I'm not on it, never will go on it. I know too many people who almost seem to live their lives through it. I have two mates who are having a massive blue after they had a small spat and one of them went home and posted something about the other one on facebook. I cant read it, don't want to read it, they keep telling me I don't understand............theyre right.

Haha Facebook fights are hilarious :D
 
Theres nothing worse than people who tag you in photos after a drunken night out. And you dont realise until after a few hours of them being posted up so everyones already seen them.

You can avoid the new photo viewer by right-clicking-->open in new tab.
At least in Google Chrome.

I believe this works in any browser. If you click on the first photo of an album and it comes up with the shitty new photo viewer, refresh the page (F5) and it will take you back to the old school viewer where you can scroll through like before. Much better :thumbsu:
 
Or go the end of the address bar and remove the end tag that reads "&theater" and hit Enter.

I used to be on Facebook all the time, but use it less and less now. I have 170 'friends'; maybe only 30 post regularly. Of those only, 5 or so are consistently entertaining; the rest are 'FML work is shit/my tooth hurts/my kids are amazing/I love my hubby' bores.

The reason why we pay professional entertainers highly, is because they are more entertaining than our friends.

Friends are for real life stuff, not ersatz Clayton's -entertainment via the computer screen.

You can't even have stuff like 'The Facebook Guide to Getting the Woman of Your Desire' on there because it's not suited to that. It's just navel gazing bullshit.

At least on Twitter some professional comedians & entertainers hand out one-liners and bon mots for free, but I can't be bothered learning how to use it.
 
A baby has been named Facebook in Egypt :eek:

Egyptian couple names baby 'Facebook' to honour revolution
NewsCore From: NewsCore February 22, 2011 11:20AM

FACEBOOK has close to 600 million users around the world, and as of yesterday, at least one baby named after it.
In honour of the role the social network played in the revolution in Egypt - which led to the departure of longtime President Hosni Mubarak - one Egyptian couple named their baby girl "Facebook", TechCrunch reported.
Citing an article in Egyptian newspaper Al-Ahram, the technology blog reported that Jamal Ibrahim chose the name as a way to express his gratitude to the country's youth.
The girl's family, friends, and neighbours in the Ibrahimia region gathered around the newborn to show their continuing support for the internet-aided revolution, the paper said.
The social networking site played a crucial role in the Egyptian uprising, so much so that it has widely been labeled "the Facebook Revolution".

This was the #1 reason I got rid of my Facebook account. I don't want other people identifying me to the world in photos that I have no control of or don't even know about.

You know you can block everyone from being able to identify photos you are tagged in?
 
You just detag yourself if you dont want it. Its just that period of time before you realise. You cant stop people from putting photos of you up though whether your on Facebook or not.

I have to be careful now as Im in real estate and my face is in the public.

Amazing. And what's even more amazing is that the reasoning behind it is somewhat, well, reasonable. If, as reported, Facebook played a large part in the revoluation, then that's pretty damn cool. Facebook-mediated democracy, fancy that?

I posted something about my boss/work on one of my work friends status. I didnt realise at the time they had the boss and principal as friends on there. I was confronted by the boss a day or so after infront of everyone. Was pissed off asking if I was referring to him. I said well yeah.
 
Re: Funny Facebook Stories

I just enjoy trawling through guys profiles that add random chicks then proceed to get the 'do i know you' wall post and think thats a sign for them to start chatting said chicks up


so many fail
 
Re: Funny Facebook Stories

I have one guy on my list who'll say " Do I know you?", get a negative response and proceed to say the two of them need to "catch up".
 
Re: Funny Facebook Stories

Facebook within my group of friends is pretty much just constant banter.
 
Re: Funny Facebook Stories

People who break up on facebook. It is very funny seeing people lose their shit for all to see.
