Facebook "characters"

Facebook...those of us who use it, use it the way it suits us best. One of the funniest things I have noticed that people who post usually fall into one of several categories

ANNOYING OPTIMISTS: You know the type.  Never a cynical comment or snarky remark.  Just pure, unadulterated, relentlessly irritating positiveness.

Sample Status Update:  I just finished my 100 mile run after a really kick-ass home-cooked meal and some great forward-movement on my novel.    Wow, what a day!

BRAGGERS: much like the optimists, it’s not enough for them to be happy, they have to make sure everyone knows this. (may be lies)

Sample Status Update:  I am so swamped with career opportunities.   Where am I going to find time to attend Snoop Dogg's  birthday party?

OVERSHARERS: honestly, I skim these…

Sample Status Update:  Weird knot on my inner thigh....  Any home remedy suggestions???

OBTUSERS:  they have nothing interesting to say so they attempt to couch their statuses with an air of mystery…

Sample Status Update:  I can’t believe she said that.  Day ruined!

SOCIAL FACEBOOK-TIVISTS: It’s always one obvious cause or another.

Sample Status Update:  Roger is against the spread of AIDS.  If you are too, cut and paste this into your own update!  Let’s use the power of Facebook to stop AIDS!

24 HOUR PARENTERS: They see Facebook as an endless live stream of adorable kiddie information.  And they assume we’re lovin’ it.

Sample Status Update:  Nancy is so proud of her little Colten — three trips to the potty with no poopy pants!

ALL-BUSINESS TYPES: They go months, sometimes years, without updating.  Then pop up only when they need something.  Then, they’re gone again…

Sample Status Update:  James is looking for a new dentist in the mid-town area.

  

So… which type are you?  Did I miss any?
