I HATE FACEBOOK!
YIKES! If ever there were any doubt whatever that Facebook is a viral, seething pustule that leeches upon one unduly, I just received this email--sent to one of my active email addresses:

"Welcome back. Your account has been reactivated. Please note it may take several hours for your groups, events, notes, and other content from applications to be fully restored. Thank you for your patience."

I went to Facebook and was required to sign in with my defunct/inaccessible email address—at which point I was yet again thwarted when attempting to delete my account.
