedom of Information Act.)

 

CANADIANS:

Please divert your course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.

 

AMERICANS:

Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the North to avoid a collision.

 

CANADIANS:

Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.

 

AMERICANS:

This is the Captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course.

 

CANADIANS:

No, I say again, you divert YOUR course.

 

AMERICANS:

This is the aircraft carrier USS Lincoln. The second largest ship in the United States Atlantic fleet. We are accompanied by three destroyers, three cruisers, and numerous support vessels. I demand that you change your course15 degrees north...

I say again...That's one-five degrees north.... or counter-measures will be undertaken to ensure the safety of this ship!

 

CANADIANS:

We are a lighthouse. Your call

facebook is very popular in the UK.

 

I used to like it but now every time i log in 50 people want me to be a zombie, 10 want me to put a "better" wall on my page, 12 seem to think i need to be a warewolf....

 

the plug ins ruin it!

Yes, but you're not forced to click the page "# new notices", which is only subtly found in one place. And if your complaint is e-mails, you can tell facebook to not message/notify you for things.
