Selling your soul to the devil

I've noticed people saying they'll donate prizes to charity. On one of the cat food advents loads of people have commented with 'If I won this I'd donate it to <blah> Animal Rescue because they do amazing work and this would really help feed their 6 million cats' type comments. Forgetting in the process that you have to add a certain hashtag to enter. *eye roll*

Spotted: The dad from the "Son married in Michigan" duo!

I've just spotted mum, dad and son on Jaques Vert and to me it looks like it is just the one person entering on 3 accounts as even though worded differently they are all typed out similarly with the space in between sentences.

And this is EXACTLY why I am totally ignoring Face Book for the whole of December

just spotted someone using a photo of an x ray of their dog's tummy, he's just had an operation to remove something so he'd love to win the dog food hamper!

oh yes and something else I saw on advents, someone saying their daughter in law would love to win a scarf for her horse,posting piccy of horse, to which page owner replied : "it's for humans" and so she said sorry I was half asleep I mean for my daughter .Except that account used to enter IS the daughter/daughter in law, she doesn't have a daughter of her own or step daughter, only a son who is still at school!

Someone using a picture of their cannula "having a rubbish day" on Interflora TW, when it just says RT & follow.

not quite sob stories but spotted a comp pointing out you don't need to comment, tag friends or share/retweet to enter just name & email via a form.

Haven't spotted any sob stories but on the bonbon buddies advent calendar selfie posts there's several poor quality out of focus/blurry pics, people leaving a message & photo without the hashtag, one person hashtagging with a pic of their kid sticking their tongue out completely missing that it's meant to be a selfie with one of their advent calendars in the pic.
+ one guys posted twice with the same pic
"Can I please please please have it" 2nd time "Pick me please"

Oh and there's one accidentally hilarious pic of a guy looking miserable holding their advent calendar of an ultra cheery minion.

It's not so much the sob story, but it folk insisting on spelling 'Losing' as 'loosing' :mad:
It's like when someone I know types 'threw' for 'through' and this weekend they were drinking 'larger'
It gets right on my thrup'nies. :mad::p:D:mad:
