Inspired by d'James' language gripes thread..
Pouting selfies. Especially boys.
Semi nude selfies on open profiles.
Vaguebooking. "I'm so sad right now."
Ellipses...
Those selfies where animal characteristics like ears and noses have been added.
Virtue signalling.
I could go on but I want to leave some for you.

Oh and people sharing "Like 2 win" posts from blatantly fake profiles with absolutely nothing to give away: "Audii", "Thompsson Holidays" etc

Vaguebooking. Its so attention seeking. They want people to ask whats wrong very publicly then when you ask they say they will tell you privately. If they want to be public about being sad be willing to share fully

People with too many "friends".
They're not your friends and they probably (if they have any sense) have you and your crappy updates on ignore.

Vaguebooking vaguebooking vaguebooking. Nothing more annoying, and I will never bite and ask the desired "u ok hun". If you want to talk, talk, but passive aggressive attention seeking just grinds my gears.
And joke thieves.

People who go out of their way to be controversial in their political views or opinions on world issues online just to gain a reaction. Especially when you know said person has that kinda personality for the attention in their day to day life too.

People who post those pictures with "inspirational quotes" on all day.
Those who constantly are playing games and for some reason think we need a notification that they are "looking for food for their pet chicken"
The "look at me... I'm having a drink" bores
The constant check in-ers. A friend of mine felt the need to check in on Facebook to a motor way service station and post "getting a sandwich". No, you're going for a wee. Nobody cares.
I could go on for hours

The endless holiday pics that make you feel you've been there yourself.
The pictures of "our meal"
Oh and don't get me started on the inspirational quotes. Some mornings I am not strong, particularly when I've had a bottle of chardonnay the night before, so I don't need you telling me I am!!!
Most of all, my inability to say F off to all the above.
Great thread btw, I might join in again to the point where you tell me you don't care about my social media dislikes!!!

When people mention they read an article about something and then don't bother to share the URL.
When people screenshot memes and post them on their own feed.
COPY! PASTE! SHARE! posts, even if they're useful. Especially if they're written during emergencies. That stuff can change over time and get outdated really fast.

Oh and cat pictures, I didn't know I had so many cat freaks amongst my friends. And before you put cat sh*t through my letter box, I do like moggies, but dear god I don't need a dozen pix of one eyed orphaned cats each morning because you can't sleep.

When they describe - in their own words or with a meme/quotation, etc. - how a real, or fake, friend should behave.
When they post "share if you have a heart" or "99% of people won't share this but..." etc.
When they complain about... their friends, or they threaten to cancel friends, or claim they've just canceled ten friends, etc. And you wonder if you will be next.
Endless memes and videos about the TV shows they're watching.

When people post a photo album and the featured six or so photos are almost the same photo but in each someone has just moved the tiniest of bits from the previous.

People who put their children as their profile pictures
People who share an update every single day of what amazing thing their child did
And make a big deal out of every little thing that goes wrong with their child.

Parents who have their name on things like facebook as (using an example first name!): Imelda "Bessie's Mummy" Staunton. That drives me up the wall.

So many photos of college/school washrooms - we don't care if someone has just had a sh*t.
People using two hands to take selfies - if you cannot use one hand then don't do it
FB suggesting I become Friends with random people - My work colleagues children who they are naturally friends with often get suggested
Using a stupid Emoji when a disaster happens - Donate or do something positive
FB suggesting friends then questioning why I want to be friends with that person - Don't be a hypocrite
The demise of MySpace
No Francesca Cumani FB Appreciation Thread
