I’d Photoshop a driver’s license for the dog and see if they would take it
They don’t. I tried. They send you a link to other kinds of pages that you can make instead like fan pages, etc.
This is actually a thing I’ve experienced. The dog has been dead for 4 years. Obviously, I’m friends with my dog, so it reminds me of her birthday (couple days ago) and then I remember that this account exists and they won’t let me delete it. I tried to report her as deceased and it wanted an obituary.
You should be able to tell Facebook they passed away, and turn it to a memorial page.
That’s what I tried to do, and that’s when it said to submit evidence. I was like, “uh, the evidence is that I was there when it happened and you can see from the profile that it’s for a DOG,” and they said that wasn’t good enough. I just gave up. Her profile will outlast all of us, probably.
I’d kinda hope that they don’t just take the word of any random person though - so much space for harassment otherwise
I don’t know. They probably ask “you dead?” and if you don’t reply, it means you’re dead.
Maybe you could email them a vet record instead? The vet can print out her vaccines and the computer will put a deceased label on it if shes marked as deceased. Vet records are technically legal documentation so they may qualify
A dog learning to drive is no more absurd than a dog having a Facebook account.
People like following pet’s accounts. Get over it.
Makes it not less absurd.
How come? People follow random celebrities who are not even cute.
And this is more absurd.
Our absurdity scales aren’t aligned.
Define “absurd.” I don’t think a dog having a Facebook is absurd as a dog driving, no, and i think that’s an absurd statement to make. And I’m going by the absurdist definition of absurd. People expect dog themed Facebooks. They don’t expect a dog to have a driver’s license or drive.
Not wanting to give Facebook my driver’s license is why I haven’t logged in for over 5 years.
Yes. Fuck Facebook
This sounds like a premise for one of those god-awful 1980s “comedy” movies.
Edit: this probably needs in own sub
The Shaggy Dog
You don’t need to teach the dog to drive, all you need is a learner’s license. Rig one up in photoshop… what are they going to spend the money to check it.
He can learn from the cat.
When did this start? I last logged into Facebook about a year ago because a high school classmate died and I was expected to post a few words. My account had been deactivated but not deleted for three or four years prior, and I had no issues.
Guessing they forgot the password, maybe had account recovery set up on an old phone. I would have had to do similar steps if I hadn’t held on to my previous phone after deciding I didn’t want to even set up fb on my newer phone and then it wanted me to verify a login on my app when I decided to check it on the desktop.
I got a transit card for my cat; I don’t see why this shouldn’t be possible.
Because they said somewhere else that the dog has been dead for a few years now ;0) unless, of course, that was someone else’s comment
So’s my cat, but the transit card is still in his name
