Area Woman’s Facebook Profile Reveals Disappointing Taste in Music, Movies
Posted on July 26, 2007Austin TX — After months of internet stalking co-worker Jessica Lanford, area librarian Dave Roday was first elated then disappointed when he finally was friended by Lanford on social networking website Facebook.com. “I’ve been avoiding adding her on Facebook because I just didn’t want to seem creepy or too forward or anything. I mean we talked a few times a week at work and stuff and I thought she was cute and all. But I didn’t want to cross that line and mess stuff up.” Despite the fact that Lanford’s profile wasn’t visible to Roday, he checked twice weekly to see if her thumbnail photo had changed. Roday assumed his luck had changed for the better when checking his email Tuesday, he saw a notification that he had a friend request from Lanford. Quickly logging in to the website, popular among teens and young adults, and confirming their friendship, he checked his co-worker’s profile.
However, his mood quickly darkened upon seeing her interests section. A scan of Lanford’s favorite movies revealed a strong liking for teen comedies. “I thought she seemed cool, I mean, she seemed pretty smart and all. I was thinking of inviting her over to my apartment to watch some Goddard films, but I guess I’d be better off with Mean Girls,” the disappointed librarian had to say. “When I saw her favorite bands, it was even worse. Dave Matthews, Coldplay, Creed, and I think I even saw My Chemical Romance. Man, I guess I really read her wrong.” Roday was overheard telling his roommate that despite his major disappointment, he might “still try to hook up with her once or twice.”
A later discovery found that Lanford had joined a Facebook group supporting a Republican candidate for governor. Roday refused to comment on the development.
