I thought it was a site you went to talk about fun topics with your friends not posting photos of your new house and car. Shouldn’t that stuff be shared with your closet friends and family privately?
it’s just something about a grown person bragging about stuff that comes off as odd to me.
I thought Facebook was for enlightening people with your political wisdom distilled into a photo meme.
Facebook is just a tool, if your friend stands in front of your house with a megaphone bragging about their vacation, you don’t blame the megaphone.
I thought Facebook was just an easy way to get people to come to your parties.
This.
Actually, I think it has everything to do with your circle of friends.
Mine is filled with politics, and how “evil” the Obama is. (I’m a lefty living in Texas)
My GF, let me look at hers, and hers was all music and animal rescue type stuff. Not ONE political post on there.
So I’d say FB is hardly uniform to say the least.
If seeing photos of your friends being happy and excelling at life makes you upset, the problem isn’t with your friends.
And seriously if you don’t like someone enough to be happy for them when they accomplish something, you should remove them from your friend list.
Don’t you mean get into your panties?
Oh, wait thats Eharmony.
I wasn’t bothered but some people who are going through a rough time was which made her come out and say later please don’t think I was bragging.
Eharmony, the worst dating site ever
Takes an hour to complete a profile
the membership is $100
Facebook can be seen as a place to brag about your life because everyone has friends or family that seem to exist just to live-blog their oh-so-wonderful life on there. Also remember Facebook has thumbs up but no thumbs down buttons (although that supposedly is being worked on), so people tend to get nothing but positive feedback unless someone actually cares to type a disparaging comment and look like the bad guy.
You’ve got problems with lots of people, don’t cha?
This is how I feel about it. I have a couple of friends who can’t shut up posting about how awesome their kids are…I just scroll past when it gets too much.
No, that’s Tindr.
I met my wife on Eharmony. Bastards never did send the wedding gift they promised.
Facebook: The insufferable Christmas letter that comes every day.
I was forced to use Facebook, kicking and yelling all the way, when my older son had his first child. They put EVERYTHING on Facebook - all the pictures, updates, etc., so I had no real choice. In spite of making myself as private as possible, I’m now getting bombarded by friend requests from people I used to know and have no interest in hearing from. And because my sons’ friends have ‘friended’ me, I now get updates from all of their vast network of friends, as well. The whole thing just makes my head hurt. But they’ve got me over a barrel because I really want to see the grandbaby updates.
Why can’t people go on vacation and stay off Facebook?
Now here’s a mystery: how does one parse this sentence?
I was on my phone at the time
Some people on her friend’s list was bothered by the house photo because some of them maybe going through a tough time financially and may have felt she was bragging.
How do you know this? Did these facebook friends of hers talk to you and tell you this?
She wasnt bragging?
