My news feed could be mistaken for a complaints column in a newspaper- seriously frustrating me! Everything from Meteor to local shops- seriously if people want to complain why can't they just go to the shop to complain or write a letter of complaint!

Complaints columns usually have better articulated arguments and grammar. My unrestricted newsfeed is a wallow of depression filled with stupid ad homs and passionate tirades against big organisations, usually written in a language that you have remind yourself is actually English using some type of needless compression filter.

that's one stupid status I actually agree with. Hero might be a strong word but that guy has been through a lot the past week and acted nothing but professional on Sunday night.

true - but thinking it and posting about it on facebook are two different things. it's his personal issue and people are posting about it on facebook like they're his mates! the rip poppy barlow statuses were the final straw for me and my page is now deleted.

Drives me crazy too. The problem is that a lot of people think Facebook is the default way to communicate. They have no notion that an email, phonecall or contact through the company's website is the way to go about making a complaint.

I think they're trying to embarrass them. What's irritating is that it probably works.

on this, losing a close family member is a pretty major thing. it throws people off balance and a lot of the time they are trying to continue on as normal, It's just that they have no idea what's normal for the situation they are in. I think people should get a free pass from these kind of things at times like that. I understand why you think it's inappropriate but in the circumstances I think it's understandable.

Actually, when i lost a family member I posted it up a week later. It was just saying thanks to everyone who had supported us. I felt it would be tacky to post it up before that point.

Thing is, it is such an easy way to communicate. It's far easier to post up the time of the funeral there than it is to field a load of calls.

Sorry can any1 relate to me on this one?

Iam friends on FB with one or two people who are abroad doing TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) in places like Korea etc..

What f*cking irrates me is the way they constantly rant on post pictures about THEIR students, my little students are the best, love my students, so nervous for my students today or;

"just back from a wonderful field trip with my students today". like WTF?

They automatically think their like university professors just cos they done a 6 week course before they left to hold up placards of ABCD to infant Korean childern. The funny thing is they cant even speak the native language or talk to the kids, just hold up pictures and tell them the meaning in English.. Like she even has that her profession is a Teacher..

basically they are glorified babysitters.

KISS my ASS!!!

What should they call the kids? They don't literally mean the students are their sons and daughters. That's the standard way of talking about students.

I have a few colleagues who have no idea how to use ellipses (the little dots at the end of a sentence) and put them in everywhere. Last week: "Happy birthday to my wonderful sister.....hope you have a fantastic.....day.....". Seriously, use a comma or a full stop or anything, it reads like he's falling asleep as he types!

I don't understand the modern passion for overusing ellipses either. So much of facebook English is based on making language simpler, but this is more work than just using a full stop. I have one friend who always does it; it makes everything seem so... sarcastic or... worse... sinister...

She'd put up something like "Well done Katie Taylor..." (seems sarcastic) or "Happy birthday to my little man..." (very sinister)

"I always thought the idea of porn influencing people was rubbish but looking at how teenage girls can only take photos of themselves while looking up towards a camera is quite worrying."

Even worse, I've seen screen-caps from Twitter where people thought he was the singer from Green Day (that's Billie Joe Armstrong - who wasn't even born when the moon landing happened!), as well as Lance Armstrong and an actor from How I Met Your Mother. Idiots...

I don't get why these people don't just do a quick Google search, instead of broadcasting their stupidity all over Facebook/Twitter like that. Do they think it's cute, or cool, or something?

Some people think its cool and funny to be stupid. Very childish. I remember in school when we were about 13/14, you were a loser if do well in christmas/summer exams. I think some never grew out of that mode.

From the picture you can understand how people think she looks like a celebrity, Katie Price and Amy Childs apparently.

Sorry picked that up wrong, it should have been RIP Buzz Aldrin.

+100000000000000000 for the complaints to companies uhhhhhhhh!!!

i didnt read through the whole thread but what reallllllly annoys me is the following:

- 'snuggling up with the best boyfriend in the whole wide world eating chinese'.......... do i care??? NO!!

- desperado's complaining that they are home alone and if only a hunky man would come to them. Then they wonder why the nutters ask them on dates! Do they not realise that being THAT desperate does not attract the hunky men!!

- females boasting about their huge 'assets'... get a life!!

- people doing stupid poses for pictures and even worse taking a pic in the mirror and the camera can be seen!!!

- people posting pictures of their meals..... If it's some sort of an amazing desert that has been constructed to look like something fabulous then lovely but if its spaghetti bolognaise then get a life!


If only people were as perfect as me..... if only :rolleyes:

Often posted by, let's say, the larger lady! Huge assests cannot be used as a disguise for carrying extra pounds!

Facebook is now a publicly traded entity. It is recommended that all members post a notice similar to this, or if you prefer you can copy and paste this release. If you do not publish such a statement at least once, then you are indirectly allowing public use of such items as your photos and information contained in their status updates. PRIVACY NOTICE: Warning - any person and / or institution an d / or Agent and / or Agency of any governmental structure including but not limited to the United States Federal Government will gain access to my facebook account because it is chock a block with national secrets such as who took a **** in the urinal and that the missing bullet which killed JFK was actually an evil marshmallow hell bent on world domination

For me, the ones where someone says something to the effect of "in such a bd mood 2nite! x", which receives plenty of replies such as "hey u ok babe? x", only for the original person to say "ye dont wanna talk about it x"

Critical note: Everything must be followed by 'x'. Everything.
