My roommate (who admits to stalking her friends on facebook) always gets so agitated when she finds out that one of her friends (former or current) has posted that their either engaged or having a kid. Like last week she came home fussing about how two of her friends posted on facebook that they are not engaged. Then she went on and on how she doesn't want to see a dozen pictures of the engagement ring on facebook.
And don't get her started about baby announcements. She's happy when she finds out that someone is expecting but then she complains about when people put ultrasound pictures up as their profile picture. For some reason she finds these distasteful. Personally they don't offend me, but everyone is different.
I get that these updates/posts might hurt her a little as a single woman with a job that she sometimes loath. These just kind of emphasize the singlensss which I get since I'm neither married/engaged/pregnant. I just think its funny that she lets these things annoy her so much.
What annoys you on facebook? Is there anything that really agitates you?

The things that really annoy me are the thousands and thousands of game requests, to play these facebook games, yet i don't play that Many facebook games maybe 1 or 2 if i'm really bored, but getting thousands and thousands for several different games and it is really really annoying!

Hi Vjenkins, Facebook showing list of people who "you might know" is really one i dont like. It does have friends friends or strangers in the list. And it annoys me to see some others in that list whom we never know.

Yes I also hate facebook because lot of games request and application are received. So most of the time I am disturbed and many unknown friends sent the request. I like orkut.

Well, what is annoying on Facebook is that you learn to hate the people you know. Your friend is a great example of that. Also, Facebook brings all kinds of drama, like stalking exes or ex-friends doing word war. I guess it can't be helped though. If worse comes to worse, you can always deactivate or cancel your account. :)

I don't stay long in Facebook nowadays that's why I'm not annoyed that much. What irritates me and makes me wonder sometimes are the real time update of friends. I just think that they may be jeopardizing their security by sharing much even if their profiles can only be seen by friends. However, it's their choice and I always remind myself that it's none of my business

Also, I don't want people adding you as friends even if you personally don't know that person. I don't make it a big deal though and don't just add them

It rally annoy me when I see how much some good friends have changed and the "intellectual" messages they leave. They think they are better and more mature than everyone and don't realize that they look so fake. That is why I recently made a cleanup to my friends list. :)
