    My cousin does this. He moans about how fucked up his life is and how much he misses his boyfriend.

    Does anyone else have someone who likes absolutely they post, yet, doesn't have a clue what their post is actually about?

    The ones who post the images of words and sayings about relationships to try and prove how they good and loyal they are and that no one else ever understands their relationship woes. And that bloody page called 'real boyfriends treat their girls like princesses' or something, ugh puke!!!!

    Thing like this:

    https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn2/q71/1044887_520614284671814_1007879578_n.jpg

    And why do these images always include gritty pictures of urban areas or chavs in the backgrounds? Just because these people might live there doesnt mean they have to prove their relationship worth to anybody

    The repeated statuses, 5 a day. And ones who make pointed comments like 'it would have been nice for you to invite me out' then the sort of awkwardness statuses

    I'm sure she is but all of the videos seem to be top ten reasons for X, where X is a topic that has been absolutely run into the ground.

    I am probably being grossly unfair though. And maybe a bit envious because I'm not attractive enough to do videos on youtube :p

    I personally have no problem with face book at all, and don't think it is a problem in anyway. The content is the problem. It's the same content that would otherwise have been apparent on any other media. Though the nice lady in the video does have a point :)

    She does have good points but actually found both of them a bit annoying and OTT

    Oh just thought of one! Dont know about anyone else but i have a constant barage of clearly insecure people saying various versions of 'I am what I am, if you dont like it fuck off, I dont live to please you'. Yea im insecure too but not so much i feel the need to pretend otherwise all the time

    Yep i get this. The ones who claim they are going to make huge changes to their life and 3 days later are all depressed again are the same.

    By all means have mood swings. I don't need to know about them.

    people who tag themselves at the a&e department of the local hospital with no explanation as to why...couldn't be more attention seeking

    A relative of mine does this. My dad thinks he's a hypochondriac.

    People who always tag themselves to say where they are. Do I really need to know that you're in bed? On that note, people who post about their sex life. Not something I really want to read, thanks.

    You can add a life event of "over came an illness" you should definitely let everyone know your cold is gone now, I'm sure they'll be relieved. ;)

    What I find really annoying is all the teen mums in my year who got pregnant at 14/15 posting stuff like "My baby wont go to sleep for fuck sake" or "So fucking bored with life" or "why does my baby wake up every hour? JUST SLEEP" ... ummmmm what did you expect?!

    I got 45 seconds in before I had to turn it off. The presenter is 150% over my Amateur Dramatics tolerance threshold.

    #10 doesn't make sense. You've always been able to block somebody.

    I think this is dependent on your friends list and is different from person to person. I very rarely see arguments on facebook, people are probably too busy trying to reflect their perfect life. I see more arguments/disagreements on Twitter, where (in my experience) people are more open, or on forums like thesite.org, where people from different walks of life meet and have differing opinions and there's nothing wrong with that. Fact of life is that you're not going to agree with what everyone says all the time, arguments are a part of human nature. Some people have them in public or on media settings, others have them behind closed doors. I'm fairly sure the arguments that happen on Facebook, at least the few I've seen, would happen in real life anyway, just for various reasons, people have them via a keyboard instead.

    I can't say I've seen that many arguments. Apart from when a relative swore at a friend of mine for daring to voice a different opinion. :rolleyes:

    Facebook is just a platform. If people are unpleasant irl then they'll be unpleasant on Facebook.
