Oh yes, I've had loads of FB friends copying and pasting this. I did ask a couple of them what "Central Standard Time" is in the UK....deafening silence was followed by frantic inactivity haha!
I have a FB "friend" who once forwarded a post celebrating the birthday/anniversary of the "First woman on the Moon". (No, me neither....it turned out to be a character in a book)
One of my (quite lovely) FB friends posted a "belly" pic of herself at 6 months pregnant. All well and good but she was wearing the most awful, greying, saggy bra and horrible tracksuit bottoms which she had rolled down to display her baby bump. Worse of all, she reposted the pic last month on her "Year in Review" status!!!
