Own/buy your friends...

[dalekboy]

On a completely different note, am I the only one who finds Facebook applications like Own Your Friends/Buy Your Friends, kind of skin crawlingly offensive?

I'm not for sale, I am not owned. What there is of me, my friendship, love, and affection, is given freely, as it should be.

To me it's just a frivolous trading card game, where all you're "purchasing" is tokens that happen to be decorated with pictures people have posted of themselves, or in one case of plasticine models ve's used in lieu of profile pics.

Myself and a dozen friends dabble with one of them - but as with most games there I try not to pester anyone who isn't actively participating.
