After researching and taking an office-wide poll we have come up with a list of our top 5 Facebook habits that tend to make some of us hit the “dislike” button. Are you guilty of any of these annoying habits?
- Automated responses and updates – Everyone doesn’t need to know how well you are doing on Song Pop, your daily horoscope or what song you are listening to every minute, of every day. We get it- you are a music buff.
- Birthday thank you – According to our friends at WNCI, you are not supposed to jump on your wall halfway through your birthday and thank your friends for the Birthday shout-out. It screams…”I want more well wishes”. Wait until the day’s end and you have had your last margarita, then say “thank you”. Well, okay- maybe your first margarita. Did we mention…never drink too much and Facebook?
- One word status updates– Tired. Hungry. Mad. OMG! Is. That. All. You. Have. To. Say? #fail
- Too many pictures of your children or pets – Yes, they are adorable and everyone can tell you love them but we don’t need to see pictures of them every single day. Word to the wise…once a week will do.
- Constantly updating with what you are doing or where you are or how you are feeling– Everyone doesn’t need to know your workout routine or where you went to breakfast, or how bad your migraine seems to be. Worse yet- “time of the month” updates and bathroom habits need to be left between you and well, YOU!
Now we know you have a few of your own Facebook Don’ts! Tell us what makes you turn off your Facebook friends?
