You continue to send me requests for candy crush, despite the fact that I made it abundantly clear that I don't play the stupid game!

I am contemplating signing up for FB for 2 reasons 1. try to reconnect with my best friend. She's not returning my calls and I'm not even sure I've got the correct phone number. I miss her. If it's done, I'll move on but I'd like confirmation of that which doesn't involve me stalking her house to find out when she's home. 2. can be friends with DH on the Township game (sort of like Farmville, I think) since there is a spot for helping FB friends churn out produce and products. 3. (I can't count) a lot of my extended family is on FB and I'd be able to keep tabs on them. 4. You can be friends with me! Me too! I have one friend as descibed in #8 almost exactly like Firebird Descibed. I don't delte her and I refuse to make fun of her b/c I think she has a really hard life (lives with sister who is mentally ill and her DD was born with severe issues and was ADD and BiPolar). eta. I think said person is panhandling and posting all this crap so people will feel sorry for her. Someone told me she has gotten some sizable grocery GC's - she may very well be deserving so I don't judge...just am personally wary not to feel so bad for her I make a donation,. The rest are people I knew in HS and Family Members sharing picks of their kids and grandkids. DD said she told a teacher at school the other day that it is impossible to keep a secret in our extended family. It was like this before FB, but now it is even worse. It's amazing considering only about 1/2 the family is on FB - I guess the rest are in touch with someone in the family somehow.

You know you are a royal douchebag when you share the nude photo of Kim Kardashian and say "I would hit that!"
Yes, I hit the delete button.
I also don't like it when people post all their Jerry Springer drama. I seriously had an old HS friend post "Well, he left me you stupid bitch. I hope you are happy and that he gives you a disease!" DELETE!!!!
One of my ex-boyfriends college and his wife used to constantly post about how in love they were. She would post on his FB "Honey, you have been in the garage too long, come in the house, I am in the mood!" Then all of a sudden he was gone off FB. When he came back, he was divorced. I felt bad for him, but it really made me think that most people that constantly post about how in love they are, really aren't as happy as they pretend. I will admit for awhile I thought something was wrong with my marriage because we aren't all mushy with each other on FB.

Step A - Complain about how awful TriCare is and how the government needs to replace it. Step B - Complain that the government is replacing your TriCare (these posts were about 2 weeks apart)
OR
Step A - Post about how the government is stealing the money of hard working people to pay for social services- things like healthcare and food stamps, and claim that if one more "law" about social services passes, you're leaving the country Step B - When asked where you'd go, respond Canada or England, because you need somewhere they speak English

I NEVER repost the "If you have a great spouse/mother/father/son/daughter/sibling/niece/nephew/random homeless person in your life repost this" things.
On our anniversary, on his birthday, I will post something kind of mushy to C, but not super mushy because we're not super mushy people.

My biggest pet peeves are people that are constantly posting religious or political things. And why in the hell does FB give you the option of hiding posts from certain people or sites if it's not going to work? Is it just something to make you feel better for being able to click to hide it but then still show posts from those sites?

I haven't had one pop up that I've hidden. Like any and all candy crush games.

Oh yeah - I have a serious problem with people who repost horribly graphic, triggering images of abused animals/women/children to "raise awareness."
It's very important to talk about issues but not everyone can handle seeing photos and it's really awful to inflict them on people before they have a chance to hit "I don't want to see this," thus ensuring that the images stay whether they can handle them or not.

Monday - Post how you have the best husband in the world and what a great father he is.
Wednesday - Post that your a-hole husband punched you in the face and broke your nose.
True story.

BTW the game one seem to work because I don't get those again but one for particular websites don't.

I don't delete these Facebook friends. They are entertaining. It makes me grateful for the life I have. One time I posted one of those signs that said "I don't know if you are trying to convince me or yourself how wonderful your life is." The main culprits "liked" my posting. Duh! Get a clue.

You keep posting "Real Men do this" or "Real women are thick" memes.
You post pseudoscience articles. .. constantly
Every post involves Obama being to blame for something. It's like a weird Six Degrees of Separation from Kevin Bacon game.

My name is oped. I'm a FB d-bag. I like to post funny conversation tidbits and occasionally pictures of my food... You can still be my FB friend if you want to...

You post anything that says "and if you don't repost this you don't love Jesus/you have no heart/you're a chickenshit"

No - you're only quoting John Wayne in the movie Big Jake. He's a hardbitten rancher who's grandson is kidnapped and his estranged wife sends for him to come and retrieve the kid back. People keep asking "who are you" "I'm Jacob McCandles." "Sorry Sir, I thought you was dead" is done in some variation 3-5 times in the movie.

Yeah, but since it's my aunt and a lot of my Facebook friends are family, it would come off as pretty cold. I'm sure it's one of her kids. Knowing her, she may have even requested they do it. It is kind of nice to see a comment from her even if I know it's not really her. It's all stuff she would have said anyways.

I don't have a FB and I'm perfectly content. On the flip side of that, I am always the last to know things.

andi9899 - I have a friend who created a page for each of her 4 cats. Yes, that's 4 additional pages, 1 per cat. However, she did it to have "friends" in the games she plays so that she can log into those accounts and click on whatever needs clicking to advance levels etc, without bothering her real life friends with games.
