    Posted with a selfie of her and her mate. I mean, c'mon, if you're gonna use that many words why not just write a sentence? Fúckin hashtags.

    Was it posted to instagram? AFAIK instagram uses the same '#' tagging system, similar to twittface.

    FB uses hashtags as well, linked to twitter

    It was Facebook. She posted another today, not a selfie, a pic of an icecream on the beach

    "Happy Tuesday ☀️.
    #sunny #sunshine #dublin #ireland #icecream #lovely #weather #finally #summer #ishere"

    WHY THE HASHTAGS? I really don't get it. Just write a sentence!

    Not a status but some guy on my newsfeed put up a link to a video of some poor unfortunate lad with half his face blown off.. Very distressing.

    I googled it for context and it apparently originates from the trouble in Syria.. the guy is conscious and missing his entire lower jaw.

    I'm still feeling sick from it.

    Why do people share stuff like this.. yes the world is messed up and wars happen but there are kids on Facebook.. they do not need to see these horrors.

    It's also Cant for woman.

    Girl on my newsfeed is always doing the hastag thing and it is so irritating.
    She also puts up selfies every day.

    She is gorgeous but my God she knows it.
    She has a little boy and she calls him her "sonshine" and the latest photo was of her posing with him in the sun.

    "#summer, #icecream, #sonshine, #lovinglife, #posers. #sowhat, #whocares, #bray, #picnic, #bliss"
    She hashtags everything she says.

    Last week it was: "#dinner #parentshouse #roast #loveit #stuffed".

    The way those people use hashtags without really understanding what they are for reminds me of Joey from friends trying to use the hand movement for inverted commas.

    Never mind the kids - this adult does not need to see these horrors (I'd actually call them obscenities) to know that the world is messed up and wars happen. Some of them are faked too, which means less credibility to whatever petition/awareness/plea they are meant to advance, and even worse, a desensitisation to gruesome violence.

    Speaking of hash tags, came across this on my news feed earlier.

    Sounds like someone I know, she isn't a buxom blonde by any chance?

    Apologies.

    I get now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Could those hashtags be linked to instagram and as a result it posts to facebook at the same time?


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,982 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    A pal of mine of Spanish extraction posted

    "Please don't say anything"

    following the final whistle of the Spain-Chile match.

    I guarantee she's sitting there biting her nails waiting on sympathetic "awww, hun" replies.

    There are none so far :D

    A :pac: would be proper order.

    In fairness, Chile is of Spanish extraction as well so she should be happy enough.

    So recently I freed myself from the shackles of Facebook. I permanently deleted my account (not deactivated, if your going to do something, do it right) and I've been enjoying my social media free life since.

    I mean honestly what's the point of it? I don't feel the need to share every aspect of my life with the world, I had around a thousand friends (990 of which I don't even properly know)

    I honestly could give less of a ****e if Mary is sick and John is happy. It's nothing but a tool for narcissistic droolies to take 'selfies' of themselves and look for attention.

    Sure, it was great when I was 15 and acting the nob on it, but it's nothing but a marketing tool and i'm not falling for the gimmick anymore.

    Rant over :P anyone feel the same way?
