It isn't about you, it has never been about you, it is about your child. Complaining for a week on Facebook about being sick, and how you just can't miss the biggest event in your child's life this weekend because you don't feel well. SUCK IT UP! You have a freaking cold! Why do you feel the need for sympathy and draw the attention to you all the time! Post something positive or just don't post. I am no longer following you, I don't need your drama. Ok - I feel better now!

It's good to get it off your chest sometimes!

My favorite WTH were you thinking post on FB was from my niece who posted a horrid status right after getting home with her new baby. I don't remember the exact wording but it was something to the effect of - if you haven't bothered to come to see us in our new home by now, don't come just because you want to see the new baby because you aren't welcome. My sister and I discussed this and couldn't believe she would post such a thing. Amazing.

We have a neighborhood FB group. Someone posted looking for a pet sitter, giving their address and the dates they will be gone. Their dogs are in kennels, but are super friendly and they need someone to let them out a couple times at day. Now everyone in the open group knows when to break into your house.

I have a FB "friend" who whenever she has a headache, a cold, a sleepless night she feels the need to post it. Then, several other friends post sympathy replies. WTF. Get over yourself.

I have a couple that love to do the Woe is Me. Everyone has problems, nobody cares about your hair or your vague messages you post when you think someone has "done you wrong" and there is no need to Like your own post. Why else would you have posted it. LOL

I've unfollowed/hidden so many people from my facebook feed that all I get now are companies I've liked posts. I got tired of all the vaguebooking & crazy rants people post.

we have a federal election coming up and i have had just about enough of the vitriol on my feed. has anyone ever been convinced to vote differently because of these chicken little/the sky is falling/omg people i know would actually vote for X posts???
there is one woman (mother of one of dd's friends) who literally must spend all day every day searching for posts on how our prime minister has ruined our country, why people who vote for him are uneducated, misinformed or whatever. while i *may* actually agree with some of her opinions, her constant hysteria is so ridiculous. isn't this the cool part about a democracy, we ALL get to have our own views.
so glad our election period is so much shorter than the american one - i couldn't take months more of this crap!
(p.s. i suspect "her" party is NOT going to win, polls put them third of the three major parties, so i guess she is getting desperate!)

I think it is odd when someone post "I wish I could get rid of this migraine headache"
When I have a migraine, the last thing I want to do is be on a computer, tablet or phone - the light makes my head hurt worse. I want to type a comment that says "well, get off the freakin' computer and your headache might get better"

I'll play When someone continually posts passive aggressive memes that are CLEARLY directed at certain people. but then comes back with a meme that says " just because I post a particular meme DOESN'T mean I'm talking about someone or something is happening in my life. I just see things that I like and post it to share with you all"
Sure....not really fooling us here!

Relative that posts so many selfie and #'s that she now adds #selfiesyndrome to her posts. Do we really need to see every outfit and meal?

I have a "friend" that will post a status and then a whole bunch of #s. One post had 15 #s with it. I think one or two can be cute but not that many!

I am baffled by the things my dad posts. He's had Facebook for two years or so but recently got a smart phone so he's actually posting now, or rather sharing political or sexist memes and going back months or years and liking pictures of us kids.
Some may remember I posted a couple of months ago that my mom had shoulder surgery and specifically asked my dad not to work during that first two weeks (retired, just picks up hours here and there at a job he finds fun for minimum wage). In the recovery room when she still was half in / half out of anesthesia he was calling my sister to see if she could stay with Mom in a couple of days so he could work. The sister who had back surgery a couple of weeks prior and wasn't released to lift more than five pounds herself.
About two weeks after that he posted a meme that said something to the effect of when people show you by their actions who they are, believe them. It took all I had not to post "is this you confirming you're an asshole?"
eta ~ I knew that didn't sound quite right, so I went back through his posts to find it. "When someone loves you, they don't have to say it. You can tell by the way they treat you." I'm shocked my mom didn't kick him out of the house after that. She has been unhappy with him for a while, but this surgery thing really was the last straw. I'm waiting for the separation, or for her to just say she's in it only because of their age (76 and 74). And before someone asks if it might be his age, yes, it is getting worse but he's always been an ass.
