Quizzes

We don’t care what planet you are, what your weight should be, how long you can last in a zombie movie or when Kanye West will interrupt you.

Mafia Wars

Do we have to say anything? DISLIKE!

FarmVille

And we thought Mafia Wars were bad. Mafia Wars were the annoying, occasional update from your college roommate’s boyfriend that you tried to ignore. But FarmVille! We don’t care that you successfully delivered a breach goat or harvested your first row of corn (or whatever it is you do on there). In fact, this isn’t even dislike; it’s outright hatred. Violent, overwhelming, fierce loathing.

Suggestions

Some of us like to become fans of our favorite restaurants, Web sites and publications. We do not, however, want all of our "friends" brow-beaten on an hourly basis into doing the same. Our friends in New York, L.A. or Mobile, AL do not want to become a "fan" of a restaurant they’ve never heard of and, frankly, we don’t want them to be urged on our behalf. Dislike!

Conversations on a Status

Especially when you’ve made a comment and keep getting notifications of a conversation that holds no meaning for you. Seriously, pick up the phone or send an email.

Old Photos from High School and Earlier

There’s a reason why the past stays buried.

A Baby as Your Profile Picture

Is this your Facebook page or your baby’s? When innocently stalking our former classmates, we need to know we have the right person. We get it, your baby is cute, but cut the cute, we’ve got stalking to do. This also holds true for dogs or using your own childhood picture.

Poking

Try poking me in real life and see what happens.

Constant Status Updates

You know the people: "Jane Doe is riding her bike; now I’m feeding the baby; now I’m taking a bath; now I’m driving to the store; now I’m selecting cereal; Cheerios or Raisin Bran?" We’ve got news for you; you’re not doing any of those things. You’re on Facebook. A lot. And that’s pretty lame.

Facebook’s Constant Revamping

Stop d***ing around with the site just when we are getting used to it.
