You know what I find really creepy? When I'm Facebook friends with someone who died and I get a birthday notification for them.

You would think that Facebook and the like would have a better system for marking users as deceased, but then I guess that people would abuse it if they did.

Or when they post something. I've seen it happen. Game notifications and likes. I'm guessing some of that stuff might be automated like certain games might have something on a timer that then gives you an achievement or something. That or heaven is not as fun as we think and they're still glued to their phones up there playing Candy Crush. :p

But ya you'd think there would be a way to set a person as deceased in FB. Maybe it could be something you setup when you're alive, like you mark someone as a family member and only those people can mark you as deceased and at least 3 of them have to do it, or something.
