  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    6.59 posts per day is maybe 20 minutes per day on boards.ie posting. Not a hard feat if you have access to the internet at work.

    I prefer to use facebook for stalking people I havent seen in a long time. Its satisfying to see girls I used to fancy turn into complete muck savages. Feels like I got away with something :D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 765 ✭✭✭Ticktactoe


    Ive never done it. Think im gonna start now :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    So what if their status is 'clinically depressed' or 'highly contagious', would they still 'like' it then?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept


    Saw a status message the other day where someone was talking about how their mother was dying, lots of comments and one thanks.
    Seemed kind of wrong, I think I know what they meant though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,454 ✭✭✭mink_man


    i say physically sick if it does make me physcally sick..but because of someone liking their own status?......sad sad person who gets physically sick over that

    I've noticed some people liking their own status and its really stupid and a bit pathetic. What I suggest is to get back at them by posting status updates like "I hope I dont have AIDS" or "someone smells like shit today" and tag the people who are liking their own posts. Keep doing this on an hourly basis, regardless of how angry these people get

    I always find it funny to read people on forums complain about facebook. Pot, thou share a likeness with kettle.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,252 ✭✭✭✭stovelid


    Endlessly carping about the Facebook statuses of people that you accepted or requested as friends is like smearing your walls with shit and then complaining to everybody about the smell.

    Another thing is there usually the kinda people who post about 10 status updates in a row who do this :rolleyes:. I just hide all posts from that person when it happens, but yeah, idiots with nothing better to be doing :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    You hate it, do you: do you really?
    Common definition of hate: (a) intense hostility and aversion usually deriving from fear, anger, or sense of injury, (b) extreme dislike or antipathy.
    Do you literally hate when people do this? If so, you need to lighten up.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 72 ✭✭ninwilky


    There's something wrong when a line saying whoever likes their own post upsets you enough to go to another social networking site and broadcast your disliking of a sentence.... since thats all that changes when someone "likes" their own post.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,094 ✭✭✭jd007

    I think I might be able to help you. Don't click on the thread when it's obviously about facebook.
