      And yet my Facebook profile persists.

      I’m going to have to delete it myself, aren’t I? Why can’t some “hacker” just steal it and I never have to think about it again?

    I remember a similar comic where there was an additional panel where granny explained she wanted to get back at her friend Susan (or another name, can’t recall)
