    Lol, what was she trying to say?? Unreal?

    Yeah I'd say so. I had a look at some of their friends pages and 'unhuman' seems to be the new 'unreal'. In fairness some of the selfies of the orange faced, big eyebrowed and pouty lipped girls did seem a bit unhuman alright.
    I felt a bit bad looking at the pages of people I don't know but if you don't set your privacy settings and have Barbie or princess as your first name...I'm going to look.☺

    This might come across a bit harsh, there is a concert on tonight in the 3 arena that's for charity, girl I know checked into it on Facebook with the following "doing our bit for charity". Considering people stand out in the pissing rain or run marathons or in my case go on 200km cycles for charity it just kinda pissed me off.

    To be fair I am pretty sure you do 200Km cycles because you like cycling , Your friend likes concerts , if you can both do what you like and some money goes to charity then what is the difference.

    And also many people who stand out in the rain are doing it becasue it is their job ,what they are paid to do.

    The best part about these check ins is that 864 people have checked in to her "lovely cost bed" previously.

    Duuurty.

    Someone shared a FB competition, everything was fine in the competition details except they kept using the word "filt". As in, "win a box filt with products".

    Just seen someone type "ju" in place of "did you" ...

    People living in glass houses and all that.

    On a unrelated note - acquaintance of mine has taken a break from his usual republican diatribes and Bob Marley quotes and gone for the faux-profound instead.

    'im changin my profile pic to the syrian flag 2 support all the dead syrian kids this year'

    I've decided not to let him know that he's actually managed to post a Palestinian flag.

    Please call him out on this. The fcuking tripe that people post on social media is increasing constantly. It's about time stupidity is shown for what it is and the dopes are shown up.

    Newspeak is intentionally pushed by the totalitarian state in order to subjugate the people. In idiocracy and indeed here in this example,the dumbing down is willingly engaged in by the people to their own slow detriment and for the benefit of nobody. So I think you're a bit off base here.
    Oh,plus, in my opinion, true irony is always unintended (even though that definition has begun to change recently)

    While I'm not a fan of her "writing style", I do agree with the sentiment. I'd happily knock the sh1t out of any kids that were acting the fcuk with old people like that.

    "GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!! This year December has 5 Mondays, 5 Saturdays, and 5 Sundays. This Happens once every 823 years. This is called money bags. So share it and money will arrive within 4 days. Based on Chinese Feng Shui. The one who does not share, will be without money. Share within 11 minutes of reading. Can't hurt so I did it. JUST FOR FUN."

    (Technically, I did "share" within 10 mins of reading - I posted it on here..... Wonder if I'll be a lucky recipient?!?)

    Must be an old post. The last time it happened was in 2012, the next time it will happen is in 2018.

    Then again, the Gregorian calendar is on a 400 year cycle, so depending when you start counting your 400 year cycle, it happens somewhere between once every 6.9 and 7.15 years, so I suppose it's not the least accurate part of the post.

    Hope that helps.

    Not that I doubt the power of Feng Shui or anything.

    Yeah, you'd see this 4-5 times a year. Unless I live in a world where 823 years for me is 4 Earth months and I'm some eternal life godlike creature..

    The calendar fallacy. I'm sure I posted here last year, under a different name admittedly, about seeing the same woman share that exact thing twice in five weeks. -.-

    I'd be tempted to ask her what terrible hedonistic disaster happened in the months before the tsunami that wiped out hundreds of thousands of people.

    A distant relative just shared a 'Share if you love your kids' message, and her partner responded;
    Why do you keep putting these bull**** posts up?! The kids know they're loved. This is the one thing I hate about facebook, all these ****ty little pictures about sharing if you love your kids!!!!!

    Sure isn't that what FB is all about, if it's not congratulating yourself its seeking attention or a hybrid of both.

    I've just seen someone being corrected for not putting an accent è over the name of someone else's baby.

    People be cray cray.

    Used to know someone who freaked out if you had a pet name for her kid. Beth for Bethanie etc.

    "Her name is Bethanie not Beth!!"

    Her name will be "shut the **** up and sit in the corner" this weekend if you expect me to take care of your damn kid so you can have a break.

    I'm sorry there is a need to post this but sadly we live in harrowing times please read.
    important message from Crime Stoppers, please read this report,
    While driving on a rural end of the roadway on Thursday morning, I saw an infant car seat on the side of the road with a blanket draped over it. For whatever reason, I did not stop, even though I had all kinds of thoughts running through my head. But when I got to my destination, I called the Police and they were going to check it out. But, this is what the Police advised even before they went out there to check..."There are several things to be aware of ... Gangs and thieves mostly from Eastern Europe are now plotting different ways to get a person (mostly women)to stop their vehicle and get out of the car.
    "There is a gang initiation reported by the local Police where gangs are placing a car seat by the road...with a fake baby in it...waiting for a woman, of course, to stop and check on the abandoned baby. "Note that the location of this car seat is usually beside a wooded or grassy (field) area and the person -- woman -- will be dragged into the woods, beaten and raped, and usually left for dead. If it's a man, they're usually beaten and robbed and maybe left for dead, too.
    DO NOT STOP FOR ANY REASON!!! DIAL 9-9-9 AND REPORT WHAT YOU SAW, BUT DON'T EVEN SLOW DOWN.
    "IF YOU ARE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND EGGS ARE THROWN AT YOUR WINDSCREEN, DO NOT STOP TO CHECK THE CAR, DO NOT OPERATE THE WIPER AND DO NOT SPRAY ANY WATER BECAUSE EGGS MIXED WITH WATER BECOME MILKY AND BLOCK YOUR VISION UP TO 92.5%, AND YOU ARE THEN FORCED TO STOP BESIDE THE ROAD AND BECOME A VICTIM OF THESE CRIMINALS.
    THIS IS A NEW TECHNIQUE USED BY GANGS, SO PLEASE INFORM YOUR FRIENDS AND RELATIVES. THESE ARE DESPERATE TIMES AND THESE ARE UNSAVOURY INDIVIDUALS WHO WILL TAKE DESPERATE MEASURES TO GET WHAT THEY WANT."
    Please talk to your loved ones about this. This is a new tactic used. Please be safe.
    Get started NOW -- SEND THIS MESSAGE TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES TO BE CAREFUL AND AWARE OF EVERYTHING AROUND THEM SO AS NOT TO BECOME A VICTIM.
