20 things you should not post on the FB (Facebook)...
Thursday, August 6, 2009 at 4:39PM 
Have you ever been cruising around the FB reading your friend's status and your jaw dropped? Or you felt embarrassed for them? Ya, that happens to me. So the other night Ash and I were just chillin' and we were spouting off things that should not be posted on the FB. We got stuck around #14 so we enlisted the help of our good friend Ryan. Some of these are real and some are not, but here are the best ones that we came up with:
- Detailed descriptions about your bowel movements...I mean REALLY!?!?!
- Vague life experiences with no conclusions... what does that even mean?
- Misquoted Bible verses...BibleGateway.com, YouVersion.com or the Bible are great places to check your references.
- Relationship drama...because airing your "stuff" on a social networking site is not going to help the situation any...
- Descriptive details about your child's bowel movements...See #1...
- How much your iPhone or Apple product sucks...let's be honest, there is nothing that sucks about Apple.
- "I'm falling asleep"...just go to sleep...
- The fact that you have to "Wash off last night..."...muah bluaggh...I just puked in my mouth...
- "Man, it's HOT!!!"...we know...
- Your countdown to Vegas.
- Photos from said trip to Vegas.
- How much you hate your job...
- How tired you are...I'm tired, you're tired, we're all tired...see #7
- Vague details about the fun you're having with the intention to make others jealous...that's just mean...
- Single word updates
- Publishing your quiz results... Do you really care what type of jean you are? Or what your name should have been? C'mon...
- Your cell phone number...that's not safe...
- Twitter status updates that include @twitter_name...Oh, wait...I do that...
- Publishing anything that has to do with online food fights, joining my mafia family, etc...
- "Someone for the love of God find me a man....or I'm gonna end up living in a van full of cats..."

1. Who you slept with... We don't want to know.
2. How sleeping with that person went
3. If you are playing hooky from work don't post that, your boss can read just
as well as the rest of us.
Ditto the bowel movements and Twitter updates, but I'm not picky about the rest of it. I hate those apps that disguise themselves as something relevent! That's soooo lame!
After surfing FB for some inspiration, here is what I came up with:
1) "Private discussions" that you think are private, but really end up being PUBLIC for all your friends to read because they're posted on your wall...awkward!
2) Naked pictures of your children...doesn't matter how young, it just shouldn't be in your album for me to stumble across
3) Status updates in Norwegian...really more of a bummer for me since I never learned the language :-)
That's what I got.

1. Pictures of you breastfeeding
2. Using every app that FB has and posting it.
3. Complaining about things you can control but choose not to and post it so people feel sorry for you.
I should win just for providing the one about "Find me a man". However, it was way funnier in it's original form.
1. Even if you don't post the pics yourself, don't be put yourself in situations that you wouldn't want yourself tagged by other people
2. Posting anything that will make your close friends feel rejected that they didn't get invited. It's not worth the drama.
3. Gushing sappy crap about your BF or GF
I would like to add....naked pictures of a newborn don't count.
1. posting about going to the Gym. that's awesome your more motivated than everyone else, haha, I promise nobody will care if you worked out. Pat yourself on the back, cause nobody wants to. just sayin'.
2. Telling your friends your too tired to hang out, and then posting that your having so much fun hanging out with your other friends. nobody likes a liar :)
3. "Working from Home" and then posting anything having to do how much fun wakeboarding is :P. Have to be extra careful about that lol.
1. People spamming contests that are on their blogs :P
2. Gossiping about how others are gossiping.
3. Naked kids, also including newborns. Barefeet are acceptable however.
I especially like Ryan's about invitations that make your friends feel rejected. My top 3:
1. Your wife's weight
2. Your wife's age
3. Telling your kids its dinner time
Never put pictures of your car on Facebook when it's out for repossession!! Lol
