well they dont know they've been removed unless they try and mail me, and most of these vacuous tarts just want to collect friends anyway, not stay in touch that much.

I have a cull every few months, if people don't stay in touch or update their accounts then they go, including some people from here as well.

Hehe was just thinking of this - there's a manager who's home now and keeps moaning about how sick he is with everyone in the office commenting on his status and offering advice. Virtually the whole company is on Facebook, so I don't think I have anything to worry about.
