  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,072 ✭✭✭PeterIanStaker


    I dont post proverbs, I use inspirational quotes from famous people instead. My most recent one was:

    "Suck my d!ck" - Ron Jeremy

    still trying to figure out why nobody has "liked" it yet.

    Have you not come across the 'status shuffle'? Wait until you see that piece of shyte. Hilarious status updates brought to you by facebook for those who are too gormless to think of the witty quip they need to relay to the world on a daily basis.

    Why are you having a dig at posters on here? Just reply to the status update you don't like and tell them so! Jeez :confused:

    I think they were trying to be helpful, by telling you to contact the person directly. I'm not trying to tell you what you are or are not allowed to do either.

    I have a few friends who do this all the time without fail, mainly U2 lyrics or foo Fighters.

    Its so annoying, why re-hash the lyrics, seriously :mad:

    As it should be.
    People seem to take facebook far too seriously.

    Those groups too. There was one asking people to find Maddie McCann.
    I said that I had her in my basement. The Admin said that they were reporting me to the police.
    I then said that I don't have a basement.
    The admin proceeded to ask me where I was holding her hostage if I don't have a basement.

    No sense of humour, these people.

    One I saw recently:

    "Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go,be what you want to be. Because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do :):)"


    STFU! You spend on average six hours a day on Facebook and you're dishing out sentiments on how everyone should be seizing the day.
