irrational annoyance: people who do the "@" and

hashtag stuff ON FACEBOOK.

listen, assholes, i don't even understand twitter, but i know that it's not the same as facebook.  pick ONE form of social networking at a time.  keep your tweets out of my facebook feed and i'll keep my facebook posts out of your tweets.

mmmmkay?

I feel like people do it to look cool and appear to be "in the know."

Or maybe I'm projecting because I don't understand twitter either.

No, I'm pretty sure it's pointless on Facebook. It serves a purpose on Twitter but is just lame in FB. I'm old and ignorant though; if some hipster type wants to correct me I'm happy to hear it.

It annoys the tar out of me too, actually. I unfollow people on Facebook who use hashtags.

I hate text speak and I hate it even more when my 34 year old friend does it. Can't wait 2 C U! ugh

i just learned how to tag someone in a post here when i tagged pants by mistake! ha. (you put the @ right before their name).

[TrickyBob]

I don't mind the people who I know have their Facebook pages linked with Twitter (so every time they update on Twitter, it shows on Facebook) but there is a little symbol that lets you know they have both.



It's the people who use willynilly that bother me. It irks me even more when people actually SAY "hashtag" in real life. Saying "lol" in real life isn't acceptable and neither is "hashtag"

if that is true, and i don't doubt that it is, my annoyance is not lessened because i'm just LIKE THAT.  they're still all jerks!

Tell me more about using hash tag verbally. How does that work?

I only do the hashtag if it adds comedic factor. Which is like once ever.

They will actually say "hashtag that wasn't funny". They just add the word hashtag in front of whatever they say. It's annoying.

Oh dear. I think I would need new friends. That's obnoxious.

[ginger]

HOLD THE PHONE!

People are actually saying "hashtag" in conversations?

That's equally as dumb as people saying OH EM GEE!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


/ginger weeps for humanity.

ETA: aww.....the /me CSS thingy doesn't work anymore.

eta: you know what bothers me the most? people who have 20 hashtags on their instagram photos. Just stop!

[Deleted]

No way people are like " hash tag i sound like a tool". No way. Right?

[lightyears]

Maybe I'm old fashioned but I still refer to the "hashtag" symbol as "the pound sign." Lol

[Deleted]

This drives me bonkers. I have a facebook friend who does this constantly.
In fact, to quote one of the billion pictures of herself she posted this weekend:
"#me #red #redhair #manicpanic #vampirered #girlswithtattoos #glasses #oregon #tattoos #piercings"


O.O

The number key. lol.

I believe some social networking platforms allow you to post things simultaneously to both your twitter and fb feeds, so that may be why people seem to use the twitter functions on facebook.

This. It's not that these people are typing "#xyz" on their facebook page, they just have their twitter linked with their facebook automatically. It doesn't bother me #twitterwhore #quithating

clearly, we've never met.  i never quit hating.

[lightyears]

I do use them on Instagram. hmm.

[Deleted]

I've never hastagged in my life, and I probably never will. I don't think I'm cool enough.

1 funny hashtag is okay. A bunch? ruins the picture. 

To me it's a complete AW thing to do. Because isn't that why people used them to begin with? So stuff would start "trending" and people would see their stuff? 20 hashtags means you're desperate lol 

[fuckyourcouch]

I use them on Instagram.
