On a similar note, those who are constantly posting that recycled shit about the people in your life keeping you down and other various things about haterz. Like, who has that many people in their lives that are out for you?
On the topic of Facebook: The pyramid scheme-ers. "I'm SO lucky and SO fortunate to be able to do a job I love ALL THE WHILE being home with my beautiful children. I couldn't imagine missing these special moments with them."
Thanks. Thanks for shaming moms who have to work out of the home. You da best.
That stupid chain letter thing on facebook where someone posts a provocative statement and anyone who replies is "caught." My best friend posted on FB that she'd been fired yesterday and tons of people, knowing they're not in the best financial state, responded with how sorry they were, if there's anything they need, etc. (for me, I responded, but I felt bad because I hadn't realized she was working at all--she's not) Fortunately, she decided to "spare" me.
Attention whoring. A FB friend I love dearly posted that her and her bf broke up and she didn't want anyone to talk to her. People responded of course with stuff like *hugs* and "love you, I'm here if you need me" and her best friend is like "OMG PEOPLE STOP RESPONDING SHE SAYS SHE DOESN'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU." I get she's in a bad place but maybe don't fucking post that shit on FB until you're ready to talk about it.
Anyone who is lacking in common courtesy. I don't need anyone to hold doors for me, but if I'm RIGHT behind you and you let it go in my face, I'm going to think you're an asshole. I feel similarly about holding the door for someone or letting someone in front of me in traffic who doesn't say/wave thank you. Manners aren't hard.
I just got done deleting a few girls on Facebook who had that "MMHMMM I'm a bitch and if you don't like it you're just a HATER" attitude. You can identify them by their constant posting of passive-aggressive someecards and memes. I can't stand people who think it's cool or attractive to be an asshole like that.
I'm just honest and if people can't handle then they can fuck off.
Translated: I'm a heinous bitch with no filter and I need a way to explain why I have no friends.
The obviously fake sympathy pictures that are asking for "likes". Liking a post isn't going to make the cancer/disease/domestic violence go away. Only REAL action will.
It's been talked about many times before, but I hate all the "Tee hee post your bra color as your status for breast cancer awareness" BS that goes around mainly in Oct.

"If this photo gets 1 million likes, the dr will perform the life saving operation for FREE!!"
People posting things that are blatantly false and then not even caring about it. A friend of mine recently shared a Tea Party article about a misrepresented poll saying most Obama voters regret voting for him. I corrected her, and a delusional friend of hers and I went back and forth (he seemed to think math is just a matter of opinion) and all she talked about was the "good discussion." Really? You want to have a good discussion, fine, but don't lie.
I don't think that's a Kate Moss quote. My mom had a magnet with that phrase in the late 80's.
Seriously. That's been some bullshit thinspiration nonsense since heaven only knows when.
ETA: which leads me to the thing that drives ME nuts, which is misappropriated and/or totally invented quotes. I promise you, people, I PROMISE you, MLK, John Kennedy, Marilyn Monroe, Coco Chanel, and Jesus didn't say 1/16 of the shit people are slapping onto arty backgrounds and pinning on pinterest.
I think I might have a Boring McWindbag situation on my hands...
There's no need to update on the same (non) event 5 times! Also, ranting about how your extended family is awful and needs to "back up off you before you get ugly", yet ending the status about how you are going to be positive and not say anything/not let it bother you makes you sound unhinged. Plus a million other little things.
