I haven't been paying much attention to the new Facebook apps stuff. I decided to check it out by seeing if I could get an aftermarket mod for the stuff Facebook doesn't cover - enemies and things you hate, rather than friends and favorites.
I did find an enemies list app, but paradoxically you have to be friends with your enemies in order for it to work, which kind of defeats the purpose. I may give PJ a hard time but he isn't my enemy, and I won't friend my actual enemies just for the privilege of calling them my enemies. The one person I can think of off the top of my head is a pretty lousy enemy anyway. I don't have a true arch-nemesis sort of thing going on. Mostly I find single-serving nemeses in traffic, morons that do 23 in a 30 zone and the like.
I also found some more generic hate lists. One allowed you to type in anything you were currently hating on. That would be good for say, the asshole in the Civic who refused to suck it up and merge behind me on a 2-to-1 onramp. On my birthday. Unfortunately that app still has some major bugs in it so you can't edit things correctly.
The other hate list app lets you list TV shows, music, movies and books you hate. I was having trouble thinking of things I actually hated - I don't like Seinfeld, but I wouldn't go so far as saying I hate it. I managed to come up with a couple items but after I did, I realized that posting them defeats the purpose. I just wish they would cease existing, they don't deserve being called to attention.
Thus, I have removed all of the apps.
