Are you sick of Facebook updating itself? Silly question, of course you are. We all are, because the site forces upon us an endless stream of updates that are supposed to improve the site but just end up pissing us off. That's why this following video "A Facebook Update in Real Life" is so hilarious -- because we can all relate.

In it, the sketch comedy group Extremely Decent shows how the unending updates would play out in real life. We see a Facebook rep come right into a guy's house and start updating and moving things around -- his couch is replaced with a chair, and his TV downsized to accommodate a bookshelf. Then he moves to privacy settings. "Will you stop resetting my privacy settings?!" the poor user begs before Facebook shows him the new privacy door and window, thorough which, of course, all of his "friends" can crawl.

You know that thing they keep saying on Game of Thrones: "For the night is dark and full of terrors"? Swap "night" with "Internet" and you've got about the only explanation I can come up with for the existence of the unbelievably offensive "F'N Wook" Facebook page that's devoted to degrading female members of the U.S. Marine Corps.

Thanks to U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, who fired off a letter to the Secretary of Defense alone with top military brass, the page has been taken down -- but not before it racked up an astounding 10,000 likes for what Speier describes as a "culture of misogyny and sexual harassment."  Worse, it appears the F'N Wook page has been on the Marines' radar for three years.

Just when you thought you'd heard it all when it comes to people using Facebook for ill-advised activities, here's a story of a Michigan woman who's accused of setting up a Facebook account in order to stalk herself. Yes, you read that right: Cheryl Nelson, 52, allegedly created a fake Facebook profile with her ex-boyfriend's personal information, and proceeded to use it in order to make it appear as though her ex's new girlfriend was harassing her.

The truly strange part about this story is that according to the details of the case, Nelson didn't even bother to cover her trail, and cops easily discovered evidence of her Facebook-finagling when they searched her home computer. When will people learn? If you commit the crime, ERASE YOUR TIMELINE.

Here's a handy new feature that Facebook rolled out today: it's called "Trusted Contacts," and it lets you select up to five friends who can have complete unfettered access to your personal Facebook account. Boy, doesn't that sound great? With just a few mouse clicks, your prank-loving friend Bill can swap out your profile photo with a crude sketch of a penis, and add "Ball gags" to your list of Likes.

Of course, that's not really what Trusted Contacts is for. It's to help you if you accidentally get locked out of your account. But when Facebook says, "Think of it like giving your house key to a friend when you go on vacation -- pick the friends you trust the most," I can't help thinking of how this feature has the potential to backfire.

Hey, Facebook friends and non-friends! How much are your Facebook friends worth to you? Yeah, I know, they're priceless, right? Especially those ones who Vaguebook and Mommyjack. They're always worth a laugh. But I'm talking money terms here. Did you know when we "like" our favorite brands on Facebook, it's just like giving them cash? A new study that claims that companies make $174.17 for every Facebook "like" that you give them. This is because fans of brands on Facebook spend $116 or more a year on a brand's products than do non-fans. And they're more loyal. And they spend more on those types of products in general. And blah blah blah. But seriously, how much are your friends worth? I decided to do my own Facebook friend value study. It's very scientific, I swear.

Here are 18 Facebook friends and what they're worth.

The Internet has been a real boon to crime solvers. It seems like every other day we hear about the Internet or social media as the platform that helped solved a crime. Think of the Steubenville rapists. Autumn Pasquale's suspected killers were arrested after their own mother saw them make incriminating comments on Facebook. But who knew that Facebook could solve a cold case crime that was 45 years old! That's reportedly what happened when a retired detective decided to post about an unsolved crime regarding a 4-year-old girl who died after being hit by a car that then took off from the scene.

You can always count on our representatives in Washington, D.C., can't you? They've always got our backs! Of course, by now you must know this is leading nowhere good, because who would say that with a straight face? Congress reportedly voted down a bill that would have made it illegal for employers to demand your Facebook and other social media account passwords as a condition of employment. Hmm. Since we, the taxpayers, employ these representatives, does that mean we can also demand their passwords?

Would you be surprised if you saw an ad for a gun on Facebook? I'm not sure I would -- I mean, I've seen a thousand ads for bogus weight loss products that are falsely endorsed by Dr. Oz, so I pretty much assumed anything could go -- but apparently it's against company policy to advertise weapons on the social media site. The specific language from Facebook reads, "Ads may not promote the sale or use of weapons, ammunition, or explosives."

So you'd think if someone snuck a forbidden ad past the regulatory guidelines, Facebook would just delete the ad, right? Well, in the case of several gun sellers who ran a sweepstakes for an AR-15 rifle recently, Facebook didn't just kill the promotion -- they killed the company pages altogether. In one case, a business lost more than 27,000 hard-won followers with this single punitive action by Facebook.
