those genious developers at Facebook have developed a security question where you have to correctly identify your friends from their uploaded photos! Not only that, but they weren't pictures of my friends, but of their bloody kids! It was pictures of babies for christ's sake.
That made me laugh! It sounds like the format for a crappy new ITV game show. They'd call it something like 'You're Kidding!'.

This is actually from someone on my twitter feed but i decided it should go in here:

"Oh gosh, why must I forget I get grassed up when I write things on social networking sites"

Eh? Makes no sense!!

In the past few days i've had 4 friends who I previously thought were intelligent, post status updates like "What time does Argos open?", "What time does Primark and Tesco open", all posted from iphones, which if i'm not mistaken gives them easy access to this amazing thing called 'the internet'.
Had to resist the urge to do the classic reply "Google is your friend"

Also on Twitter during the storms last night there were tweets like this:

"If the wifi goes down during another powercut tonight, i will scream"

Are some people thick?

Most people's facebook wall today will be full of people posting pictures of food,alcohol and presents. Trying to prove how great a Christmas they are all having. Amirite?

"omg so many presents" "omg so much wrapping paper to pick up" "On the sherry at 8:30 this morning #call the priory" "turkey is in the oven". All followed with half a dozen pictures.

I just came on here to voice my despair at grown women making little piles of presents, taking photos, then putting them on Facebook to boast about how their man spoils them etc

This!

I've realised today how tacky so many of the people I know are. Boasting like there is no tomorrow about all their presents. Gross

Oh this annoys me. There's one person on my FB who has posted several pics all saying how she is spoilt rotten. It's been doing my head in.

How sickly swee-, no, just sickly! It's the guy's third engagement in about three years, so I'd like to comment 'OMG congrats hun, hope u mak it 2 the registry office this tym LOL xxxx'.

Facebook annoys me over Christmas, everyone bragging and showing off what they've received.

Its the photos of the piles of presents for kids that get me. Especially as some of the kids are too young to understand what is happening.

One of my friends posted pictures of her child's first Christmas with a room full of presents. The said baby is not even 4 months old....

Since when was christmas a competitive event?

So far ive seen the following updates

"Wow 5 whole hours of opening presents, im bloody knackered now!"

"Ha that didnt take the boys long to open all their pressies! 200 presents between the two of them"

"Just spent four hours with all the kids opening pressies and still got pressies from mum and dad to come!"

While Facebook brings out the awful in people, Facebook+Christmas makes them bloody awful. Usual photos of piles of presents (one delighted in saying 76 presents, all in identical wrapping paper), tablets for 1 year olds, photos of wine drinking at 9am, photos of manky looking dinners, status updates of whatever crap is being watched on TV.

Today, I'm being treated to updates about the dash for the Next sale (probably the worst clothing sale ever) and photos of more presents as the in-laws arrive.

I think it just highlights how insecure some people are and how they think quantity of presents means you are more loving to your kids than someone who didn't get many.

I have a friend who recently got into a relationship and she's a nightmare on Facebook. She is always posting how perfect her life is and tagging them in bed together!!! She's been seeing him less than two months but has moved in with him and even signed her Christmas card from the both of them and his kid. I preferred it when she was miserable and posting woe is me status'!!!!

I had a similar one of a 4 week old which was four images of her asleep taken in different angles and made in to one image with the tag line "Santa's little elf is all worn out after opening all her presents"

It seemed like half my friends list got engaged yesterday, some had only been together a few months!

Agreed- a lot of them looked like someone had vomited on the plate but perhaps that was just the bread sauce?

I had three, my partner had three and my teenage boys had two each. Took about ten minutes.

I felt so sorry for one of my FB friends as her baby ended up in hospital and is really rather poorly.

However, I'm not sure it was necessary for a photo of baby in an oxygen mask and on a drip to be posted...poor thing, I do feel so sorry for her and her baby but I wouldn't have posted a photo of it!

Oh gosh, that's terrible. Poor wee soul. Mother needs to reign in the attention-seeking though.

That is pure attention seeking. Poor baby but it really doesn't need to be all over Facebook.
