If Facebook Had A “F*CK OFF” Button
Hey Facebook! I know you’re busy trying to break into the cell phone market, but could you please divert some time into making this happen first?
GAWD DAMN! I need this button badly. Just thinking about it is enough to make me pee and poop myself silly with glee. My productivity would go down, but my Facebook usage would go way up because I’d be on it 24/7 and partying like an awesomely awesome passive-aggressive Facebook-hater-drunk-on-Haterade of awesomeoness!
And I already know which posts I would use it on most.
Sick-Baby Posts
I can’t draw, so you’re going to have to imagine the black tornado of death is a picture of a sick baby.
I hate these…Well no, sorry, I don’t hate them. What I feel is actually worse than hate, but there isn’t a word to describe it so I’ll just go with hate^hate. That’s right: hate to the power of hate. And what’s not to hate^hate, people? Some asshat got a picture of a sick and/or dying baby that has a breathing tube in its mouth (cleft lip), an IV in its right arm (left one was amputated), and is surrounded by ominous-looking monitors and medical equipment.
Freakin’ Stevie Wonder could look at that picture and would know immediately that the poor kid needs a doctor or two. I mean, it’s not like there’s anything in there that screams, “The spring of eternal life is here!” You can’t help but feel sympathy for the little guy, and you’re going to at least hope he gets the care he needs.
But then you read the next sentence and your hopes are trampled by a herd of rabid wildebeests…
And then some sort of bullsh*t quote is thrown in at the end because the poster really wants to sound deep and thoughtful, and not like the attention-hungry douchebag he really is.
Oooh! Three exclamation marks? Now I’m even more inspired…
…To tell you to F*CK OFF!!!
First of all, if you’re going to rely on these types of posts to get “Likes” then you might as well just say, “Please ‘Like’ my post because I need copious amounts of attention to validate my existence.” That’s the message the Sick-Baby Post gives off anyway, but at least you’re upfront about your douchebaggery. I’d actually be more likely to “Like” the upfront post because I find honesty refreshing.
Secondly, how retarded are you for thinking the rest of us are so retarded that we can’t see through the sheet o’ sh*t you’re trying to pull?
No, really, how the hell would this scenario make any sense?
And this scenario doesn’t make sense either!
Who the f*ck is this doctor? Dr. Pepper? Doc Martens? Oops…almost got caught being a motherf*cker who forgot about (Dr.) Dre!
No one is buying your sorry excuse for altruism, dumb ass, so either post something worthy of the “Likes” you so desperately need to survive or F*CK OFF!
TIRED-ASS QUOTES
I’d probably be a lot more receptive to Tired-Ass Quote posts if the quotes weren’t so tired-ass, i.e., they weren’t the same ones that were already posted millions of times over. Seriously, if you built your world around Facebook, you’d think the Bible only consisted of the book of Genesis, ten Psalms, and pages with nothing but one-liners or “Moses” written all over the place. You’d also believe Gandhi was the only person who ever said anything inspirational, and that Romeo and Juliet was Shakespeare’s only play. Another way to put it: If you played a drinking game where you took a shot of Mike’s Hard Lemonade every time someone posted a tired-ass quote between the hours of 8 a.m. and 9 a.m., you would die of alcohol poisoning. Alcohol poisoning from Mike’s Hard Lemonade, people, a beverage in which the only thing hard about it is the bottle it came in!
You know what quotes I’d like to see? Engrish ones—like, the really bad, doesn’t-make-any-sense English that’s haphazardly thrown onto Asian products. The best ones I’ve ever come across were on fireworks labels. Don’t tell you me you wouldn’t be all over my page-nuts if I put up something like this:
Get some new quotes or F*CK OFF!
Honorable Mention: “So True!” Comments on Tired-Ass Quote Posts
It’s only two words, but it’s still tired as hell…and that’s “So true!”
PICTURES OF FOOD
No one gives a sh*t about what you’re eating, so spare us the photos of your breakfast sandwich, the apple you had for lunch (especially if you’ve got some pathetic caption like, “My sad-ass lunch! ” because if you can work a cell phone, you can grab something to go along with that apple, okay?), the candy you had as a snack, and whatever the hell else you ate throughout the day. No one gives a sh*t about what you’re eating, period.
The only time someone might remotely give a sh*t is if you’re eating an ice cream sundae made of Chupacabra blood and has Tyrion Lannisters dancing on top of it because (1) who wouldn’t love some Tyrion Lannister on ice cream? No one, obviously, and (2) that would be a f*cked up sundae that most people have probably never seen before (unless they live near a Mexican drug town).
But the ice cream sundae you posted a picture of isn’t made of Chupacabra blood, is it? And it doesn’t look like there are any Tyrion Lannisters dancing on top of it, does it? No, it’s just regular ice cream topped with some sort of regular syrup, regular nuts, regular whipped cream and a regular cherry—i.e., the same f*cking sundae everyone else has seen many times before.
I get it. Some people may be thinking “But this sundae was huge!” or “This is how they do sundaes in Vegas!”—but to them I say, “F*CK OFF!” No Chupacabra blood ice cream + no dancing Tyrion Lannisters = no giving a sh*t!
*sigh* The dream that Facebook might let us have a F*CK OFF button is one that will never come true, so I guess I’m going to have to rely on the next best thing:

Ugh…it’s just not the same…
Comments (22)
Although, I do enjoy sometimes looking at food. >__>
I read something recently that the “share and like this blah blah blah” posts were mostly used by pages to collect people’s information. They create the page, everyone shares/likes a picture, then they sell all those names to a company. Don’t know the truth behind it, but it makes a lot more sense than any of the purported reasons behind those damn photos.
I have some animal rescues err animal lovers and political pushers…I believe the latter are the worst. I mean can’t you see why Obama is the devil or how the Republicans are ruining everything?
hahaha I laughed so hard at that motherf*ckr who forgot about dre line… and the angry kitty >:)
maybe if this post gets 10000 recs facebook WILL make a f*ck off button?
Everyone knows food pics are stupid…and yet, they keep doing it.
I can’t agree with the pictures of food, because I do that all the time. Hell, I have an entire album devoted to the food I’ve had.
@whotakethmycoke - likewise!
LOL. Truth.
ugh reading this made me so hungry for a tyrion lannister sundae!!
don’t you ever fuck off – this campaign could change the face of blogging
hahaha
RAmen!! The vapidness is breathtaking.
I took a picture of my lovely lasagna but haven’t posted on any social network sites….YET. Hahaha.
Totally understand your viewpoint.
Some people may be foodie (there are some nicely decorated food out there), and when traveling, food is a big attraction.
You have outdone yourself with the humor and artistic ability.
I just browse through quickly of their post and not give a 2nd thought.
I will admit, I fell for the sick baby thing once or twice when I first started getting into Facebook. Rookie mistake.
Unfriending or unliking is a pretty good “fuck off” button.
I agree with most of this. Some Facebook posts are definitely by-products of very attention-seeking behavior. I’m sort of torn since my wife does post food pics when we go out to restaurants.
Haha. You definitely covered everything that’s wrong with Facebook.
I get irritated with my contact’s sola pictures on facebook. she’s so naive and narcisstic. She tells everybody about what’s going on with her life as if we are all interested… Fuck off button should be added. Facebook would be more appealing with that feature..lol.
evil hexing walnut is made of win, and remember: cumulus clouds! always!
So true.
lol jk.
It’s like you read my mind…
