I think Facebook should impose a limit on status updates per day.

Jessibell · February 2010

If you need to update your status more than five times on an average day, please utilize Twitter.

Crap, I just updated mine. I think I've done it twice today! Now I'm paranoid, bizznatch!

FolanMama · February 2010

Punks gonna get you on this one.

Hahahahaha.

OMG YES! I have said this countless times. Facebook is not Twitter. I have this one friend that makes me die a little every time she posts, but I can't hide her because she would know.

UGH.

Lol! Not you!! Pinky swear. I wish I could hide people from my phone. I had to scroll a page and a half to see anyone but two posters. One was an establishment though.

That's when I Ignore people...its like telling them to shut up, only they have no idea.

Because you comment on them? I didn't think people could know if they were hidden. That would explain something....

This made me LOL (Thanks, I so needed that today).

I also have people on my list who update constantly, and most of their posts are about them being sick, feeling bad, having a headache, having the shats - stuff that I really don't want to know about.

i don't know... i get a lot of entertainment from crazies who update constantly. there is a girl from hs who is ALWAYS good for a chuckle.

anna7602 · February 2010

I agree!

Kateysomething · February 2010

I'm too lazy to check Twitter & FB. My Twitter friends utilize the app that automatically updates your FB status with whatever you Tweet, and it makes me happy.

But yeah, I don't have any chronic updaters. If I do, I blocked them long ago

Crazy is good. I just don't need an hour by hour update of a pretty mundane, routine day.

Brushing my teeth

Headed to work

Lunch at chili's. Yum!

Steaks on the grill!

Hoo boy am I tired!

Headed to bed! Night FB friends!

Can't sleep. Heating some milk.

punkfiction_v.3 · February 2010

And what do I do w/ "Wow, hubby and I got food poisoning last night. I won't go into details, but you can imagine. Ugh" Ok, so now I and the 300 other people on her feed are imaging all sorts of disgusting things...and we didn't ask for that! Geesh.

lol jessi, the point is that YOU can do something so you dont have to see it. so complaining about what the website is intended for is such a waste of keystrokes.

Natalie, these are my fictional examples of a pattern poster. Changed to protect the not so innocent.

I have some major hiding to do when I get home.

What kind of phone do you have? I use the Opera browser on my blackberry, and I can't see the posts of people I've hidden. (the facebook app for BB sux. The moble Opera site is so much better!)

Now now. I'm being tounge and cheek. Merely pointing out how Punk would disagree, not that you would get ripped a new one by her.

Five times a day I can handle... It's five times in 10 min that drives me crazy... I had to ignore someone because any time they watched something, it was?

"OMG the Bachelor!"

2 min later?

"I can't believe she just said that! #bachelor"

30 sec later?

"Is he for real??? #bachelor"

3 min later?

"WHAT?????"

5 min later?

"Did he just pick her?"

?

drives me BONKERS.

No, she would just know because the next time we talked she would be all "you didnt see this on facebook? I posted about it like 20 times" and I would be busted.

I have someone on my FB is a new relationship. She posts at least 10 times a day about how her BF is going to call her, how he did call her , how she is waiting for the phone to ring etc. etc. etc. She is a grown woman in her 40's.

Amen. I stopped FBing regularly pretty much because of all the boring updates. I really don't need to know when people are standing in line for coffee. Kthanks.

I have an even better one. What about my Aunt in her 50s talking about her sex life with her boyfriend.
