What's with these things all over facebook lately? No, they're not harder than we think, they're easy, and this is a stupid thing to post...

I don't see it on facebook myself but I guess that's why you don't add random people.

And they always have 100k + comments to them too. Name a fish that is not a trout. Is 2 greater than 1? Name a word that doesn't end in "zygb" etc. etc.

Yes I've been getting that shit too. They're easy but I don't get what the sudden craze is all about. Pretty stupid if ya ask me but I guess it's just harmless tomfoolery.

"Like" if you want to cure cancer. If this post gets 1 million likes, cancer will be cured.

Notice also how they are all started by businesses. I wonder what information they can get from FB by having you comment on one of their posts?

Those are annoying, but I take it a step further and think that all the stupid image sharing on Facebook is getting really annoying. I want to check up with friends and family, not view stupid "words of wisdom" that come from who-knows-where. But try to find an effective way to tell all your friends to stop sharing that crap. Yeah, not going to happen.

It's all a marketing scheme to get your name out there. Last one I saw was an insurance company in some southern state. Had like 20,000 comments on it. All it does is get their name out there, for free, at the cost of morons.

My mother in law shared one. I think this is what aging housewives do with their time.

wah wah, I think I'm special but I'm just your typical average antisocial internet geek who whine and hate anything mainstream. While others just ignore it and move on, I make a big deal out of it to show how much I am better than them. Oh noes FB, oh noes friends, oh noes having fun, oh noes people.

There's certainly nothing wrong with me for sure. I myself am perfect, and I'm a blast at parties.

Git off ma lawn.

I'm not whining and I didn't start the thread, I was just sharing my experience because it was pertinent to the discussion. I can and do ignore useless posts on Facebook. If the same person posts them too much, I can hide them from my news feed. Not a big deal.

When you think about it, that comic posted above is really nothing more than just another comment/reply to one of those stupid "memes". Except the author spend a lot more time writing his up than the random FB user who said one or two words.

It's shocking to some but the best way to deal with this stuff is to ignore it completely. You want something to go away but you bring it up to discuss it? How does that work?

I didnt say I wanted it to go away. Just asking "what was up" with it. Chill.

I hardly made a big deal of it. Notice the "harmless" in my post?
