So this irks the shit out of me. And this is more of an UO with in the fam.
Someone has exciting news. They of course say it to their parents and siblings first. Then to aunts, uncles and cousins etc. Maybe some close friends. THEN they decide to share the news when they are ready to the Social Media world. The thing that irks (i like this word a lot) me is when one of the people I mention above takes it upon themselves to share YOUR news on FB before you do. WHY?!?!?!?!
Because people act like selfish jerks under the guise of excitement. This is why only 2 close friends know and no family yet. My family can't keep a secret even though it's obviously not their news to share. Announcing to them means announcing to the world immediately if I want to share the news myself. I ended up announcing earlier than expected last time because of it.
ETA: so ya, I'm a big fan of the cute facebook announcement for myself and ones I see from friends. Adding to a family is a huge moment in life, its a great moment to share.
My UO (well...maybe...it could be a popular one): People who make facebook pages for their babies.
Or their animals.
(eek animal lovers unite in hatred)
Even I don't do that! Lol
You're not as hardcore as I thought, @CALEO. GTFO.
