"well what can I say" and other social media pet peeves.

[GrumpyNovember]

I'm wondering what else annoys people about social media?
I've noticed an increase on Facebook (I don't use others) of people starting a post with: "Well, what can I say?" This isn't the Oscars, buddy — this is a post about Remembrance Sunday.
"Admin please delete if not aloud" (their spelling, not mine).
"Need gone." Usually when on one of those local giving pages and it's 7pm at night wanting it gone that night.

Yes I find this perplexing and irritating. I’ve wondered if it’s because of the vocal habit of finishing a sentence with rising intonation, as though it is a question.

There is a woman on our local FB and she just posts absolutely everything in her brain and ‘does anyone know’ YES, GOOGLE KNOWS

Examples

do you know how many spaces are in X car park and am I likely to get one at 10am?

Does anywhere round here sell AA batteries?

Does Anyone know the train times?

Does Anyone know how I can get my fire stick TV remote to work?

Does anyone know what’s the best path to walk on in the mornings down the road?

Does anyone know what time the sun sets?

😂😂😂

not a week goes by without someone on the local FB page asking for recommendations for a Sunday roast, when they could have typed that into a search on the group. They always get 20 different answers, probably from purveyors of Sunday roasts, so not even helpful

Coming back to add another one - birthday wishes to dead people.

I don't mind the 'happy heavenly birthday' ones, it's this type of one that is not my cup of tea:

Happy birthday grandad, you would have been 115 today.

*I don't own the rights to this music'

Yeah Karen from Shrewsbury we did not assume you went back in time to ask Elvis his permission.

A Vinted pet hate of mine is "selling due to weight loss" 🙄Nicely combining a not-so-humblebrag with a subtle hint that you're a big fat heifer because you still need jeans in that size.

Oh god, this. Just walk into the kitchen and tell them to their face 🙄

What makes my toes curl is when it’s me that’s in being called “lovely” as though it’s my name. “Hello lovely are we going out on Saturday”

And it seems compulsory to end every message with xx
