Sooo…actually this is just an in-joke between the two of them and not lame in the slightest. Whoever saw it missed the point entirely and pointed it here.

The Arturo thing is a reference to the novel Ask the Dust by John Fante, about a young man named Arturo Bandini who has a religious crisis while living on Bunker Hill.

Good to know that some of these people are literate, at least.

I find the reconnect window is wickedly useful for pruning friends I no longer interact with. And for that, I hope it stays there forever.

the whole reconnect thing is obviously just advertising to get people who rarely use facebook to use it more. i love when people get so mad at something that is so easily ignored.

Rows…read it again. It is 3 vignettes. The first one is where Liz tells James that Henry died. He is the guy that James was bashing.

In the last vignette, Chloe mentions her dead friend Brian.

It never says anywhere that Henry is dead. I’m pretty sure Henry’s alive and kickin’. Brian is the guy who is dead, from what I read… don’t know what you all were reading.

Tanizaki, so true. “You know, just because he was hit and killed by a car doesn’t change the fact that Henry was a cock to James in HS. Karma can be very vengeful.”

A guy who did his best to make high school hell for me died of stomach cancer a couple ofyears after graduation and people were suprised that I wasn’t interested in going to his funeral. Why the hell would I care? I actually think he is a much nicer person since his death.

Silent Koala’s blog really is the funniest thing I’ve read on the internet in a very long time- I just spent over and hour on there. Hilarious!!!! Thanks for the suggestion, jayjayuf.

@15 That cracked me up! Thanks for brightening my day.

@8 How did Jamie ‘obviously’ copy and paste from another ‘reconnect’, and moreover, why does it matter?! It doesn’t spoil the sarcasm effect.

I just had this conversation with someone on Facebook. I have the same problem…a friend who died over a year ago kept popping up on the “reconnect” shit. What am I supposed to do, Facebook, get a Ouija board app?

Facebook keeps asking me to reconnect with my aunt who hasn´t been able to use Facebook for a while because she´s dying of cancer, and a friend I haven´t been able to get in contact with for over a year and a half who I think might actually be dead. Thanks, FB.

I really hate Facebook’s new layout because it keeps insisting that I add people I went to high school with. I’ve been a member for a year…if I haven’t added them yet, it’s because they were dickheads and I don’t want to add them.

Even more annoying is when people I absolutely hated (and who hated me) add me as a friend…I’ve ignored several of those recently, including one who added me 4 times before giving up.

And I have to agree with the people defending James…just because the guy died doesn’t mean he isn’t a douchebag. If someone who treated me like shit in high school died, I’d go “Oh, how sad…” and that would be it. No tears, and they’d still be an asshole in my memories.

Why would Liz use Henry’s full name? It’s already been established which Henry is being talked about.

Nice to see that while Arturo is sick to his soul he still has time for a bit of good old fashioned facebooking. Don’t even want to imagine what his status updates would be like.

Geez, Arturo, way to make sure no one ever follows the suggestion to reconnect with you again!

I found it irritating enough when I was presented with “Friend Suggestions”. I have 169 people on my Block List to prevent just such a calamity. This new Reconnect thing is balls, though. Why do they think I deleted those people in the first place?
