I have a friend who posts "Here I am on my lovely holiday with my lovely family in my lovely hotel" with pics

and then 20 people go "Oh how lovely babezzz, you deserve it, enjoy" and "love your pics, love you miss you" etc

and I think they are sycophantic lying shitbags and my dc think they are a bit odd but I am a horrible misery.

I'm not, am I?

perhaps they can pierce children's ears with their canines - more hygienic than Claires and everyone would be happy

Maybe we need Person and Dog parking spaces, just to really ramp up the drama.

Just looked on fb and saw no sycophantic shit just lots of dull earnest stuff- Thisleads me to believe if I were a dog I would therefore hide my vomit under a nice tidy pile of leaves. Richard Madeleine would go back to it time and time again.

Thisisaeuphemism · 29/05/2013 21:35

Aww Richard Madeleine

The only time I ever got a 'you deserve it babe' was when I got a new kitchen.
I am not sure what that means.

Fox shit smells more like shit than any other type of shit. It's utterly shite

usualsuspect · 29/05/2013 21:35

Yes, P & D parking spaces.

What a thread that would be.

Lioninthesun · 29/05/2013 21:36

I had to laugh the other day when someone I know changed their profile pic to one of those cheesy quotes. It was 'sometimes you have to burn a bridge to keep the crazies from following you' - no word of a lie, this is possibly the most crazy person I know.
Oh the irony!

Arf at poor puffy Judy.

I have just checked my FB feed until I got bored, no one has ever told me I deserved anything other than a hangover on my birthday

cornypedicure · 29/05/2013 21:37

AIBU to allow my dog to eat mince going around the supermarket?

Thisisaeuphemism · 29/05/2013 21:37

I could not be more insulted than if someone said you deserve it about a new kitchen!

usualsuspect · 29/05/2013 21:38

I'm lucky if I get a like on my FB bastards

Hullygully · 29/05/2013 21:38

I have a fb friend who has converted to a "be you in the now" faith

it is beyond fab because you get to ignore dc and dh and all that boring old shit and just "be"

I'm not sure how much they are enjoying her new faith

Unless judy said it. Then I'd be pleased. Was it judy?

"sometimes you have to burn a bridge to keep the crazies from following you"

Blush I quite like that.

Hullygully · 29/05/2013 21:40

I've just checked. She has posted a video (is that still a valid word?) of her dancing wildly in the Now.

BigStickBIWI · 29/05/2013 21:42

Nobody tells me I'm gawjuss or I deserve it.

Clearly I need new friends.

Hullygully · 29/05/2013 21:42

She also puts terribly raw and personal stuff on there about her jpourney into the Now, I want to tell her not to, but I think she needs ot shrive.

It is weird. I'm new to FBI, and after looking at the many many sycophantic posts of friends of friends I thought I'm either not a very nice person because I would NEVER tell someone they 'deserved' a new kitchen or these people are either a) arse licking b) self promoting or c) high school mean girls being sarky bitches. None of which are particularly good attributes to have so think I'll just go with ignore. I am intrigued by it though hully. Wtf is a sycophants motivation?

Hullygully · 29/05/2013 21:42

Hey Beeeweeee babezzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Thank you gertrude. You get it.

What the fuck is dancing in the Now? Should know if I'm going to be the new Sarah Lund of the FBI.
