Greasemonkey + Facebook

Psst, facebook, I don't want to be friends with random people just because "we both went to UBC", or "we both live in Vancouver". UBC is pretty big, so is Vancouver. I also don't want to become fans of things just because my friends have. So.. bye-bye suggestion box:

Step 1, install greasemonkey: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/748

Step 2, install this greasemonkey script, just detaches the suggestion box from the HTML, making it disappear, the more elegant solution would be if facebook would just not send the HTML in the first place.. but that's asking too much mehtinks: http://slicer.ca/files/facebook_desuckify.user.js

Step 3, enjoy facebook without the stupid suggestion box.
