The Most Disorganized Post Ever

Ok, first of all, here's a funny video about friends reminiscing I made tonight. It kind of reminds me of that time I was on LSD and tried to film a movie. Also, I did a really crappy job editing it because I was feeling lazy tonight. And during one scene with dialog, my camera decided not to capture any audio, so I voice overed for it. Unfortunately, it was Kaycie's voice that was not recorded. So that should be interesting. Here's the video:


Tanner, you may have noticed I forgot to put in the last part. Which sucks, because that was hilarious. But it's too late. Sorry.

Here's the weird thing that happened to me tonight (this has nothing to do with the video, by the way).

I had FaceBook in the background while editing the above movie, and was messaged by one "Loretta Shidt." Loretta Shidt falls into the category of, "friends on FaceBook that I don't know in real life, and added because they went to Lone Peak and had a ton of friends in common with me." I don't actually remember when I added her.

She started hitting on me. Normally, ok cool. New friend time. Then it became less of "playful flirting" and more of "really forward, I want to make out with you" flirting. I started checking out her profile. In it was a box that said:

"This facebook account is an ethical experiment to tell the world to be careful who you add to your friends list. And to show how easy it is for online predators to create illigitimate facebook accounts.."

I like to think that after much deliberation, the person who made this account omitted the final sentence, "And to prove that it is okay to type in fragments."

Anyway, long story short, it's a group of kids from LP whose parents undoubtedly belong to the "Social Networking is of the Devil" society in Utah. I guess if you hear it long enough, you get brainwashed into thinking it's true, and then... try to prove it? I dunno.

But here's the best excerpt from the entire conversation:

Loretta: lets get to the bottom line do you or do you not want to make out with me?

Me: On the off chance that this is even remotely real, perhaps I should direct you to http://www.lds.org.

Loretta: is this for seminary?

Me: Yes. I have an assignment to wait on FaceBook until a stranger starts hitting on me, then try to convert her.

Throughout the conversation, I was being tagged by her in various pictures of Barack Obama, Pope Benedict, and Emperor Palpatine (ok, I made up that last one). Shortly after the above exchange, I was tagged in this picture:




Seriously

Well it didn't take much time before I was informed by two separate people that the account was fake, which I started suspecting as soon as "she" began denying the presence of a box in "her" profile which outlined the entire purpose of the account.

I congratulate you, Loretta, on managing to trick me into adding you. But next time, perhaps you should budget more time than 1/2 hour into seducing a teenager from stranger to first base. What kind of amateur sexual predator are you, anyway? One more tip, for the road: usually there's no box that says, "The purpose of this account is to lure young children into my house so I can molest them" sitting under the profile picture of a real stalker.

  1. Andrew, I don't know why more people don't comment, because this was totally funny. So I will comment, even at the risk of appearing to be a comment nazi. That picture is pretty darn great. I also loved "let's get to the bottom line here..."

    I'm so entertained yet creeped out picturing some old Mormon dad saying those things to you...

  2. So this one time, I laughed pretty hard at that post. Congrats on mastering the art of sarcasm. I about died at "Yes. I was told to wait on facebook until some stranger... etc". Good times. Wish I would have been there.

    And as for fragments, I think THEY are of the devil. Up for creating a fake facebook profile so that we can add people from Lone Peak, and hope to stop the plague that is fragments? Okay?

  3. I'm not sure why it posted that as Anonymous. But whatever. It's Jared.
