Chris Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Use an extension called 'Social Fixer' (for Chrome and Firefox I believe). It is excellent!I used that for a bit but it kept breaking due to changes Facebook made so I removed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 The last few posts reminded me of my latest pet hate - all the school related facebook apps. I keep getting messages saying people I went to school with have posted on my wall and it's just because they've tagged me in some piece of shit schoolfeed app 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Amp arrived, even though they'd told me it had already been delivered and signed for yesterday. Fuck Yodel. At least they didn't break it. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gladstone Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Facebook in general is a pet hate of mine. I can't bring myself to remove myself from it because it is handy to keep in touch with folk (nobody seems to use mobile phones or e-mail addresses anymore - just facebook!). But that means I need to be witness to some of the most mundane shit known to man and some of the most annoying shit known to man.People's "private" conversations being carried out as "wall-to-wall" conversations - such as: "Hey hun, what time you home tonight?""Don't know - got this essay to finish in the library first - maybe about 7pm?""Aw, okay cool, let me know and I'll get the supper on!""Oooh, what's for supper?""Cheesey pasta lol"":-)"FUCK OFFOr people keeping the world up to date on their little cretin's fucking illness / lack of sleep / shitting in public. Honestly - I couldn't give a fuck and I'm sure most other people couldn't either (even although comments such as "My poor wee soul's got a sore throat again and can't sleep tonight" are often littered with comments from other cunts who need to get a worthwhile hobby saying shit like "aw, hope he feels better soon, little Kelsi had that last week"). They are fucking kids, they will get ill, be a pain in the arse, fart in front of someone in public, the same as the rest of us did when we were kids but our parents didn't write fucking letters to all their friends to tell them about it.

Like...one a day at least.I know what they look like. I'm sure you do too. And when it goes horribly wrong, you're going have a bitch of a cunt of a time deleting all these photos through your tears. So just stop it now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Facebook hatin'. I'm in. Not so much the site, as it's a good thing. Just some idiots who use it. I've got someone on my list whose boyfriend has commented on every single one of her photos with shit like "OMGZZZ SO HOT" to really clingy desperate shit like "Isn't it AMAZING when your girlfriend is so hot and stylish like this?". What a tit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsum_Fantastic Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Folk who bid on your stuff on ebay, and once they've won the item tell you that they can't pay for a few days. Fucking ask first. You can't order something from Play.com then go "oh I'll pay it on Tuesday"I do it sometimes as the great thing about ebay is you have a few days to pay for it, thems the rules.

Soda Jerk Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Just as long as people don't take the piss, I think it's fine, though if I'm selling stuff, I prefer to be paid asap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skubbs Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 I do it sometimes as the great thing about ebay is you have a few days to pay for it, thems the rules.The item sold on Thursday... everyone else had paid by Sunday. Next time I'll choose the "immediate payment" option, because arsed waiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 That Schoolfeed thing is doing my knob in as well. Also I keep getting sent invites / requests from "Marvel Avengers Alliance" or something like that. It shows as a notification and it even fucking emails me.

Spoonie Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Mine is people who post the same shit on facebook every single day. There's a guy, soon to disappear from my feed whose posts all consist of:"Standing at the platform. No train. Again. #scotfail""This sunny, dry almost warm weather doesn't half mess up the trains... #scotfail"You don't like the train service. We get it.Another one is people on your feed whose posts are ALWAYS depressing. Now the people I'm referencing here actually both suffer from depression, which may explain it, but c'montaefuck, do you make it any better by posting this shit?!"Thank fuck this year is over. Worst year of my life." I'm sure the woman you married in August (who is smokin' hot) will be delighted to read that."Does anyone want to come and see me. Give me a reason to leave the house." Aye, with that go-getter attitude, I'd love to spend some hours in your company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanClews Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 "Standing at the platform. No train. Again. #scotfail" I used to grump about the trains when they weren't running, but I complain about everything on Facebook. But I'd like to think I balanced it out with witty comments. But in hindsight I think it was 95% complaining, 5% jokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stroopy121 Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Here's why I think twitter is awesome (better than / completely different to facebook)140 character limit on posts means it keeps people succinct and stops pages and pages of bitching like in FB.The fact that 'following' is a one-way street means that if someone is dull, unfolllow them. Not like in FB where "unfriending" someone can be some huge social awkwardness that makes people like Lucky sad.It's easier to skim-read stuff on a twitter feed than it is on FB.No event invitations, birthday reminders, farmville requests.. etc.xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
