What to do on November 7 on Facebook?

[MineralMan]

On Facebook, I pretty much limit myself to old friends and family. The thing is that some of them are extreme Romney fans, and have been posting incessantly and annoyingly during the campaign. I've just stopped bothering to go to Facebook much because of it.

So, what do I do on November 7, after the votes have been counted and President Obama has been re-elected?

1. Very few of my friends (from both camps) post anything political at all

So nothing will change for me.

[MineralMan]

3. I wish that were true for me.

I love my family, but there are too many right-wingers in it.

[Lucinda]

36. Bills brother is a bit extreme, but we don't talk politics at all.

All the other Reps around us are a bit more on the sane side. None of them like Romney.

6. Excellent suggestion! Seriously.

I'm saving that to my hard disk for uploading that day. Thanks!

[Mad_Dem_X]

16. I like that!

I may have to steal that.

4. Nov 7? Multiple high-fives for everyone for their GOTV efforts.

What's Facebook?

[MineralMan]

7. Nice!

[hrmjustin]

8. I would be gracious in victory.

[MineralMan]

13. I've avoided posting on FB during the campaign.

That's as gracious as I can get. I have lots of ugly that has built up.

[woodsprite]

9. Post a beautiful pic of the first family. :)

[MineralMan]

12. I like that idea, too.

I'll have one ready.

[RichGirl]

10. Something else....

Be mature about it. We aren't republicans...we are the grown ups.

There is always another election, a mid-term when we'd like more democrats in congress. Every republican is a potential democrat. So, don't be an ass!

[jorno67]

11. Post pictures of all my meals that day...

I've never done that before - but that seems to be the only non-political activity on facebook...Well that and kittens.

[Mad_Dem_X]

14. I'll post, just once, something like

"Hahahahahahaha" or "Yahoo!" or something to that effect.

[abelenkpe]

15. post something non political

designed to make people go: : awwwwwwwww

like grumpy cat or a puppy live cam

[MineralMan]

17. Maybe just a photo of Bo outside the White House.

That would be a subtle dig.

[abelenkpe]

27. That would be perfect! Nt

[OldHippieChick]

18. Maybe something more subtle

Like "my eye has finally quit twitching and know I will sleep well tonite for the first time in months"

[CrispyQ]

22. I like that.

[HappyMe]

19. I'm pretty lucky, in that

none of my very few friends and family post anything political on fb. I like it that way.

[MineralMan]

21. That's always been my decision, too.

I keep politics off Facebook. I actually posted something last week to that effect and noted that we'd all have to get along after the election, so maybe we should scale back the animosity. People actually did scale back for a couple of days, but it ramped up again.

[HappyMe]

25. Ugh!

I actually had to unfriend somebody from high school. All she posted was political stuff. I never commented on it. She got miffed and asked my why I had nothing to say. 'Wasn't I a good Dem? Whatsa matter?' I told her that I pretty much use fb to catch up on people's lives, no worries I'm solidly in Obama's corner. She then started posting all sorts of inane cat stuff. Unfriended and blocked.

Sorry you have to deal with that.

[tjwash]

26. Just one? I'm up to about 8 ex-highschool friends, 2 nephews, and a cousin

I guess there's a reason I only see the some of these people every ten years at reunions.

[HappyMe]

29. I only have about 20 friends.

I'm still friends on fb with my 2 best friends from high school. I haven't ever been to a reunion.

Now that I think about it, I unfriended a 2nd cousin too. She dressed her tiny dog up in outfits and posted pictures. A LOT of pictures.

[tjwash]

32. 2 20-something nephews in West Virginia

Both gun nuts. The gun part, I usually don't mind, but they both live with mom and dad, and refuse to get jobs.Then they act like the guns are theirs and that they bought them, when in reality, it's their parents that buy them arsenals of assault rifles and ammo. Then of course it was constant NRA propaganda, white supremacist crap, and anti-dem stuff, that got on my nerves the last couple of months.

Of course their dad cussed me out an unfriended me first, after I had enough of the same crap from him, and pointed out that for all the money that they spent on weapons and ammo on the 2 brats, he could have bought them both a car and gas so that they could drive to a freakin' job interview and make their own money.

I usually give people 3 strike before I hit use the unfriend hammer, and they both went through them really quick. Sad that they both open their mouths and their dads voice pops out of it, and they just don't see it.

34. Yah. My brother-in-law in California is the worst.

He'll be picking me up on Christmas Day at the Burbank airport, though, so I can visit my old home town. So, I don't want to piss him off too much.

[Flashmann]

20. Other

Having never subscribed to,or even visited facebook,I suppose I'll have to continue wallowing in my scorn for,and derision of it.....

[tjwash]

23. Have some awesome coffee, then hit the surf on the Kona north shore.

Scam some of da-kine Kona-bud and watch the waves break after I finish up my morning sets. Maybe gloat to my Boston and Maine peeps on facebook sending them pics of my stoned ass kicking it on the hot sand, while they freeze their tail feathers off (yeah Pitt - I'm talking to you - better get ready for that barrage )


Going there on the 5th for the Kona Coffee fest. I already mailed my ballot in, so its all out of my hands now.

[Risen Demon]

24. Post "Hey Republicans..."

[TeamPooka]

28. Forget it Jake, it's Facebook. nt

[JI7]

30. rub it in their face if they start posting really hateful things

but if they are just upset or don't really post anything about it don't be rude about it.

[ProudProgressiveNow]

31. I never gloat, but I do ...

celebrate with fellow progressives.

[PowerToThePeople]

35. where's the "I do not Facebook" option?

[MineralMan]

37. I didn't include that because I do use Facebook, so that answer

wouldn't really be useful to me at all.

[appacom]

38. Post exactly what you're feeling at the moment

Can you imagine what a love fest that will be?

[bluedigger]

39. I'll probably demand lists of weapons with serial numbers.

Maybe take meal orders for transportation to the camps. People have so many food allergies these days.
