Happily, (almost) all of my stupidity was pre-Facebook.  :)  When I went into the military years ago, I had to do the interviews, etc. I was told to be honest, and I was. They didn't shoot me, so it was good enough for them.

Cool! I will look at some stuff just to see what it's like. I'm pretty honest on interviews, too. If I know nothing about a topic, I'll say that.
