    Its a slight bit off topic as not really Xmas but my personal hates on Facebook posts are the 'Been awake since 4.30am, cant sleep' posts.

    Not surprising if you insist on taking a selfie at 4.30am!

    Closely followed by those that say 'I'm fuming' or 'Really upset' when you know the poster is just waiting for the 'What's up hun' type replies to appear.

    But do you know all their friends ...

    It's like those old public health information films on STDs. You sleep with one person without protection, that person's slept with two people without protection ...

    Remember the principle of six degrees of separation? We've all had sex with at least one of the presidents of the USA :eek:





    I'm not a criminal, but apart from a very few incidents I would guess that stalking friends of friends on facebook for their posts, then trying to locate their address before committing a burglary is less efficient (and much less common) than identifying richer neighbourhoods, walking round to know the area and then taking advantage of the opportunities people leave like not closing a window properly or the remoteness from a road.

    :T this! And don't forget the people that put that they are at A&E and just wait for people to ask what's up. Attention seeking at it's finest!

    Their friends can't see my posts, as I don't post with privacy set to "friends of friends", so I'm not sure what you're getting at here.
