live and die by the rosham

Last night, I entered another hilarious rosham, as is my wont.

Someone was adamant about refusing to join Facebook, so I proposed the only reasonable solution, viz. rosham she had to join.

An observer noted that it was a rather unfair, one-sided rosham. Now, normally I can talk the other person into the one-sided rosham, but last night, I thought it would be way funnier to flip the tables on myself and make it extremely unfair in the other direction, by putting up the offer of quitting Facebook if I lost.

I lost.

It turns out deleting your FB account is hard. They hide the link and encourage you to “deactivate” instead, which keeps all of your information around. I guess I could have done that, but I’ve never welshed on a rosham before, and not about to start now over some silly web page.

This is the link you’re looking for: http://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=delete_account

But don’t panic — you’re already reading my blog which makes you cool, and if you want access to my hilarious braignettes, you should follow me on twitter.

Liberation.
