Facebook in general has been giving me the shits recently.
That is just stupid. No Facebook, I do not want to see when someone comments on some random status that I never even saw. Also, I do not want to see how many retarded groups you join, how many things you become a ‘fan’ of and what events you are attending. Facebook is just removing the challenge of stalking people now. Thank Christ there are such things as filters.
Now that I’m on the subject of Facebook, I’m going to go over another facet that is out of control on this wonderful site: groups and other pages. Some of these groups (from here on in I am including those fan pages when I say groups) make me want to move my computer to the laundry just so I’m close enough to a bucket if I start projectile vomiting because I accidentally read a really bad title. There are some different categories that groups fall under, and they are all as bad as each other:
- Join if x applies to you
- Join if you like x
- Join if you hate x
- Join if you disagree with x
And the list goes on like this. There are, of course, the outstanding displays of idiocy that make you want to question who would win if the person who first made the group went up against a vegetable in a game of chess. After opening the flood gates on Facebook on my own news feed, I went looking for groups that made me think a short and simple “why?” Here is the result of five minutes work:
- Free Facebook Gold Accounts!
- Why do the people who never drink not have a car or license!!!
- If you have an amaazing best friend :)
- See whos stalking your page!
- i used to play on Crash Bandicoot on the PS1! :)
- Don’t u hate it when u’re hungry,turn on TV and see a random cooking show?!
- If your name starts with A, C, D, F, H, I, J, K, L, M, S, T…join!!!
The following group takes the cake.
Yes, this group has over 1.5 MILLION members. All under 14, and who sadly believe that this could actually happen. I have to share a few amazing posts that people have made on the wall of this group.
Yeah I edited out names in the first screenshots and not these ones, what of it?
Mad tangents aside, Facebook is easier to troll than an 80 year old with dementia. It helps that people get far too involved in some groups and madly invite all their friends to join and help the group reach its target number (all the cool kids set a target number for groups to reach). Little do they know they are slowly handing themselves a legal warrant for their death because amongst the group invitations they send out to everyone, there are numerous Farmville requests asking people to send them gifts and help them out with crops that just keep getting attacked by those darn crows!
Shoutouts go out to a few people this time:
- James for having mad skills in duel-booting
- Yukari. May your blog always be of lesser quality than mine
- b1gvent people for hassling me to actually write something again
