Another good way to get removed from my news feed - farmville, mafia wars, questions, etc...basically any of those applications that send out A MILLION requests for stuff each day. Super annoying. |

Not sure how to do it on a phone, but on your computer you can get FB to remove all Mafia Wars/Farmville/Etc posts from your feed. When you see one, aim your mouse pointer towards the top right of the post. A little X will appear. Click on it. You'll get several options, like "hide all posts from X Person" or "Hide all posts from Mafia Wars." Select your option and poof, bye bye annoying game post or annoying person. I've done that to a lot of games and several people and those preferences stick around on my phone. |

I think it has more to do with people that have no manners, no concept of personal space, privacy and responsibility than Facebook really. Those are the same people that, previous to Facebook, would have been on the telephone to everyone gossiping about what was going on in other people's lives. Those are also the people that I tell NOTHING to because I know it will be spread far and wide! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr |

My personal favourite are adults who use FB to start wars or generally behave like teenagers. Apparently wacko from my old barn is still happily attacking me all over FB...

That is just WRONG! Seriously sometimes I think people stop maturing at the age of 14..... CDE you are right, it is not FB, it is the users and how people utilize it. I guess the internet is just another platform for people to be busybodies/nosey/loud/obnoxious. |

My previous PDA grievances against FB have lessened now that my SIL's overtly schmoopy boyfriend no longer has easy access to Facebook since he is now unemployed and was apparently doing all of his PDA-ing at work. As much as it sucks for the guy to not have a steady job and all that, I can't say I'm sad to not have to see him profess his undying love and affection for my SIL on an hourly basis all over FB. It was like watching people make out right next to you, only in words. |

Oh God I am jealous. My sister and her hubby are worse than ever. He referred to her as "babycakes" the other day on FB.

If my husband ever called me babycakes, there would be hell to pay. OMGIH. Who DOES that?! I am so very glad I am not on FB! |

I still have to read my SIL's PDA to her boyfriend, but it seems that when he's not around to start it she doesn't get nearly as schmoopy. I suppose it's a nice change from her last boyfriend, the slacker with a drug habit, with whom she would get into curse filled arguments on FB. |

I used to get up set, and then I realized that I have the power to turn it off, turn away, un friend, and go ride my horse making my life totally awesome and thereby not giving a hooty tooty about anything going on on FB. And you have that ultimate power too.

The only remaining question: will I be banned for TMI or PDA?
