SNS creature

E-mail Print PDF
On the very face of it Facebook sucks and big time too.. It’s just another wannabe, me-too meaningless website that gives losers worldwide a feeling of importance because they have all these “virtual friends”. Although my girl and myself are not on Facebook, we sat down over the last weekend, togther in the virtual world over webcam hook up and anal-yzed the various types of Facebook creatures and we put together a list that we plan to put up on every forum in the next few months. So, here is our first-list of the types of Facebook creatures. We call it first-list because this too will keep changing just like how the original founders of Facebook keep changing.

The “I’m popular because I attend a lot of events” Facebook creature.
Ohkay, this type of a creature has,in it's pockets/backpack or belt-pouch, a camera, a cellphne and perhaps another gadget to record ambience sound and goes to every event and takes hundreds of pictures. Within 15 minutes after reaching any spot where it can sit with it's laptop after attending any event, this creature has already posted all the pictures of the event on their Facebook profile. This creature typically has hundreds of albums so that it can show the world just how important and “cool” it is. It constantly updates the profile picture so that you can see the various events that it has attended and the various famous creatures that it knows. The only time when there is a delay in updating the profile picture is when it has a picture with a celebrity or somebody famous. In this case, it can be weeks before it changes the profile picture.

The “check out my status” Facebook creature.
This Facebook creature cannot let even an hour pass without updating its status. Thanks to Face book, you know everything that this creature does on an hourly basis. From the moment it wakes up on the neighbor's bed, tits status gets updated. We know when it eats, what it eats, when it goes for su-su and ca-ca, what brand of toothpaste, shampoo and facial soap, body soap, private parts soap it uses, how it is feeling and countless other useless information about itself. This creature believes that the world will end unless it updates its Facebook status at least once every hour at the very minimum.

The “Typical” Facebook creature

There are no typical Facebook creatures. It’s just something other creatures say to make themselves feel better. Just like a drug addict or a compulsive gambler, this creature has a problem, but refuses to admit it. It must log on to Facebook at least once a day, share stuff with other creeatures on its buddy list, otherwise it starts experiencing withdrawal symptoms. These symptoms are usually manifested by hot flashes and/or cold sweats. If it does not log on to Facebook, it feels a sense of emptiness and its life is not complete. Once it has logged-in, all is well again until the next fix.

The “comments will get me layd” Facebook creature

This Facebook creature is typically single and a lonely male. It makes it's life goal to comment on every girl’s picture by writing dumb-asss comments like: “You are beautiful”, “What a beautiful picture”, “I love your hair in that picture. It must smell nice”. This lonely creature uses Facebook to tell girls how it feels because it is too shy to tell them in person. It uses Facebook to tell each and every girl just how “beautiful” she is in hopes of getting layd. That it never gets layd is a moot point. Most he-men Facebook users hate this creature with a passion.

The “please comment on my pictures” Facebook creature
This Facebook creature is very similar to the “comments will get me layd” Facebook creature. However, this creature is more likely to be a female. It spends its time commenting on other creatures’ walls in hopes that these creatures will comment back on their page. Getting comments makes these creatures feel good and important. This creature usually uploads pictures to Facebook and then waits for hours until somebody finally comments on one of its pictures. It typically gets really mad when others do not comment back or write on its wall.

The “I change my relationship status to get attention” Facebook creature.
This Facebook creature is also quite annoying. Every time something happens in its personal life, it must change its relationship status.If it fights with its mate, its status is single”. If they make up, its status changes to “committed”. If its mate cheats on them, its status becomes “it’s complicated”. All these relationship status changes can happen within the span of only several hours, sometimes minutes for this creature.Somehow, this creature feels that the entire universe cares about its relationship status. We don’t.

The “I’m on every Facebook network” Facebook creature
This creature typically does not have a lot of friends on Facebook . It joins every possible network in hopes of making more friends on Facebook. The goal for these type of creatures is usually to reach at least 100 friends. Most of these types of creatures never reach this goal.

The “I have every possible Facebook application” Facebook creature
This creature is one of the most annoying of all Facebook creatures you may come across. It usually sends you multiple requests to download various crappy applications so that you can play stupid games with it on Facebook. As if Facebook itself was not a complete waste of time, this user wants you to adopt a pet, become a vampire and all kinds of other stupid things to make you waste even more time with Facebook.Even after you uninstall one of their crappy applications, they send you a request to download another crappy application. And each day these creatures are spoilt by the number of applications that are made available.

The “That-other-space/SNS is so much better” Facebook creature
This Facebook creature typically ends all their remarks by telling you how much better That-other-space/SNS is compared to Facebook. This creature has invested so much time and energy on That-other-space/SNS that it resents Facebook. It only joined Facebook because all its That-other-space/SNS friends are now on Facebook. It took them forever to get many That-other-space/SNS friends and now its quite angry at having to start over with Facebook because nobody is using That-other-space/SNS anymore.

The “I’m on Facebook because it’s the cool thing to do” creature
This creature creates a Facebook account, updates some profile information and never uses Facebook again. These creatures typically know nothing about social networking sites and only joined Facebook because it is what everybody else was doing.

PS:
After the call and after about half-a-dozen, " I love you, sweetheart" were exchanged, my girl-friend disconnected with a deep sigh and said, " Enough baba, I have to go and update my status to 'I am committed'"[sigh]
