The worst cases of oversharing you’ve seen on social media (lighthearted)

In my case a friend of mine took a picture of a bunch of tissues on her bedside table and posted it onto FB with the caption ‘The sign of a good night. I’m shagged’.

Also on Facebook - guy posts a picture of his back, covers in scratches with the caption ‘no wonder she’s pregnant’

Oh lord. Another oversharer tonight (who shared all about her cheating on husband and leaving him and how crap he was in the sack and how her new man who she left husband for is the exact opposite and the love of her life and how she's never felt like this.... " ) etc has signed up to an MLM company literally this week.

So tonight, they've written out a full - in depth and in painful detail' a conversation they "had" with their school kids teacher who - in a pandemic where they're lucky if they're allowed in the playground never mind into the school - couldn't wait to come out and talk to her.

Long story short : her kid is the best in the school and amazes all the teachers in the entire building - not just her - by how calm and awesome they are.... oh by the way, I couldn't help but tell you, mum, your hair is amazing! the cut and the colour are just so you and your make up is perfect and it's so nice to see you looking your absolute best and treating yourself. More women should do that too!!!


Yeah....... sure, Jan! And it all just so happened to be ever since you signed up to be CEO Boss Woman Super Mum Business Owner!!! this week and bought your first items to try pressure everyone who has ever made eye contact with into buying!

As a teacher, I can tell you that we regularly tell parents how amazing their hair and makeup is! Obviously... Wink Grin

Of course you do! I bet you're all lining up to buy the not at all crap and stupidly overpriced items that she uses to make it look so incredible too. Totally legit. 👍🏻

Of course! I love me a bit of shitty makeup sold by a #BossBabe hun bot. It adds to the overall look.

Someone I know went to Turkey for her breast implants to be redone and to have a tummy tuck. Apparently it was the same hotel/surgery that a couple of women having bum lifts died at just before. She was on the plane 2 days after the surgery, posting that she was bumped up to first class as the flight attendant could see how much pain she was in.

Back in the UK, we had daily (if not hourly) updates of her infections and the treatment she had to have to suck the pus out of the wound 🤮If anyone dared make a comment about getting work done on the cheap and expecting the NHS to fix it for free, she'd post a rant about unsupportive people, how she's paid in all her life (yeah but your scumbag kids always breaking the law and being in and out of prison more than cancels that out!), and then she'd block them. I blocked her in the end, just before she sold her story to some rag paper to 'raise awareness so other people didn't make the same mistake' - despite her knowing about the two people dying at the same place only a few weeks before

Best one I have at the moment daily updated photo of their dogs wanky dinner bowl complete with description raw liver, tuna fish, avocado, green beans, mushrooms picked by virgins, cucumbers from a spring up a mountain in Austria. Ok it’s better than what I feed my children but do piss off.

Can I also add my mad SIL? Her only posts are either about being at the gym at 6am for it opening? Photos of her breakfast or lunch being some green pond slime smoothie or climbing a mountain. She’s always into the latest fad. She won’t post anything about her children or grand-daughter as she doesn’t want anyone to know her age as she trying to convince everyone she’s about 35 Grin

Just thought of one from a couple of years ago.

Girl I knew in school, had major issues unfortunately. Wealthy family. Family "threw her out" for reasons unknown.

Saga was played out v. publicly.

One day she put up a bathroom selfie of herself stark naked, covering her boobs with one hand, "for awareness". It was awful and I felt bad for her. I've met her since and she's actually nice, but I can never unsee that Confused

I can’t decide what’s worse, the “oh I can’t believe it” “it only happens to me” “not again” statuses which lead to “pm me hun” responses, or the ones where they go into detail about their breakup and how their partner was a useless father (yet they had multiple kids with them), and they are glad to be shot of them, only for them to be back together by the end of the week

Yes I have both of those on my timeline! Along with the one who’s ALWAYS ill

I once had someone give us a daily update on what her DC had done in the potty that day, photos every time too.

This was in a group rather than their page but also had someone TTC who would post pictures of bloody tampons, pads or tissues and ask if we thought it was period blood or implantation blood every month for about a year until she finally conceived (and didn't have any implantation bleeding to show us.)

Another friend came home from a weekend away and put up a small photo album, but accidentally added a photo of her giving her DH a blowjob as the last photo.

I bet a load of these people refuse to have the Covid vaccine because "there's something in it the government can use to track you/spy on you", all the while oversharing BJ pics and close-ups of their gerbil's anal fistula - with no sense or irony whatsoever...Hmm Wink

Yes, it's like the people who are paranoid about the covid vaccine but they were quite happy to bang street drugs up their arms.

It did eventually get taken down but I don't know if it was her or Facebook, she never replied to anyone that told her, I don't blame her though as it must have been so embarrassing when she realised.

When my mother died, my nephew announced it on Facebook Cue all of his friends and acquaintances offering condolences to him. I don’t know why but it really upset me. I am glad that he received empathy but it felt like a violation of my grief

I don't get what's wrong with that. I share aerial hoop and pole fitness photos, just as I would of any other sport 🤷🏽‍♀️
It's not sleazy or inappropriate and it's bloody hard work!
