Whining on Facebook
I am just curious how common this shit is with others, I have an old friend named Kellie who is always crying on Facebook about how "shitty her life is" and how her and her husband are always broke, and how unfair everything in life is to them blah blah blah... I finally unfollowed her because I cant stand the constant whining and crying, she was crying on Facebook last year around Christmas so I gave her money, and then a couple months later she was crying about money again, and again, and then this year the same sob story around Christmas about money problems again, this shit gets old. anyone else have friends on Facebook who pull this bullshit.

For the most part, I am sympathetic to people who are truly having a rough time, but what would probably tick me off is if a person has it made being born with a silver spoon in their mouth constantly complains about first world problems.
It was easier to ignore back when people just aired this stuff in Christmas update letters (seriously, those things are depressing as all hell.)
I personally can't believe how much personal stuff people post on Facebook its insane, also how much crap people post as well, like what they are having for dinner, who cares lol.
Stay off of Twitter and Instagram, then.

It's been a thing since Facebook started. I had an early account when it was limited to colleges, and believe me, it was there. I don't think it's really increased, other than more people are on social media and now you see everyone's dirty laundry.

I don't understand Christmas letters. I don't want to read them, I don't want to write them, so why bother?
I wonder if it's not like small talk, something that everyone hates but feels obligated to do anyway.
I don't need my feed clogged up with nonsense. Especially memes with common spelling mistakes but trying to give me life lessons lol
Everyone has "the answer" and needs to make sure everyone else knows it. The amount of "gotcha" memes are terrible. The rest is just mundane nonsense that nobody cares about.
*Xzibit meme*
Who's whining? Just discussing...
Its a joke.
Just be there for her as a friend emotionally.
I mostly use FB to keep up with hobbies and interest groups (not just video games, stuff like theatre, home AV, etc.)
But yeah, I get the sentiment. I mean I think people should be free to post whatever they want to, but if a person's Facebook posts follows one specific theme (even non-whining ones), it can definitely get annoying. Like some of my friends post almost exclusively nothing but memes. It doesn't personally bother me, but I can see why it could bother others. If I don't like what I see, I'll scroll past... unless I'm in the mood to argue and debunk something I deem as stupid, that is.
btw, PSerge can relate to my above post, I'm sure. He unfollowed me because 85% of my wall consists of nothing but memes. I still love him, though. XD
This is a big reason I don't visit Facebook often. Come on people give it up! Don't you know that there are rare games to be found ?
I appreciate the advice, I don't want to delete the account because I stay connected with people I enjoy having in my life through Facebook, I have just decided to unfollow or block people who give off negative posts and vibes.
Wouldnt just using email solve this whole problem?
