What are the National Security Agency’s biggest problems?

Well, first of all, “the super-secret National Security Agency, where you’re practically strip-searched to get in, recruits on Facebook.”

Secondly, the NSA’s Facebook group accepted me, the gossip blogger.

Thirdly, there are NSA groupies on the recruitment page — as in ladies who beg agents to add them as friends by posting notes on the discussion board.

And, the fourth problem with the NSA: OMG their Facebook group is so freaking boring. They have no photos. (Quelle horror!)

But — the funniest part of the recruitment page is, clearly, a conversation between a Facebooker (who cannot spell so well) and a recruiter:

“I was dumb wen I was younger and got in trouble and got a simple poss of marijuana charge. Does that automatically disqualify me? I don’t see why my childhood mistake should hold my life back.” — Facbook guy

“The security clearance process looks at the whole person so I would still encourage you to apply.” — NSA recruiter

… Just. Shoot. Me. Now.
