JerseyShawn 0 #14 April 17, 2011 Or the people who post what they're doing at the moment are just as annoying. "Just got home, making dinner" "Just checked in at the 'Green Burrito' " "Going to grandmas with the baby" Who gives a shit. Im just as bad because I now post when Im taking a poop, because its so important for others to know. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anthonyfellows 0 #20 April 17, 2011 I agree ... It does nothing to help the cause and it just puts something negative into most of our minds. Same goes for those "Stop Child Abuse" and "Stop Senior Abuse" bumper stickers. Not sure how anyone thinks they help ... Probably more like the opposite. When the ones who are causing the problem see it, it has to remind them that they haven't beat the shit out of a child or senior citizen in awhile.Serious relationships turn into work after a few weeks and I already got a fucking job :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ H.A.F. = Hard As Fuck ...

NWFlyer 2 #21 April 17, 2011 Yeah, the thing about these and most FB "memes" is that they make people feel good about themselves without actually doing anything proactive. FB can be useful for "doing something." Several times I've found out a friend is participating in a fundraiser event through Facebook and I've opened my wallet to support them. I'm happy to support their event and the cause that's important to them (so far I've never been asked to support one that I find abhorrent!) and Facebook is a useful tool for them to spread the word. The rest, I just ignore - if it becomes too consistent, there's that handy "Hide" feature."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J. O'Rourke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
