    I'd love to know too.

    Maybe it's to protect whatever gobsh1te who started it from getting reported for spam?

    That bloody dog!!!!
    For all close to me and many, many more sadly this is very poignant, and will forever be in our minds and hearts. In support of everyone I know who wrestled with the black dog....Yes depression is relentless. A lot of us have been close to that edge, and some have lost friends and loved ones. Let's look out for each other and stop sweeping mental illness under the rug.
    If I don't see your name, I'll understand.
    May I ask my family and friends wherever you might be, to kindly copy and paste this status for one hour to give a moment of support to all those who have family problems, health struggles, job issues, worries of any kind and just need to know that someone cares. Do it for all of us, for nobody is immune. Hope to see this on the walls of my family and friends just for moral support. I know some will!!! I did it for someone close to me and you can too. You have to copy and paste this one, no Sharing! (Hold screen to copy)

    Copy and paste to show support for anyone who has any worries at all... because it's so rare to have worries right? Fcuk sake.

    Almost always guaranteed to generate a small ICT support thread in comments below too.

    "Wats de 'Hold Screen'?"
    "I kant get de coping working neither"
    "U need 2 hold down the mouse hun"
    "Wen holding de screen?"
    "I'll PM ya hun"

    Utter cringe. You know you could also have a moment by spending time with your daughter other than fishing for likes.

    A girl I used to work with put this up with a picture her and her daughter dressed in the exact same outfit! I cringed hard.

    A lad I know changed his profile picture 7 times yesterday.

    Saying that it is once or twice most days. I've had the same one for years


  • Registered Users Posts: 203 ✭✭Neil Issagum


    This 'tat' business drives me mad. Tat instead of That. I can understand people writing Dis instead of this or Dat instead of That because that's how it sounds when they say it, but 'tat'!? No one in any county on this island pronounces 'that' as 'tat' in their accent

    I have a 50 year old man in my FB friend list who likes expensive smartphones but must have "Tat" pre programmed into his Google Keyboard or something....

    He generally always has better phones than me and in all the years we are friends he still can does not bother spelling "that" correctly...

    I think it's a leftover trait from the Nokia lazy texting days....

    "12 mths of da cigs 2day."

    To me, that reads like she took up smoking a year ago and is proud of it! :D

    My Dad is always doing this and I've tried explaining to him how irritating that is for people on his timeline but he doesn't get it.
    He also puts up pics of his holidays which he ALREADY put up before.

    He also puts those quotes and poems up.
    I wish he wasn't on FB or that the novelty would have worn off by now.

    unfollow him; he won't know, his posts just won't appear in your timeline any more.

    I know a guy who does this too, it's not 7 times a day but it probably goes from every second day to twice a day some times.
    If it's not his profile pic that's changing its his cover.

    I'd say he probably has some confidence issues, but the pics he chooses aren't always the most, eh, flattering anyway so I don't know.

    Amazing!

    I'm normally pretty good at translating gibberish but that really had me stumped.

    They didn't really die. Think that's the bit that had me confused.

    I have pretty much unfollowed everyone on Facebook. My feed just has the few pages I like to follow and a few friends who don't post sh*t all the time. Unfollowing is a great option for someone who you are friends with but can't stand the sh*t they put on facebook.

    Change the settings on his account when he isn't paying attention.

    Set all of his updates to "only me".

    I doubt he'll even notice.

    While that's a great suggestion, a lot of folk, especially those around our parents age are actually mad for "likes", in the sense they don't want to go viral but they do definitely track how popular a picture is and so on.

    It could end up as comedy gold for this thread, they won't know no one else can't see it and will be fighting with 'aunty mary', 'cousin billy' cause they aren't liking their photos :D

    Ha ha that's a great shout. Or they'll start vague booking about not getting acknowledged only to have their anger compounded when they don't see the usual "U Ok hun?" replies!

    The "U Ok hun?" replies are a solid symbol of our intelligence as a species, please don't mock...

    I had to re-read a girls status due to her using "anal" as a substitute of "and all". Throughout the entire thing I thought it was a tad bit odd for her to keep mentioning butt sex.
