People who don't like me but subscribe to me told their friend that I was bashing her on Facebook.<br /><br />I wasn't bashing anyone. I got a nasty gram that felt like a physical slap in the face and I couldn't even bother getting upset, because it's all so silly.<br /><br />I'm forty about to turn forty one and I'm sorry to say that it doesn't end. There are just those people who believe everything is about them and it's an attack.<br /><br />I've learned to laugh about it and then I talk about on Facebook so everyone else can laugh too.<br /><br />LOL - I wonder if they figured out how to unsubscribe to me yet.Kimberly Gauthier, Dog Nutrition Blogger for Keep the Tail Wagginghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07021211954887075184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998392453589309507.post-41725671092529948132012-03-28T09:51:47.392-07:002012-03-28T09:51:47.392-07:00My fb friends are clearly not as interesting as yo...My fb friends are clearly not as interesting as yours.

That's a stiff punishment.<br /><br />The other things all sound nice though. Maybe I'll go be snotty on facebook so I can feel better about taking a nap.<br /><br />I hide obnoxious people quite regularly. The other day I realized there was almost nothing happening in my facebook stream for a long time. I checked and, sure enough, I had more than half my friends hidden.

I understand that we all have bad days, and I'm the kind of person that when I need help I'm going to ask for it, and FB is one place where I can ask ALL my friends if they can help me through a tough time. But people who are CONSISTENTLY complaining about life, and how terrible everything is, I just un-friend them, because I can't take it.<br /><br />Great Post, Jenna :-)Darci Colehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06538030983295752993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998392453589309507.post-46493105132351131512011-10-19T15:45:44.779-07:002011-10-19T15:45:44.779-07:00I agree with this so much except I hate yo gabba g...I agree with this so much except I hate yo gabba gabba!

Not my best FB moment and still suffering the family awkwardness consequence from it 4-1/2 months later. <br />I've started to wonder sometimes as I'm typing a reply if I'm being a one-upper so then since I can't figure out how to reply without mentioning myself (I don't want everyone to think I'm a narcissist after all) and I can't so then I just don't comment at all. Then again, I do have 2 FB accounts, 1 Twitter account, 1 +google account, and 2 blog accounts.... so who am I kidding?

Along those lines, I once wrote a blog post about a tough day with my kids (then 3, 2, and 6 months), and someone commented, "Sounds like your three are as tough as my one." It took me a good five reads before I understood, because I just couldn't believe someone would say something so incredibly rude!janaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00051039427781716343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998392453589309507.post-79574952664501106692011-10-18T17:58:30.951-07:002011-10-18T17:58:30.951-07:00holy crap I am laughing so hard because this is SO...holy crap I am laughing so hard because this is SO TRUE! so so so true! ah, love it! <br /><br />you have a new follower for sure!!!!!!<br /><br />xo,<br />ashley<br /><a href="http://www.adventuresofnewlyweds.com" rel="nofollow"> Adventures of Newlyweds </a>Ashley Slaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15531572734350536917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998392453589309507.post-17735740956655558582011-10-18T17:49:20.044-07:002011-10-18T17:49:20.044-07:00@Ashley: Can you imagine what it'd be like if ...@Ashley: Can you imagine what it'd be like if we did that in real life?
