Honestly - this shite turned up on my FB today. The text is one thing but why a picture of a fucking minion?
Text like this alongside some picture of a waterfall, trees, a unicorn or some shit is fine but a Minion? I've not seen the film but I understand that they are a comedy character - not the kind of thing to put alongside this kind of text. They haven't even changed the fucking text as it mentions a rose.

I personally can't stand all this public displays of emotion, maybe I'm just old, but this stuff is the living end.

And relax.

Oh god yes, it does irritate me, what the hell have minions got to do with it! Some of the poems are quite cheesy.

Yup gets me too

Minions are being misappropriated. They are happy beings. Only to be used for happy things. They are yellow. Not green or black. YANBU in this case.

Other than that, I don't mind an odd Minion turning up if its pithy.

If it's funny I don't mind so much, but this 'Look at me I'm grieving. LOOK AT ME!!!' posts with something as glib as minions on just makes me cross.

I'm mean. I point out mistakes like My Brother Has The Best Sister ever! Me! With a picture of Margo jumping for joy. I pointed out that she doesn't have brothers.

Since I blocked all the sites that the minion quotes come from there are three of my fb friends that never show up on my news feed any more.

I have two things blocked on FB.

Minions and Britain First.

Have yet to decide which is more wanky.

Blocking "minion quotes" page helps hugely.

Mumberjack · 10/10/2015 17:33

Oh I hate them! Every time I see one I think to myself, the films would be passive aggressive bullshit if that was their actual dialogue.

Pipbin · 10/10/2015 17:33

I had no idea that you could block all this bollocks.
