Chewer facebook Friends

post #1 of 86
Thread Starter 

I'm friends on facebook with a lot of the ladies and gents who are members of this forum, and I've gotten to know some of them better by chatting with them over there, or posting on their facebook status updates. 

 

My questions are, anybody on here become friends with other Chewers on facebook, because they posted on here, or did you already know them? Did you have a pre-conceived notion about a Chewer from here, and then think differently about them, once you became friends on facebook? Anybody you chat with more over there, than here?

post #2 of 86

Any Chewer I'm friends with on Facebook is because of CHUD. 

 

Though I have to admit, I'm not always totally sure who is who.  I'll generally accept the friendship request of anyone who has Chewer friends in common.

 

I post on yours (Rene)

Mr. Butler's

Brendan's

Ripoll's

RD's

Spike's

Nexus-7's

Jake's

Gabe Powers

Tati's

Diva's

Elisabeth Rappe's

and several more. 

 

You jerks got me into the vicious spiral that is Facebook addiction!!!!  None of my non-Chewer friends can say the same.  Hahahahah

 

For the most part, everyone has generally been the way they are on CHUD.

I know what you mean, Nooj. I chat and post on walls from my Chewer friends than anybody I know from around here. I get friend requests from people went to school with, but I don't talk to them that much.

 

Chewers are much more fun to chat with, and yeah, ever since I got into facebook last year I've become addicted as well.

If there's one thing I can always count on, it's that! And us making Jeremy's update into one long Simpsons quote.

My Facebook feed is full of Chewers and the family members who managed to track me down. As such my feed is usually cluttered with awesome musings on movies, music, and videogames and insane racist/nationalistic/homophobic rhetoric. I like to think I'm not quite as cunty on Facebook as I am here.

post #7 of 86

I have a shit tonne of chewers as facebook friends but I have a confession to make and here seems as good a place as any.

 

I'm horrible at matching up chewer usernames here with actual facebook friends there. With most we probably let each other know who we were when we first friended each other, but with many people I've completely forgotten since. As a consequence I feel like with some of you I may be interacting with you here and there and not realize I'm chatting with the same person. It's infuriating and embarrassing and if you're one of the unwitting chewers I'm referring to, mea culpa, I apologize.

 

I'm shit with names and faces in real life. Online it's a nightmare.

I'd actually agree with this. You're also surprisingly likeable on xbox live as well.

I'm hoping you don't find my CHUD and FB handles too much at odds.


 

 

post #9 of 86

yeah nooj left me off that list to :(

 

Friends with a ton of Chewers on FB and have made some goods friends on there (via) here.  A lot of the old guard like Dickson and Phil post a fair bit and some decent discussions are to be had.

post #10 of 86

Sorry guys!  I added a bunch of those names after the fact, but knew I forgot a bunch of them.

Ugh... double post.

No harm, no foul. I'm really just poking fun at myself, or attempting to do so.

TOO BAD, second-tier!!!  I've added you both!

 

post #14 of 86

Since I'm more of a lurker to the boards (and how I've gotten nearly 900 posts is beyond me) I've gotten to know more Chewers over on Facebook. I've chatted a bit with Michael, Phil and Jake, and I must say that they are all stand-up Gentlemen. Doesn't hurt that they're funny as hell too.

post #15 of 86

I wouldn't mind a few more chewer facebook friends....

 

Especially if they're all like Nooj, who gives awesome facebook comments referencing movies. 

 

Though, my facebook is full of dperessing post statuses and girly shit. 

post #16 of 86
Thread Starter 

Yeah, if any Chewers in here who post on facebook want to be my friends on facebook, I won't deny them. Nooj is always a gas, as is Walker, HunterTarantino, JG Butler, Erix, and Jake.

post #17 of 86

Long as you bother to match a name with a screen name in the invite, and as long as you can deal with me having the occasional run of posts like my interminable chronicle of wading through the Planet of the Apes sequels, I'll always add a Chewer. You guys are the reason my Facebook feed is both busy, and yet lacking in the douchebaggery I hear others complain about.

 

Fun sidenote, though: haven't seen hide or hair from Frank Cobretti around these parts in months, but he added me on Google+. That was a pleasant surprise. As will be his inevitable headshot through my living room window.

post #18 of 86

He added me on Google+ too.  But I had absolutely no idea who he was until I looked closely at his profile pic.  Then I went:

"HIS NAME'S NOT FRANK COBRETTI?????" (no, I have not seen Cobra...)

post #19 of 86

I'm on Facebook (Dylan Friedman), and Google+ (captaincanada84@gmail.com). I've got a Chud circle on Google+ so I know who people are. Go ahead and add me to either if you havent!

Unless you've pulled a real swiftie with that username you have, I'd like to hope not. Hell I chat to you, nooj and Diva as much as anyone among my fb friends.

 

post #23 of 86

I dig chatting with fellow chewers on facebook. Feels like less of an echo chamber.

 

Welcome to add me if we're not already friends. Evi Katz.

post #24 of 86

I have an FB profile and I like the idea of yappng it up with Chewers on there but I only manage to get on there once every couple of weeks so I'd be worried that my lack of dedication to that site would be misinterpreted as a lack of dedication to my Chewers. I have The Nunz but nobody else from Chud yet.

