I think I will boycott FB until mid-Nov....

Seriously.  I just logged on and scrolled through the news feed for the first time in a month.  I have to say, I didn't miss anything.  Especially all the political posts.  And political posts on both sides.  Blah.  

I have a feeling that FB is just going to get worse from here on out until November.  

Ugh.  I can't wait until people go back to posting what they ate for lunch and why they hate their ex-husband.

Re: I think I will boycott FB until mid-Nov....

  • Do you want to know what I had for lunch?
    I agree. Super annoying.
    I'm sure you don't have this problem down there, but I can't stand when every post is about how cold it is & whether or not it's snowing & how much they got.

  • I am not looking forward to this! So far it hasn't been too bad for me yet. I'm sure it will get worse as the year goes on. :(

  • What gets my goat are people who post a minute-by-minute recap on FB via their status of debates, SOTU, football games, etc.  If I wanted to watch, I would.  

    Also those who fail to do their own research, but sure asfuck want to repost every bit of misinformation they find on pinterest and the internet.  Have an opinion, but FFS be educated about it.

  • I have one friend that never posts on FB and he has updating about politics a billion times a day for the past month. Definitely annoying.

    I totally feel you!

  • That would be annoying.  Luckily, most of my friends post about politics about as much as I do, which would equate to maybe 5 posts in an entire year (mine are mostly education related obviously).  I have been deleting people more and more lately because I just don't need to see any posts from people who I don't have regular or at least infrequent contact with.
  • For the most part, I just don't understand why people even post status updates. It's usually just to brag about things. I barely ever update mine but I did 2 within the past few months and both were to brag- one about my new car and one about working out-- lol. So I'm guilty too, but I barely ever do them.

    I just think it's sad that FB has enabled many people to become annoying braggers. Or, it's enabled them to force their views on hundreds of people who would have never have had the displeasure of hearing them pre-FB. FB has made people so narcissistic in general!

    Sorry, end vent.

    I agree! I try to post when Im really excited but I can see it  coming off as braggy so i'm guilty of it too!

  • Haha!!  Lunch and ex-husbands :)

  • Kathy,

    Can I just say that my blood is boiling right now bc of FB? Ugh. So, my best friend put up this status about how she isn't going to be ignored anymore by "friends". Want to know why she is writing that crap? Bc I cancelled my bowling plans with her when I was in FL. Want to know why I cancelled? Bc I read my Dad's suicide note for the first time. I think I am going to hide some more people! HA. OMG.. so mad right now. 

    Anyways, yeah, if I were you, I'd stay away! lol. Unless you are posting more of your photography. You are good, girl! :)
