    The "Prayers for Boston" posts have already started. I know it's probably well intentioned, but I find things like that utterly crass.

    Don't get the anti-tragedy messages like this, they're just as common as the ones you detail. You'll see several 'RIP's down the feed, then you'll get the one guy who's like "MYEH WHO CARES YOU DIDN'T ACTUALLY KNOW HIM AND HE CAN'T EVEN SEE YOUR RIP BECAUSE HE'S DEAD". Why do people give out when people talk about a huge talking point?

    Some young one has just posted a picture of the poor guy in the wheelchair with the horrific leg injuries, she says "he was running for chirty and lost both his legs, pray for boston"...it has 46,000 "likes"


    In my opinion I think that's bad taste

    That appears to be photoshopped. People just fishing for likes. Horribly distasteful all round.

    I know these are from twitter but they give you a peek into the world of the idiots' reaction to the Boston bombings:

  • Was there ever a big reveal to this gem ?

    Yeah, she bought a house. Not really such a surprise, as every status for about the last 3 months has been about buying a house.

    "Think we saw the perfect one today!"
    "Crushed - someone else has got the house - absolutely devastated!"
    "They wouldn't take our offer...absolutely crushed....was our dream home :("

    etc etc...

    I know, it's awful. First time I've ever seen/heard the term sand monkey. Am a bit shocked, tbh.

    Frapes just aren't funny anymore, if they ever were.

    In our thoughts Boston! This is so surreal.... sickening to think people would kill innocent children for.. what exactly!! This world makes me sick and some of the people in it should be killed themselves..... Selfish and immoral behaviour!
    Especially that the bomber made a Facebook page in commemoration to the bomb victims..... 2days before the actual bomb was set to go off..... SICK WORLD!!!

    In reference to to this page being set up at some point over the weekend. It's quite easy to rename a Facebook page, ya feckin' eejit...

    The thing about an event like the Boston bombings is the amount of crap you have to read about it from people. I don't mean the 'My thoughts are with the victims' posts. It's a big news event and people are probably naturally going to comment on it. Its people sharing pictures with captions like 'This brave 8 year old boy was running in memory of the Sandy Hook victims and was killed. Share = respect' How hard is it for someone to use Google to verify if this story is bullsh¡t (which it completely is) before sharing it? And who the fück makes up this sh¡t in the first place?

    Also, the other posters that boil my piss are the '55 people killed in Iraq. Just saying…' posts in an attempt to show how much more clued in they are. The fact of the matter is before they heard about the Boston bombings they didn't care one bit about the death toll in Iraq or the Afghan wedding massacre but now they can infer how callous and racist their friends are because they commented on the deaths of people at the Boston marathon and not the deaths in Iraq or Afghanistan.

    Well, if she planned her day out properly like a man instead of leaving everything until the last minute she would have been able to go straight up to bed.

    Both of these posts made my day! Thank you masked stranger!

    Yes. Just yes to everything you just said.

    One of my FB "friends" posted that fake picture of the little girl "who died running the marathon", and talked about how sad it was.

    (In the picture the girl is CLEARLY wearing a number from a 5k race with the name of the race on it.)

    Less than two minutes later she shared the post explaining that the little girl had nothing to do with the marathon.

    *bangs head against wall*

    I have finally broken free of Facebook :D I couldn't put up with looking at any more "share this and win" posts, it's what finally put me over the edge!

    I have exactly 100 friends and see status updates from about 30 of them, the rest is stuff like sites that are easier to see facebook feeds than check the sites a few times a day, pure laziness :pac:

    I've 77 after I deleted the people I don't like or see regularly...and I kept family!

    I don't even like Facebook, don't know why I'm on it.

    Pah, I have hundreds of friends. Maybe i'll delete some of the ones I don't actually know and put up a status informing those I haven't deleted. It's never been done before but I think it might really catch on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 677 ✭✭✭CarMe

    Delete your account then. Life is better without it! :)

    I have friends that are abroad but I keep in touch via viber etc - which is more for actual friends. I've no time for the Facebook kind.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 677 ✭✭✭CarMe


    I always knew she was along the lines of "hope your ok hun" and the entertainment value kept her on my friends list but I'm absolutely horrified!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,273 ✭✭✭EuskalHerria


    I hope you deleted her

    I hope her parents were sterilised after their obvious first mistake.




  • This is from a girl I worked with in Canada. She is the biggest gom and most delusional person I've ever met. Her Facebook posts keep me entertained!

    'Wooo deleting spree is turning out to be quite fun! 100 people gone so far! You should really look into your settings and stuff! It's amazing what you can & cannot control on here! Major clean up of my social networking all round.

    Just watched something on tv about Facebook and it was a bit of an eye opener! So I'm going to keep chopping away!! Got a couple of messages so far haha, sorry guys if you don't talk to me how the hell am I supposed to know you read the crap I post on here? You're all essentially stalkers if you're not friends! hahaha'

    How can anyone be that arrogant? As if she thinks everyone is just hanging on to her every word. I'm sure most of her 'stalkers' feel the same way about her - she's a random acquaintance like most Facebook 'friends' are.
