What is it about today's society that one feels the need to tell everyone about what they are doing, what they've done, where they're going etc?

What I can't understand, is people complaining about the crap on Facebook, then say they don't go on Facebook.


That's a fair point Flash, it was merely an observation as to what my perception of it is.Just to clarify I do not have any social media account, and probably never will.
I've had many a conversation with like minded people who in the main think that this whole social media thing is bolloxs, with the caveat that it can be used in a very positive way.Each to their own eh!😉

Another thing I don't get is all these dating agencies and internet sites, it seems nobody goes out to find and meet Girlfriends/boyfriends anymore, how can you assess someone online, you could eventually go and meet a person and find that they just don't do it for you and there are awkward moments as you try and getting out of the situation. bizare indeed, dare say it works for some, but I wonder what the percentage is? high on the negative side is my opinion.

lol fack. Sorry. Didnt mean to quote you on that!!

Cant say i disagree with you about the meeting birds bit. But im as bad as anyone for the online thing. Thats a whole different topic though as its all very fake and contrived. People make zero effort (myself included) and have no attention span whatsoever. People are making themselves nothing more than a commodity these days. Im sick of it tbh

Agree totally Fathy, to me everybody on there has a supposed ‘PERFECT LIFE’ with the usual PHOTOSHOPPED IMAGES and promoting their ‘personna’ and ‘daily activities’ ........

Surely if your life is that bloody good then why not just get on with it and bloody enjoy it without taking a selfie every 10 minutes ....!!!


Most of us have these wonderful lives

...it’s just you who has a shitty existence.

I just reach out, press my finger against her nose and 'swipe left'. Sometimes exclaiming "Expelliarmus, pig". She soon disappears. Nothing awkward about it, tbh...well, not for me.

Good luck, Mr Cooper

1) Men pouting in photos, girls look ridiculous enough, but lads....f*cking stop it.

2) Girls with Ming from Flash Gordon eyebrows. Eyebrows are meant to deflect water from your eyes, they are NOT supposed to have corners....

3) People who write billy big bollocks statuses like...."to the man in the shop who just stood on my toe, it's a good job u had ur kids with u or I'd have knocked u out!" Or "to the woman in the green corsa who cut me up earlier then smiled at me at the lights, it's a good job the lights changed cos I was gonna get out and kick u square in the minge!".... Firstly they won't see that status because you don’t know them, secondly, why are you making out like you’d show any aggression towards them? You clearly said absolutely nothing to them, then ran home to write a status about what you would have done if you had some bollocks....

4) 30+ year old men describing good things as "sick"... Grow up...

5) Young people using Americanisms, like.. "We got a cab home and made out.." No mate, you fingered her in a taxi....

6) "New hair" posts...it’s not f*cking new hair, it's your same old hair just shorter and laced with chemicals to make it the same colour as whichever pretty celeb you’re trying to copy... And by the way, she looks nice with red hair...you look like a tool.

7) Overnight nutritionists...I'm glad you recently discovered health and fitness 4 months ago, but knowing that chicken and rice is good clean food, doesn't mean you should post pics of your 8 prepped meals online every morning and preach how we should all be eating just that. Some of us like pizza thanks! F*ck off!!

😎 People who post updates like "what time does the co-op open?" You clearly have internet access... Google it you f*cking cretin!!!

9) THIS!!!! Status: "completely devastated"
What's up babe?
U ok Hun?
What's happened?
"I've inboxed you...."
You knob....that’s all.

10) Pics of girls legs in the bath, just short of their tuppence...just pack it in, you attention seeking whore. The post isn't about… "peace at last"... It's about, "I'm naked and gagging for cock, inbox me".


*Stolen from elsewhere

I want a mate like Flashberryjacks, who wears a Barnsley jersey with "Swans are my second team" on the back.

Some people lack confidence when in society......the Internet gives them a platform to be who they want to be,..,they wouldn't dare be that in society.

But some on Facebook/Twitter need to get a life.

Don't you think though, that social media, mobile phone, texting and all that has or is ruining people's ability to interact socially.Just a thought, I accept your idea that for some it helps them to integrate.

Couples “checking in” to a restaurant.. now there’s a happy couple honestly, they’ve convinced themselves they r happy. Yeah right. Secondly pics of plain looking kids with grandparents comments of “ lovely pic” or “gorgeous photo”. What trash.

There appears to be a number of people in this thread who clearly deep down are jealous that their 'friends' on Facebook have better lives than them, very sad. I'm not on about you, Jackfath, your responses were reasonable. Others however have some serious issues.
