Annoying social media phrases (for status updates etc.)

    What are examples of some really annoying phrases that people use on the likes of Facebook, usually in their status updates?

    Here are some of my least favourite, off the top of my head:


    [....] "Stay classy!"

    [....] "Good times!"

    [....] "Said no one ever!"

    [....] "There's [amount of time] of my life I'll never get back."

    [....] "Only [certain number] sleeps until [certain event]."

    [....] "Roll on [day]".


    What are some of yours?

    "It would be rude not to".....usually followed by something about drinking.

    No, it wouldn't be rude not to.

    Only in Ireland would we use a phrase like "only in Ireland".

    Anything to do with how drunk people say they were the night before. "Never so drunk in me life" "Never drinking again" or "I'm so hungover...please kill me now!!!". Gladly.

    Only thing worse is when they are talking about how drunk they are right now!

    American slang words that are overused on here :mad:
    Weird
    screwed
    sucks
    dude
    etc.

    WTF are Irish people acting like Americans for? Even more so when most Americans couldn't give a fiddlers fcuk about Ireland.

    What's wrong with 'weird'?

    Are we meant to use 'quare', or what

    It's what Americans say, in Ireland before the Yankee fever struck we used to say strange or unusual never weird.

    That, I didn't know. "Weird" must have been one of the first Americanisms to make it across the Atlantic!

    On the american theme, if I see the word 'multiple' one more time I'll fcuking....... grrrrrr!

    Awe dude it sucks you think that, kind of weird though, never knew they didn't like us, Obama getting stuck on the speed bump probably screwed our rep with them etc.

    This new "feeling blessed with ___" really grinds my gears for some reason


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 592 ✭✭✭Deer


    FML - usually accompanied by some drivel regarding a complete first world problem like their coffee is cold or their beer was warm or some nonsense.

    Frape (because some twat fiddling with your Facebook status is worth comparing to rape)

    Bants

    Anything really in text speak or accompanied by xxxxxxxx

    'Atari Jaguar'

    This one really gets up my wick.

    It's almost as if people thinks it's cool to let you know they don't care about the topic being discussed.

    If you don't care about the topic, don't post!!

    Also this thing of people acting like they don't know who a particular artist is for the same reason as above.

    Ok you don't like them/care about them, great, good for you. No need to act like a twat because of it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 274 ✭✭CPSW


    Hope ur ok hun xxxxx (although there is an excellent parody page on facebook called this, the person behind it got a book published of the stories of the girl they have created, they have it spot on!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,676 ✭✭✭elefant


    Putting FACT! at the end of sentences.

    Putting .com at the end of almost anything.

    I hate that so much. I would actually go so far as to say facebook should delete that persons account and block their IP and or MAC address as spam.

    In saying this I might be wrong but does it seem that people with no jobs put this up as their occupation instead of saying unemployed. I know 5 or 6 people with this status up and none of them have a job at all.

    Nobody thinks you're cool putting "full time mad bástárd" up as a job even the other absolute gobshítes that have it up aswel.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,089 ✭✭✭paulbok


    ^^^
    Banter, only trotted out for something unfunny/ uninteresting or an excuse for poor behavior, "so what if I p*$$ed in your shoe, it was only a bit of bantz"



    "Exciting times ahead....." hate that

    It doesn't matter. I'd go so far as to say if you never find out you life won't be left unfufilled as a result.

    And what's cheeky about a pint?

    They're sneaking away with it, guilt complex

    And THEN they post in on facebook to the whole world.

    Post modern irony don't you know?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,435 ✭✭✭Trebor176


    "Huns," also "hunz," "hun" or "hunzos. . ."havin de bantz wit my hunz. . ."(if you're female, obviously). "U ok hun?"

    "FML" for even the tiniest of mishaps (if you're female). Usually followed by the above question!

    "LMFAO" Chances are you haven't even raised a smile! Same for "PMSL" Chances are you'd have emptied your bladder if it was that full.

    "UGH!" Don't ask!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 407 ✭✭numbnutz


    meh...
    just **** off will you..if you don't like you don't even have to comment.. ok?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,155 ✭✭✭4Sticks

    So much wrong with that phrase (and every other one.) Is my heart with porn, alcohol and ice cream so? :mad:

    (maybe.)
