    Maybe and I do feel like a bit of a cynic even thinking that way but it seems like one feed at least anyways many of my friends can't do ANYTHING without it being on FB. Total overshare.

    It's tragic to think though that people could miss out on another facet of such a wonderfully interesting and deep personality.

    *posts a photo with several inches of make up and so photoshopped, she's blurry*

    "u luk stunin hun! "
    "How do u luk so gud???!"

    Followed by about 200 likes. I mean these people know her in real life and know she doesn't look anything like the photo, even if they didn't notice the blatant dodgy photoshop job... people boggle my mind at times

    Several girls (and it's always girls, isn't it?!) have clogged up my timeline with their Darkness Into Light posts, showing pictures of themselves posing beside trees and sticking their tongues out for the camera.
    Yes, it's a good thing you've done, but my God aren't you just craving attention?

    "Pints tonight girlos we deserve them after that trek!!!!"
    "tell me about it i shouldnt of worn a bra to be honest it was digin in something cronic few voddies be grand"

    Damn those girls, enjoying themselves while raising money for charity.


    I'm not sure that you get the 'social' bit of social media.

    I kind of agree to an extent in terms of social media being used as means of raising awareness of an illness. Putting up photos and info around the Darkness Into Light walk can surely only be a good thing regarding awareness being increased and the available services of the related charity being promoted, no?

    Someone posted saying they're selling runners, two for €60.

    First comment...is it 2 pairs for 60 or just 2 shoes?

    A girl on my newsfeed posts about 3 selfies a day, in each, zoomed in, up close, head-and-shoulders picture she manages to have :

    1. Her hair over one shoulder.
    2. The other shoulder bare (top pulled down)
    3. At least one boob

    All squeezed into the picture somehow. I mean really picture how unnatural that position is. Always tagged with #shamelessselfie or #nofilter or #hereigoagain. It's effectively the same picture, everyday, several times! I JUST DON'T GET IT.

    She's working on it, and when she gets the perfect one she's going to set the world alight, the world of Shoulder/Boob will never be the same

    All I can say is.... the dumber everyone else is, the smarter *I* am by comparison. So I'm delighted about all these Facebook dopes.

    I didn't say I'm smart, though. I said I'm smart "in comparison to dumb Facebook dopes." Quite the difference!

    There's an abundance of hyperlinks to detail the terminology. It's hardly difficult reading.

    Happy now?

    Oh. It must have been my total lack of interest then.

    And it's "there're" not "there's."

    It was a different form of English. Just don't attempt Chaucer and you'll be fine.
    I know you're joking btw.