 

On the plus side, while I haven't had a crack at it yet, from what I've heard the Google + seems like a much better, cleaner setup than Facebook and I plan to get all up in it within the next month or so.

 

If anyone wants to reach across the oceans feel free to look up Ben Hansen on FB or shoot an invite to benhansenrules@gmail.

post #25 of 86

Havent joined the Google+ bandwagoon yet but my Facebook name is in my signature text if anyone wants to add me.

post #26 of 86

I'm still a bit new here, but feel free to hit me up on Facebook.

hello chud. its been a while. Vacation and all. On FB the name is Dave Cubed. add as you'd like :)

post #28 of 86

 I chat more with Chewers on Facebook than CHUD these days. You all are the best. Also, don't friend Jake unless you want your feed spammed with his horrible bus stories. :P

post #29 of 86

You all can find moi at Erik Ratliff where you can read all about my perpetual complaints about both L.A. traffic and its online dating scene.  Both tragic in their own way.

I am not one to say no to new friends!!

 

Andre Vancellote, at your service!

post #31 of 86

hello new fb friends.

post #32 of 86

So, this doesn't really pertain to Facebook friends, but it IS about Facebook.

 

Is CHUD working on some way to integrate the message boards to our Facebook accounts?  Every time I post in a thread, I see a Facebook pop-up that seems like it's asking if I would like to have my post appear on my Facebook profile.  But before I can do anything about it, it disappears.

post #33 of 86

Yes, you have the ability to log into CHUD with your Facebook account. If you do so, you'll have the ability to post news items, reviews, etc. on Facebook via CHUD.

post #34 of 86

Yeah, but there's a tick-box to enable transfer between Chud and Facebook. What I'm getting is a facebook pop-up, for about half a second, like it's accessing my feed and then it posts. Being happening for me since Monday.

post #35 of 86

Have you ever put a post of yours onto Facebook itself?  I know that my CHUD login and Facebook are connected, but that specific thing seemed new.

post #36 of 86

There is a way to disable it, there is something you have to tick on here. If I remember correclty it's in the profile section.

post #37 of 86

I'm friends with a lot of CHUD people on Facebook and it's super entertaining, if anyone wants to add me go ahead (Natalie Zaracko) just let me know who you are :)

post #38 of 86

Pete Burns(generic version of my real name. I hate google). My avatar right now is from the Fountain. Hit me up and hear me whine and make bad jokes.

 

I will whore out my comic page too, be warned haha.

 

post #39 of 86

I'm friends with a ton of chewers, and they're generally more interesting than my real friends.  Well, they have better taste in movies/music/books/etc., at any rate.  I'm always up for adding more of the fine folks from this community to my friend list, so feel free to locate me.  Here, I'll even make it easy for you.  Hopefully that takes you right to my page.

 

On a side note, anyone know who Blix Nix is around here?  He friended me the other day, and I have no idea who this person is, but I'm assuming he's a Chewer, considering all our mutual friends are from the boards.  Just wondering.

I was wondering who he is too, but as with all of my Chewer FB friends, he's pretty hilarious.

Agreed.  Like I said, just curious.

If he's here on the boards, he can always come into this thread and let us know who he is. Of course, we can always ask him on FB who he is on here.

post #43 of 86

That would be cheating!

 

I've got a mildly avoidant personality, and therefore limit my Facebook friendage to family and coworkers.  Know that if I were less of a solitary type, I would friend you all, and it delights me that this Chewer Facebook friend network is a thing that exists.

post #44 of 86

Blix Nix is a non-Chewer friend of Greg David (who doesn't post around here much anymore).  It's not his real name (and I will refrain from mentioning it myself).  But it just seems like he saw how awesome we were and wanted to join in on the fun. 

 

Really... Facebook Chewers are awesome.  You guys are why I never get my work done.

post #45 of 86

It's kinda awesome  that, thanks to the chewer fb network, I bring up my profile and it says I share a dozen mutual friends with Werner Herzog or Michael Biehn to name just a few.

 

I get a little geek thrill at that.

Edgar Wright and Kane Hodder have popped up for me and I laugh. Then I'm tempted to add Edgar Wright and then I realize how pointless that would be(hey, I follow him on Twitter). I have nothing to say to Kane Hodder(sorry buddy!).

post #47 of 86

I knew 'Frank Cobretti' through other channels long before my CHUD days, but it took me years to figure out that it was him here. I don't have many FB friends via CHUD, though Phil did track me down. I'm generally pretty cautious about who I add.

Blix Nix is one of Greg David's real life friends who really enjoys talking movies so befriended all the Chewers.

 

ETA: Or what Nooj said.

Blix Nix is a stand up gent. Really funny, and I'm happy to make his acquaintance. He's got a Chewer sensibility. I'm always happy to see what Nooj has posted, or Jake, or Greg, or Erix, or HunterTarantino, or Walker, or anyone else on here! Made friends with S.D. Bob Plissken too. He's quite the funny guy.

 

 

You people are really what keeps me posting on facebook. I got invited to my 10 year high school reunion and basically said no, as it's just a small group of the former "in" crowd getting together. A Chewer meet up? I'm friggin' there.
