It's completely harmless so I'd personally feel it's rather vindictive to moan about it to them, or tell them "you are so annoying I can no longer stand being linked to you on the internet", but I can completely see where people moaning about incessant boring status updates come from!
Couldn't have put it better mate :T0 -
Some people are boring, some aren't.
I have an old friend who comes round to see me every week and tells me the same things every time i see her. She does bore me, sometimes, but i listen to her because she needs to unload on someone, she has huge family and money problems. If i dump her as a friend just because she bores me sometimes, then i'm not much of a friend am i ?
There's a world of difference between you listening to a friend's problems to be there for them, and slating an old friend on an internet forum because you find her motherhood related pictures and status updates "tiresome" :rotfl:0 -
Because we just can't help ourselves!
Off topic, but am I the only one getting thoroughly tired of this whole "yummy mummy" thing?
I mean come on, a name like "lexismummy"?? Is that your whole identity in life, you solely exist as the mother of a child? That is you only reason for existing?
It's like the people who have photos of their kids as their profile picture on Farsebook. Why do people seem to lose their own identity as soon as they have kids?
If she's all wrapped up like a mummy swanning about in one of them posh Lexis cars visiting casinos and whatnot going round like a WAG and can't pay for the cooker SELL THE CAR0 -
