1: Saying that, I don't like Lurkers and I delete these because they simply have no idea about being social.
2: There's nothing wrong with hyenas, sometimes life is funny!
3: I have no ego about popularity, although I could never cope with having any more "friends" than I do already.
4: I really don't mind those people who play games, just as long as I don't have to know about it.
5: I don't have an experience with the prophet, but even if they did, it's not doing any harm.
6: Thief: well, it's not intellectual property, it's just word of mouth and should be welcomed and encouraged.
7: Cynics attract cynics.
8: Collecting everything is not something I have to worry about.
9: I promote, definately guilty of that, but I no longer tag and wouldn't bother anybody. Facebook is too inconsistant for that at my level. You have to be celebrated before it can truely work the way you want it (RE: Aston Kutcher does fine by this)
10: Liker, well, what's not to like about likers?
11: Hate is nothing to me.
12: Anti-proofreading... I try to note when I make mistakes because I don't want people to think I'm a bad writer. I'm not, just sometimes I type with my iPhone. It ducks! I do happen to be an auto-corrector and a huge misreader of posts. It's never fun to point out mistakes. I got retreeted with a spelling error the other day and I felt terrible! "gave" instead of "have" <--- can often get in the way of a good joke.
13: Oh Woe is me, and my life is awesome: drama kings and queens are just enthusiastic about their life and demonstrate it in a very forward manner. I'm in no way balanced. Some days can be dramatic, other days.. well not so much.
14: Womp Womp people? really, is that the way to think of people who are simply diverse about their sense of humour? Not everything we laugh at has to be funny to everybody... although commenting a running commentary about the thoughts of a toddler throughout 100 photo album pictures is a little "not funny" to read after a while. Caption makers can sometimes be a little sad, but we're all guilty of it some time in our FB life.
15;Okay, the newsies... well I must admit I try not to ever say "ahh, nice cup of tea!" or give mundane details about my day. I try to avoid cliches, but sometimes life is like that. We're not always in an entertaining mood, and in which case, I stay away from making a status. We can't all strive to be interesting all of the time. But what does it matter. You get more from FB posts than you get from most newspapers anyway. Twitter especially has a lot going for it in terms of news and current events. Some people however do get the idea that they are popular enough to "Aston Kutcher" their way through their day... but that's just emulation and promotes self worth. Really, does it matter?
16: And finally, the rooster? Well I really don't see why that's such a bad thing. We are sharing this social network with the world, and sometimes, it's good to know geographically when morning is. It is also a nice ice breaker.
The one thing we seem to do in life is "label" things. People often appear to be placeable in their own categories however, and we shouldn't let the list below be a part of our reasoning for dealing with individuals.
Nobody is perfect.
