i think you can still display relationship status and just block it from going to news feed. so if the status changes, news feed will not post it.

ooooo gotcha

I'm going to start using all the pathetic statuses reported in this thread.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

make sure you have a good cycle. people might start to get suspicious when your imaginary dog dies a third time.


"Just deleted mad shit by accident, couldn't get him to talk to me, car wouldn't start...fml"

the overuse/abuse of fml drives me insane.

throughout the school year, all i see is variations of this:

"i'm in college. i have finals. it's hard (even though i'm a communications major). FML"

I don't get the facebook addiction. Sure there are plenty of addictive games on it, but there are far better ones that are even more addictive else where. And if you are bored, well I think it's Death in one of Pratchett's novels (possibly the hog father) who comments on how impressive it is that we invented boredom in our world :P Try taking up a new hobby perhaps - i've taken up three in the last 2 months and it's a blast.

Sadly, my facebook statuses are pretty pathetic, too.  Unless I feel the need to share something specific about how I'm feeling, I usually just post a song lyric that seems cool to me at the moment.  And then I hope someone recognizes it.

I've been doing this about once a week for the last year and a half, and only twice has anyone acknowledged a song lyric I posted.

I'm so lame.

I'm going to assume that you're just trying to be cool and play into the whole "omigod, look at this status, lol, isn't it suck" thing that's going on in this thread, (which is, quite frankly, fairly pathetic in and of itself) and that you don't know this song. I once heard this song described as the greatest hate song ever written, and the guy that wrote it is undoubtedly one of the greatest lyricists to have ever graced popular music. But seeing as how you're a fan of DT, I can probably fairly safely guess you don't/wouldn't like him anyway, so whatever.

I mean considering we're people who use Facebook and actually take the time to maintain it, that goes beyond describing how lame we are, honestly.

Bob Dylan is a great lyricist.  However the lyrics that I quoted I feel are bad lyrics, but that's just my opinion.  I can't say for the rest of the song, maybe the rest of the song has great lyrics, I don't know, but that line struck me as bad.  And what do you care what I think anyways?

Plus if you knew the person who posted those lyrics, she is talking about some stupid relationship problem or its about some guy she is droolin' over.  She is not using that in context.

And if you think its lame to complain and read about other people's dumb statuses..... why come into this thread?  I dunno I don't get it.
If anyone in this thread judge him; heyy James WTF? about you in Awake In Japan? Then I will say; WTF about you silly?

As soon as facebook was opened to kids that weren't even highschool yet, it totally went to shit. Not to mention that my family tries adding me on a daily basis. I have denied my aunt 7 times now, she thinks I decline her as a joke or something.

Fail status fails.

EDIT: "It's incredibly awkward receiving a mate's "measurements" via SMS and having to break the news that he got the wrong number."
Err, that's amazing you had to tell us all...

"Does anyone know where I can find good quality, nice Memorabilia Plaques for Michael Jackson? Saw some at Highpoint today but they were small"
No. Nobody knows and nobody cares.

"IS BORED OUT HER FRIKEN MIND!!!! CANT WAIT TO GO HOME AT 5PM, AND RELAX DURING THE WEEKEND"
Mhmm, everyone feels like that when they're on Facebook...

"Yo Vanilla, kick it one time boyyy!"
WTF IS THIS GUY TALKING ABOUT?

Well, if you look at my other comments, I was hoping for actual discussion rather than listing shitty statuses for the sake of looking cool on the Internet, but since everyone's enjoying it so much, you're probably right here.

I don't see it as all that quality a move to play "omg look at what my friends wrote as their statuses, aren't they fucktards" behind their backs, but it seems that's just me.

Oh, and by the way - for the people complaining aout the status thing..... I don't use My Space or Facebook, as evidenced by my last post, so maybe I'm wrong but.... don't you actually have to go TO the person's profile to see the status?  If so, why do you GO to these profiles?  Isn't it like, um, your fault that you get annoyed?
