Ah, Facebook. With about 90% of the entire world population on Facebook and its humble followers flocking on there to make ends meet in their social lives. While you’re bound to find hundreds of tell-tale signs of your addiction to Facebook, we’ve decided not to leave out the people who aren’t. So, without wasting too much of your time, here are eight tell-tale signs that you’re NOT addicted to Facebook.
1. No One Likes Your Status
Not hinting at the fact that you have no social significance in society, but all we’re saying is that the group of people you’re friends with, are either neutral about using Facebook. And the ones who do, are your really close friends. You also see Facebook as a way to keep in touch with your friends and family, not a popularity contest.
2. People Seek Permission to Tag You On Pictures
You’re not just insecure about people seeing pictures of you holding your grandmother tight, but you don’t want people checking up on what you do with your friends and family, or give them the opportunity to stalk you anyways. On top of that, do you really want to give people a chance to see a picture of you all cross-eyed when dancing.
3. You Don’t Care About Facebook Changing Its Layouts
Facebook will always and forever change its layouts whenever it feels like it. It’s their website, it’s their business, so it’s their decision. Sure it’ll be a little of an inconvenience to figure out how things work from scratch, but it’s just a website. Not the end of the world. People who whine about Facebook changing its layout, get a grip and take five minutes to get used to it.
4. You Remember Birthdays
If there’s one thing a lot of Facebook users hate, it’s having over 10 people you hardly talk to spam your Wall with birthday wishes, reminding you that you have Facebook friends who only chat up when they see your birthday on the Events bar. If you’re a good person, you would remember at least five people’s birthdays my heart, and would never, ever result to posting a birthday wish on their wall. Good on you!
5. You Hate Hearing Updates About Likes and Comments
So, your friend posts a public question about something that interests you. You leave a Like, or a comment. Before you know it, you’re getting twenty beeps on your mobile about people who’ve also commented or liked what you said. That beeping sound you hear on Facebook, is like a ticking time bomb as to when you’re about to explode. People who aren’t addicted to Facebook know very well that its about them, and not what anyone else thinks.
6. You Change Your Profile Picture Once Every Two Months
There are people who change their profile pictures twice a day, people who change their picture weekly, people who change their picture only when they find a decent picture of themselves, people who use fake pictures, people who use pictures of anything but themselves, people who hardly change their pictures, and of course, people with no pictures at all. If you’re not addicted, you probably fall under three of the mentioned categories.
7. You Bubble Up in Hate With Very Descriptive Statuses
You’re scrolling down your Facebook feed. You see someone post something sensationally intriguing. And then, you read someone’s status about what they did today and how they intend to change their lifestyle. And then, your stomach feels sick, and you wished you never befriended those people, or you can at least regret your relationship with them.
8. You Post Images of Tard
Oh, Tarder Sauce aka Grumpy Cat. If there’s one thing we love about Tard is his absolute hatred for the world and that translates to the way you see Facebook.
