Rather than "ok here goes," I am not a huge fan of the faux-reluctant intros like "Seems like everyone is doing this so I guess I must," or "apparently this is a thing now," or "I'm a sheep, baaa..."

Silence is ALWAYS an option. It's fine if you don't weigh in on everything.

I liked guessing my close irl friends lists who've I'd seen a bunch of said listed concerts with. It seems like basically another form of "guess my fav..." friendship test. I KNOW U LOVE PURPLE AND ALSO WE SAW DISTURBED TOGETHER LOL!

I appreciate the ones where they put in a band you'd think they wouldn't have gone to see

which is most of the ones i've seen, facebook friends reminiscing about seeing hasil adkins and liberace or whatever. i get why people are annoyed by it but at the same time i'm not, particularly since the whole thing is basically over already.

This 'spot the ringer in my concert list' sounds exactly like what used to be called a parlor game, but transposed to a billion member social network.

Karl Marx (1818–1883) was a frequent dumb crambo player with his wife and daughters in their North London home.[5]

so did the woman in the photo just magically appear on a mist-shrouded hillside?

or did she pay the bills provided by, for example, an airline and a tour company in order to get there?

and the money she spent on those bills, did that come from exchanging her time and skills for payment?

my annoying co-worker keeps sharing memes from "marriage memes" and i want to do violence to her

I am terrible at marriage; it clearly involves lots more arguments about folding towels than I have managed

that is a rich vein of garbage content alright

My story is a bit different:
Him: where do you want to eat?
ME: I don't care, you choose...and he did...and we ate wherever he chose!
....the next time...
ME: where do you want to eat?
Him: I don't care, you choose..
ME: ok...let's go to Applebee's
Him: I don't want to drive all the way down there...do you?
ME: YES...I knew where it was when I said I wanted to go there!
Him: well, I don't want to go there..
ME: well then, where do you want to go?
Him: I don't care...you choose
THAT'S HOW THE FIGHT STARTED...

ME: Now I am divorced and I eat where I damned well please!

^My wife will from time to time do annoying stuff like that, but she has enough sense to see it's annoying when I point it out to her. We are still married.

if you can't agree you have to go to applebees
that way, no future disagreements because nearly anything is acceptable if it means dodging applebees

Overly inclusive Mother's Day posts are grating on me today. I mean I think the sentiment of including people who want to be mothers but can't, people who lost their children etc is very good. But "women who have chosen not to become mothers" IDGI. It's fine to choose not to have kids, but that's not what Mother's Day is for. We might as well also include fathers, men who have chosen not to have kids, little girls who are too young to have kids, etc. Also "women who have difficult relationships with their mothers." JFC! It's called Mothers Day! It's not about you!

I would support Facebook giving you an option to blot out unseen every single post that mentions either of the parent holidays tbh.

tbh the "history of mother's day" crap is horrible, who gives a shit, just celebrate mothers

if you investigate the true history it's actually about temperance or mothers who lost kids in war or the mother of all wars or something
