Okay, when you log into Facebook, it shows you what your Facebook Friends are up to, right? Well, I logged in a minute ago and discovered that one of my FFs had just left a group called something like "I'm not a Groupie or a Roadie, I'm a Band-Aid!"
And looking at the name (and then the group description, because you know I went and looked) I was sorely puzzled. I mean, I know "band-aid" is a joke from Almost Famous. What confused me was the fact that the group description didn't draw any distinction between groupies and roadies.
Honestly, I'm not sure how anyone could confuse the two. If you don't mind a horsey comparison, it'd be like people who rodeo not being able to tell the difference between a buckle bunny and a stable hand.
I nearly joined the group just to see whether anybody ever asked that question, but we're trying to find a work-related application for Facebook so I decided it would be best if my Joel Plaskett and Matt Mays groups (and an infant one for Little Mosque) were my most informal groups.
Funny-as-hell group name, though...
