Okay, so maybe Facebook has gotten a little more serious lately, now that everyone is friends with their grandparents and co-workers. But for some reason, it still seems weird to me that President Obama has a Facebook page where people write all kinds of crazy things to him. Sure, some people give advice or thoughtful opinions, but a lot of people write to Obama like he’s a 19 year old dude from down the hall in their dorm.

For example, President Obama (or whoever manages his Facebook page) commented on yesterday’s election of a Republican to a historically Dem seat in Massachusetts by saying “Yesterday’s election shows discontent with the pace of change—a frustration I share. We must move forward and keep working together.”

Over 3,000 people have commented since yesterday and 12,000 gave the President a thumbs up.

Here are some of the comments that followed the President's wall post:
