The pathetic facebook status thread.

[Fuzzboy]

As far as I can remember, Myspace users are more likely to be a racial minority, under 18, or of a lower socioeconomic class, whereas facebook users tend to be more white, older, and come from richer areas. The class/age parts I think are the major factors though.

Its an interesting topic regardless. Both are free, both require the knowledge of using a computer. What is it exactly that makes certain people choose one over the other that would be a result of race?

The possessive 'my' part in MySpace??

I think it is more of the ability to pimp your myspace page and making it look fly.

I don't know what's worse: that she's playing soccer drunk, or that she decided to get drunk in the middle of the week.

[Scurvy!Dreams]

Probably that you're so judgmental. Yeah, that's definitely worse.

[Super Dude]

I thought you said you'd never personally attack me?

[Sigz]

Wednesday drinking FTW

Dream Theater  Mike Portnoy named in top 50 drummers of all time.

Now this, my friends, is just pathetic. I am ashamed to be a DT fan now. I will now write a book on my experiences of being a fan of this great band and store it in a box and put it in the attic for future generations to read.

Well it depends whose definition we're going by apparently.

LOL I was just kidding there, the thing about MP is what DT on Facebook wrote.

[Super Dude]

OK.  Just checking.

[Gwii]

"is giving up"


I clicked "like this"

[Super Dude]

I always "like" Eli's statuses.  I'm waiting for her to realize that my liking them does not mean I'm sympathizing with her.

[Birch Boy]

One from a few days ago: i just leaned over my stove and my penis turned on a burner and almost lit my hair on fire.

The really shocking thing is the number of how many people liked it 

[Phantasmatron]

i just leaned over my stove and my penis turned on a burner and almost lit my hair on fire.

That one caught me by surprise.

Eli someone kill me

[Super Dude]

Okay, I just have to post this.  First, the Eli status: "Eli is basically going to be alone forever. life is great, isn't it?"

And now, the content that deems posting this pathetic Facebook status, the comments:

Nicole: DISAGREE.

Eli: too bad the rest of the world agrees with me.

Nicole: DISAGREE. Can I tag people in posts?

Jessica ✯: I am in love with you... You will not be alone... Eat dinner with me tomorrow♥

Eli: I am alone and i probably always will be

Eli: sure there are people around me, but i feel like i just walk through the streets, while i'm gray and everyone else is vibrant and sees right through me

Nicole: i see you. YOU ARE VIBRANT AND FULL OF LIFE.

Jason: please think before you type statuses like this. more people care about you than you would like to let on.

Eli: i think all the time, and perhaps that's my problem...

Jason: WE LOVE YOU. GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEAD.

Eli: cant let you do that starfox

Nicole: ITS TRUE WE LOVE YOU

Jessica ✯: we really really do

David: gray? you crazy

Greg: my girlfriend is gay for you. if theres anything to make you feel better, thats it.

Josh: Eli, I'm honestly a little offended by that statement; all of us should be. we love you, pretty girl. you're a bright star among us; your wisdom, however morbid it can be, is a new take on life that i'd never have thought about without you. we all gain so much from you being with us. don't think like this, we're always going to be here for you.

Michael: When people sincerely tell you that they care, you are insulting both yourself and your friends when you say that they don't care. Stop this right now, you will never be alone.

Nick (her boyfriend): I think all of you who commented on Eli's status need to realize how mind-numbing watching 6 Saws in a row can be for any one person.

That being said...Eli, the reason you feel everyone as being more vibrant is not because everyone thinks you're grey, but rather because you're terrified of being alone or abandoned.

For all of Eli's friends that were offended, I know that you are all good friends, but try to understand that she doesn't mean to be hurtful. She just needed to shout out her frustration to the world. I'm obviously not a big fan of her using a facebook status as her emotional outlet, but it's just how some people roll. I'd appreciate it if anyone who was hurt by this would keep their indignation at bay for at least a few days. Don't judge Eli based on what she typed when she was at her saddest.

Eli, I'm obviously not going to be awake when you are tomorrow, but we need to talk. I'm not mad at you, but I'm really worried about you. Please try to creep in a sliver of optimism into your life each day, and trust me, jigsaw won't help you find any of that, so no more Saw movies.

Nick (the boyfriend): PS I DISAGREE WITH THIS STATUS

Josh: I know I speak for all of us when I say that we know Eli's not trying to be hurtful. We never judge her, least of all when she's going through a tough time. Part of the reason why we're hurt is because she's hurt; the only thing we want to do is help.

Eli, we love you. Try to be more optimistic. Whenever you need to talk to someone, you know you can talk to me too. We're all here for you.

PS: Jigsaw actually inspired me to be more optimistic. His message is much more hopeful than first glance. If you look at it from his POV, Nick, then you'd get it. He's my favorite anti-hero

Shaina: Just for the record, feelings about this when you first go to college are normal... In fact, it's almost 'expected' and at a lot of college orientation sessions designed specifically for only the parents of future college-students, they'll mention it.

The college itself is a huge bustling place, and it takes some time to find your happy little corner within it -- within your group of friends. I think you have found many friends since being here, and I believe that in time, you'll only find more... and you, too, will settle into something comfortable and capable of being called 'home'. Just hang on for a bit until you find it... and, a lot of the world is how you view it... not necessarily how it is. You think people see you as gray because that's how you think of it. It's not true -- and by people saying, "No, we see you as vibrant!" is their way of saying that they see differently than they think you see... I guess, what I mean is... If you aren't a bit more optimistic, even great things will look depressing to you. You have to develop a good mindset on your own, regardless of what happens.

Just give it a bit more time.

Greg: Ellie, I'm with Shaina. Your going through a tough time but things will work out. Your an incrediably sweet girl who is capable of alot; your pretty, smart, and have an explosive personality of the best kind. Your going to be ok, promise

Eli: I love all of you i just burst out crying wtf

tl;dr: Eli makes me wanna off myself.

[millahh]

Eli needs professional help.

[Super Dude]

She has it.  She just doesn't like talking to the therapist because she's an adult and "doesn't understand."  Apparently Eli just keeps her talking.

[millahh]

Sounds like Eli enjoys being an emo drama queen and doesn't actually want to get better....and therefore needs a kick in the ass.

[Super Dude]

My sentiments exactly.  And I would do it too, if her pity party wouldn't subsequently rain hellfire on me.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

I read the first page of this thread and, while I do agree with how obnoxious people can be, isn't this kind of like being irritated at a cat for doing nothing but eating and sleeping all day?  It's what they do.  Everybody knows this about cats and you knew that when you got a cat.  Feels kinda like the same thing with FB.  Maybe I'm wrong, as I don't have a FB account, but Mrs. Cozmo does and she finds the same irritations sometimes.

There's your problem.  Start with my first Eli status post and keep going.

[millahh]

I've blocked all of the really annoying/emo folks on my FB (well, except Jamesman  ), so I don't have a whole lot to contribute to the thread, or complain about...

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

There's your problem.  Start with my first Eli status post and keep going.

12 pages thus far.  Link?

[ehra]

After reading that big quote from SD I was, for the most part, not really phased. I dealt with more than enough of that stuff that it's stopped bothering me and I just block it out. This, however, sent me into a rage.

JIGSAW IS NOT A FUCKING ANTIHERO.

[Serpentor]

These are from my cousin-in-law, all she does is bitch about her life even though all all extraneous stuff is taking care of (her in-laws fixed her house, her parents maintain the property, clean inside, etc).
She's a high school teacher who started complaining about her job the first week back as well. 
She also coaches volleyball even though she never played it in her life

"HATES being sick HATES it!" -  really, who enjoys being sick......

"so much to do...so little time" - you have plenty of time, you just don't know how to manage it

"hates high school girl drama....ugh!"

"its only Monday?"

"denial is over...ugh hate the last week of August!" - you just had 2 months off, stop bitching

"is glad this week is over...but is bitter that most of her weekend will be dedicated to ...what else....grading. Ah the life of an English teacher."

"oh back to school night...how i hate you"

"is amazed at how bad of a headache listening to 20 girls scream and bounce volleyballs for two hours can give a person :[" - then don't coach volleyball

[Super Dude]

Wow.  It's amazing how pathetic people really are.

[Fluffy Lothario]

I love how everyone is so quick to tell Eli they love her and then Nick comes out with this.
