I’m not on Facebook that often. I used to be on it every day while my kids were growing up. But now I don’t think of it that often. I post my wildlife photos on Instagram and they automatically get posted to FB.
Anywho. I was surprised when my daughter texted me and asked why I had posted something about her pug Waffles on FB. I told her I didn’t. She said the post was getting comments including from my sister-in-law, moms from my kids’ grade school that I haven’t talked to since then. It was getting likes, hearts and hugs.
Next I got a phone call from my dad asking what in the heck was going on with Waffles.
“Nothing,” I said. “He turned 10 years old in August.”
My dad explained that he had seen a Facebook post and that Waffles was having emergency surgery.
Somehow this memory from 2021 was showing up in people’s feeds. I looked at my Facebook page and it wasn’t there.
Five years ago, Waffles had eaten a chunk of wood from a planter and it lodged in his small intestine. He had to have emergency surgery but is fine now except for getting older.
When Waffles was a pup.
Are you on Facebook and have you had an old memory pop up that people thought was current and commented on? If so, what was the post about?
How often do you use Facebook compared to years ago?
That’s rather odd isn’t it? I have never used FB and never will as I have heard so many bad things happening to people through their own fault. I’m surprised that platform is still going. Waffles should eat waffles, not wood. 😂❤️😍
That’s great you stayed off of FB. And yes, waffles would be better than chunks of wood for Waffles. 😉
Glad to know the answer is that Waffles is fine and this is old news! I dropped FB many, many years ago. It was a thing when the kids were in school, parent info and such but after about 8th grade I never used it and deleted my account. I don’t do any form of social media. Just not a fan.
Yes, it s good news that Waffles is healthy. Good for you for dropping FB and social media.
Pugs are so reassuring! Glad Waffles is fine. Yes, some social media can be helpful and some you take with a grain of salt. Rasputin believes he needs to do my PT with me each morning and then sniffs my hair. Funny!
Pug’s are the best! Waffles is such a character. Good luck with PT.
