Annoying things people write on Facebook

"The Morton County Sheriff's Department has been using Facebook check-ins to find out who is at Standing Rock in order to target them in attempts to disrupt the prayer camps. So Water Protesters are calling on EVERYONE to check-in at Standing Rock, ND to overwhelm and confuse them. This is concrete action that can protect people putting their bodies and well-beings on the line that we can do without leaving our homes."

NB. If you check in, a clarifying note should be separate from your check-in post, otherwise it is easy to differentiate between actual vs. solidarity check-ins. ALSO, please make your check-in public.

Still think we should create a P&B Facebook headline story that ticks all the boxes and see how far it gets.

'Asylum seeking poppyless Travellers who jump housing queues whilst marking your door with an chalk symbol to steal your dog and children'.

You know how whenever there's a big football game, or tournament on and certain people feel the need to let everyone know that THEY aren't interested?

 

Well, their USAian equivalents are tripping over themselves this morning to show how edgy and remarkable they are because they don't care about last night's baseball result. And yet somehow they think their regular "It's wine O'clock!" type memes are keeping the rest of us on the edge of our seats.

 

And before anyone asks, no I don't know why it's called the "World" Series. Any more than I know why it's called the UEFA "Champions" League.

Josh Laventhal, the author of World Series, said early organizers used the term as a marketing tactic. "By emphasizing the global significance of the game, they would be able to draw more people to the ballparks."

Several baseball blogs claim that the New York World newspaper was a sponsor of the game. They're in error, according to Eric Enders, head of Triple E Productions, a baseball research and consulting service.

"The truth is that at the time when it was first called World Series the two teams were really the best teams in the world," he said. "So they could semi-legitimately call that the World Series." But he conceded that today, with numerous other countries playing professional baseball, it might no longer be a legitimate claim.
