2) Forty-eight per cent of 18 to 34 year olds say the first thing they do when they wake up is check Facebook. Me? I’m trying to piece together the night before, wondering how I got home and how these bruises got there! And…whose house is this anyway?

9) Eighty-five per cent of women are annoyed by their Facebook friends, which begs the question: how did a website stop 15% of women from secretly hating their friends?
