Facebook Pet Peeves

    Facebook isn't just for college and younger anymore. It has quickly become a VERY dominant networking tool for professionals.

    Hell, I do more business on Facebook than I do via email or in person ... with BOTH my jobs. And the people I do business with are as young as 21 and as old as 78.

    I hate the people that say the most random and stupid shit. Example: "Just got off work an hour early idk what ill do now prolly go home and eat dinner lol" --- shut the fuck up, no one cares. But then again, 97% of facebook is pointless garbage anyways.
  • friendfromlowry
    I also hate the people who use adjectives or nicknames within their actual names, like God forbid they be caught without it.
    "John MacDaddy Smith"
    "Latoya beauty Smith"

    Agreed.

    There is a lot of annoying stuff on Facebook...oh well. Just block it and/or the person responsible and the problem is solved.

    Do you get an influx of friend requests when you post pictures of yourself in low cut tops? Just curious, i would assume halloween and spring break are the two biggest spikes in girls getting friend requests.

    I have a lot of pet peeves for facebook. Many already mentioned. The one I didnt see is all of the stupid game invites. NO I DO NOT PLAY GAMES ON THERE QUIT SENDING ME A REQUEST FOR THE SAME GAME OVER AND OVER.

    "You think you're such a badass, how bout you say somethin to my face next time, bitch!"

    Random status updates calling people out, acting like a tough guy/gal, but doing it in a way where nobody knows who/what you are talking about....

    ^^ that drama shit is a big one for me as well. Im only a couple years out of high school so I have some people still in there as friends. I deleted about 30 people a week or so ago because of all that stupid drama shit in my timeline.

However they never really say what the problem is unless people prod them for it in the comments. Then if no one comments they will vaugebook until someone does.

    Don't be stupid, make sure to keep cute girls as friends so you can crash their parties when they make stupid updates about them.

    Eh, a lot of them I might have only talked to a few times in my life. Some are my sisters friends, she is graduating this year. I have no intent to crash parties with minors, lol. I live 2 hours away from home now anyways.

    I agree with many mentioned above, like using hashtags, vaguebooking, knicknames in middle names, people posting song lyrics all the time, and "woe is me" status updates. The app invites don't bother me because I've got them all blocked so I hardly ever see one.

    One other one that I will add it passive-aggressive status updates. If you have something to say about someone then either say it or keep it off of Facebook.

    Not that I recall but I automatically deny anyone I don't know anyways.

    "going to the mall"
    "eating dinner"
    "cant wait to go out tonight"
    "omg so happy"

    This is really the only one that annoys me. Parents please watch what your kids are doing. Other than this I can ignore the rest even if I do think it's stupid.

    For me, one of the things that bugs me the most is when they tag their kids or grandkids as themselves in photos. If I post pictures from something like a church event it always annoys me when someone goes in and tags themselves as their 4 year old kids. You are not your kids and your kids are not you! I always go back through and untag them.

    That's a dickhead move. Those people are tagging the kids as themselves so that the pictures show up on their profile so that other family members can see the pictures.

    What really annoys me about Facebook is the fact that people take it too seriously. It seems to give people a voice even though sometimes they should just shut the fuck up. Similar to what friendfromlowry touched on, excessive status updates discussing what people are ACTUALLY doing are pointless.

    Others use it to voice their batshit crazy opinions. Someone a few weeks ago posted a huge anti-gay rant. He got mad and unfriended me.

    But the worst people are the ones who post Bible quotes. Fucking idiots.

    really annoys me when girls say they are "married" to there best friend or when people list their friends as children/siblings/etc

    also when girls comment on any picture of themselves that isnt absolutely perfect with "ew" or "omg take this down" or "gross i look fat"

    Facebook automatically changing settings... pisses me off.

    Running a business page vs a personal page is a pain in the arse. I can easily find other business from my personal page, but not the business page.

    Well hell, would you be opposed to quoting Homer, Enuma Elish, Atrahasis?

    I quote the Bible in my favorite quotes: "There is death in this pot." - 2 Kings 4:40 :)

    1. the sideways peace sign
    2. saying "text me, cells good, cells on" in a status update coming from a mobile device
    3. blatantly self-gratifying postings - do i really care that you just ran 2 miles in a wife beater then did 63 sit ups and are topping it off with strawberry muscle milk?...the best part is these usually come from the out of shapers

    i recommend a "facebook cleanse" for everyone. last year, i deleted over 350 annoying ass facebookers (basically doing all the things that have been mentioned in this thread) and have never looked back. i didn't care if i had known them my whole life, if they were annoying the shit out me, they got the boot.
