This is one of those articles that write themselves. It’s kind of a venting piece for me so I will do my best to keep it lighthearted and not go crazy… pun intended.
 
If you are dealing with crazy or crazies as I have, you may be thinking things like: why?¬†who is this guy? what did i attract, crazy? If this is you or has been you let me go ahead and answer some of these questions for you. I don’t know. I don’t know. Nothing. I could stop there, but I will give my crazy story.
 
It seems as though there are still people out there that think making bomb threats on a public place or a government building is funny. It’s not, just in-case you didn’t get the memo. Well to all you out there (crazies) that think it’s funny to get on facebook and pretend to be something your not or make threats that you wouldn’t in person, well… we are onto you. And have been for sometime.
 
I had a fellah get on my business facebook page and make some wild claims about blowing up a community center where I do a lot of work. No big deal, I’ll just report him, facebook will do the rest. Turns out the guys behind facebook, the place where you don’t actually have to have a life to have a life, don’t have a life and don’t care about when someone reports crazies. I know that’s more of a rant but it feels like they didn’t
think it was legit or they would have beat me to the police. I digress.
 
The threat proceeded into the day but getting more wild, and dare I say, crazy. This guy wanted to blow up the center in 10 days, then 9 days, then 8 days. All the way down to 6 days these threats kept coming in. I made no bones about reporting Crazy the first day, I was assured by the slue of police and detectives that this would be taken care of. After a couple of days, the FBI, a police helicopter, and the swat team doing two raids we were back to good, but still left with the question, who would be crazy enough to make such a crazy statement and not think they would be nailed to the wall on it? We are still waiting on that answer. Even though the crazies involved have been taken down we still wonder what kind of crazy these guys were consuming so we can stay away from it.
 
If that isn’t crazy enough I have had another Facebook encounter with a crazy guy that thinks he can ego his way into personal training. Making all kinds of crazy random statements and then getting crazy about me not answering his crazy ass. Why would I? I mean he said, and I quote, “I am really good at making workout playlists”. I know that could take him far, at least for step aerobics, but that hardly qualifies you to be a trainer. On a side note, he has one really big muscle that doesn’t need any help by working out. His ego! Even after slapping him around with his own statements he still called me a thief and told me that I didn’t look like I have ever worked out… just to name a few things that he wouldn’t ever say in person. Which leads me to another muscle that could stand my foot buried in it.
 
Either way, you can see that this is just the type of thing that we can expect from Facebook. Well that and people friending you to see your pics, or who you married. Crazy takes many forms, but just rememeber that if you are really pissed about it, if you just relax and walk away you win. If crazy starts to walk behind you spouting crazy things, just donkey kick it in the groin and press on. You’ll be stronger for it, and you WILL have the last word. Facebookers be warned, if you can’t say anything nice… don’t post it on someones site you don’t know because he may hunt you down and donkey kick you in the groin. Or don’t say anything at all.
