annoying social networking stuff

after looking at my Facebook newsfeed today a thought entered my head

'people who make statuses on Facebook and then 'Like' their own statuses should be dragged outside, thrown into a windowless van, driven into a desert and shot in the mouth'

it is one of the worst most masturbatory things you can do on a service that is designed to be masturbatory

but there's so much more!

so tell me, SE++, what idiotic social networking stuff have you seen that drives you into homicidal rages

also you guys should check out the SE++ Facebook group

if you're into that sort of thing

    I have Facebook. Everyone should be my friend and befriend my blog which also has it's own Facebook.

    Like I don't even know how I tricked myself into a twitter account, but it is a window into a world I despise

    twitter has its uses if you're into hearing what your favourite celebrities are up to day to day

    I open my google+ about once a week or so then I pretty much close it within seconds.

    I'm on Facebook way more then is healthy.

    I have a twitter as well. I go on spurts with Twitter.

  • YaYaYaYa Decent. Registered User regular
    my twitter is rad

    it is the only social networking I do

    TLB I am pretty sure if I still looked at Twitter with any regularity I would follow you so hard

    you would feel a physical impact when I clicked the follow button

    I mostly just IM or email people that I want to stay in contact with.

    I understand that may not suit those with big beautiful lives.

    The biggest benefit to twitter is the iron shiek

    This is the truth.

  • dbrock270dbrock270 Registered User regular
    I don't understand why someone would like their Facebook status. I mean, if you posted this wouldn't that mean you already approve of its content?

  • Raijin QuickfootRaijin Quickfoot I'm your Huckleberry YOU'RE NO DAISYRegistered User, ClubPA regular
    I pretty much never use the like button.

  • SwillSwill Registered User regular
    I hate Facebook

    I always read profiles of people I dislike then get angry

    Or I will look up past lovers and be filled with immense self loathing.

    I disabled my account. And old coworker posted a picture of kanye 69ing himself, then I looked up my most recent ex, and just flipped the fuck out.

    So yeah. No facebook

    I just keep Facebook open in a tab in case anyone wants to get in touch with me.

  • lostwordslostwords Registered User regular
    i get caught up with random social networking sites for a few weeks, then promptly forget about them. twitter, goodreads, pinterest, ravelry, its all periods of mild obsession then crap what is my login name again? facebook is useful for remembering birthdays and thats pretty much it for me

    I was talking to a super cute girl on okcupid. Turns out she is a popular person on 4 Chan. Her tumblr is loaded with hentai and photos of guys, tucking their dicks between their legs, and writing her username on their chest in sharpie. Our conversation ended there.

    I have a facebook which is pretty much always open but I rarely actually click anything. Google+ is open but doesn't get any attention since no one uses it. No twitter.

    e: facebook pretty much stays open just for messaging since instant messaging is gone.

    is it weird that when a username starts with 'funny', 'feminist' or 'thebest' then that tumblr sucks but when a username starts with 'communist', 'anime' or 'dads' it owns

    wait I thought 4Chan was anonymous

    do I want to know how this works?

    bcat didnt you have 'a story' to tell me its ok if you changed your mind

    I didn't understand the appeal of twitter until I made an account to connect with a friend I couldn't get in touch with of any other way. I've been using it regularly for two years now. I kind of like how the character limit keeps people from blabbing too much. Tweets pretty much have to be brief and to the point.

    I went through a Facebook phase a couple of years ago but quickly lost interest. I pretty much only check my account now to contact people or to post artwork from time to time.

  • YaYaYaYa Decent. Registered User regular
    I still like Facebook a lot because I tend to use my status updates as a theatre to test out jokes or at least treat it like a game where I feel more successful the more 'Likes' I get

    but I never self-like

    I have friends on twitter and everything and it's a good way to stay in touch with my wife but everytime I see a foursquare notification I have to yell NOBODY CARES WHERE YOU ARE or the bile will build up and I will die

    I don't have friends on twitter! or maybe I do and don't know about it. I follow famous people and look at it every now and then

  • mensch-o-maticmensch-o-matic Registered User regular
    i will never understand why a person would even own a foursquare let alone spread it around to strangers
