Hello all! I
don’t have much work in office today, so just thought to update my blog! It
always feels good to share our thoughts, feelings, notions and expressions with
fellow bloggers. I mean one can share anything here, right?
Basically, I
am here to crib about Facebook junkies who have lost their mind out somewhere
and who keeps irritating me every time I login to my FB account. Though, I am
not much of a Facebooker and deactivated my account long ago for some weird
reason. But here, at my office, had to create two separate FB accounts for some
professional requirements. One is of absolutely of no use, and in second one, I
have my friends, colleagues and my cousins who found me somehow, god know how!
A while ago,
I was going through one of my friend’s profile and I saw terribly sentimental
status that could even make a stone cry. I called him and found out that he had
a break-up with his girlfriend of two weeks. What rubbish! He needs a tight
slap to be brought back to reality, I hope you’re reading this, moron!
I have
always failed to understand why the hell people display their emotions through
FB status? Why can’t they just go to that person and say it? That would be more
effective and plausible and REAL obviously, isn’t it?
‘Ate an ice-cream
in this f****ing chilly winter’, ‘Yayy Sunday! Sunday! Car wash day!’ ‘Drank
all night, terrible hangover’ – statuses (that too at a stunning speed of 5
statuses/minute) like these really piss me off and I can’t believe people with
such lame status messages are related to me somehow! Can’t tell you the horror!
You won’t
believe I have seen people making a whole album of 52 photos out of a
‘pizza-lunch-day-out’ – happens to be the name of that album (that’s an art,
really)! And I was like, are you kidding me? Hasn’t anyone seen pizza or you
eating a pizza or a pizza eating you? Get a life!
Now, we come
at check-ins! ‘At home’, ‘At bed’, ‘In cab’ ‘In bathroom’, ‘At Laxmi nagar
metro station’, are people really going crazy or am I hallucinating? People who
make such horrible check-ins should know that nobody cares where the hell you
are, after all you aren’t a celebrity or a Bigg Boss contestant! Such check-ins
just makes you sound super idiotic, trust me on that!
One thing I
forgot to mention, my one friend loves Hrithik Roshan like anything. By default I saw 7
Hrithik Roshan, 5 Katrina Kaif and 4 Priyanka Chopra in her friend list! I was
at loss of words when I saw that. I have no comments for this!
Apart from
showing the world that you have planted 5 carrots in your Farmville, there are
people who are more interested in other people’s lives than their own. They
don’t have any better thing to do in life than to stalk their ex’s/acquaintance’s
profile, their current bf/gf’s profile, and then their uncle’s, their niece’s, their
grandmother’s, their cat’s, their dog’s and so forth. This might look stupid
but this is scary as hell, trust me because stalking is what made me deactivate
my profile.
I just wish
FB lovers to realize that such lame activities could be fun to you but for
others it’s sheer horror! Amen!
Facebook has always delivered to me.. Wonder how I would have found my school friends and my family gets to see the kids growing.However, not getting addicted to it is another thing.Your post is so thought provoking.

ReplyDelete:D
good one ! NEW FOLLOWER HERE
Lol, not just sheer horror but we really don't care to know every time they go to the bathroom or what they had for dinner. It's a sign you have no life if you take 52 photos of an ordinary pizza meal. So sad indeed.
ReplyDeletei totally second u..:D
ReplyDeletehaha..Wish i could copy past this and put it on my FB..But then I Have started hating FB so much so that I log in once in a blue moon and still gte super annoyed at people's status msgs and pics..gah!! :)
ReplyDeleteAgree with you Sanjana! As long as FB is used wisely it is an asset and likewise minute wise update could really be a pain:)
ReplyDelete-Good piece of information.

Sanjana,
ReplyDeleteRead it yesterday but could not say anything as blogspot did not let me. So here I am. Very factual post. Addiction to or obsession with anything is always not only bad but harmful too. Hope such persons realize and desist from unwanted updates.
Take care
lol...fb can get irritating sometimes :)
ReplyDeleteeverythings gud in moderation...:P as for me, i simply prfer blocking people who have the obsessive compulsive disorder of making their basically uninteresting life public. Although, i'd admit checking out fb at least once in a day, so that the friends whom u miss out in the daily rush of life seem to be around, albeit virtually.:)
ReplyDeleteWhat's up, after reading this awesome piece of writing i am as well glad to share my familiarity here with mates.
