Facebook fishing

An inflammatory post, usually political or religious in nature, that you do not necessarily agree with but you are fishing for outrageous responses from your varied group of friends. Best done after a few drinks and after 11:30 pm. The enjoyment usually comes when you wake up to see the whale of a facebook comment mess you created when you've alienated and pissed off most of the people you know.

Choosing the proper lure can be challenging but pick something that even the most politically neutral will take offense to.

Happy fishing.
I was facebook fishing last night so I posted this: "So 49% of america voted for McCain and 51% voted for Black Bush. Sounds like the same old song and dance to me. Preventative attacks to stop people from dying by killing others in foreign lands. Yep. Great plan."

Facebook Parents

Parents who make their families seem perfect only social media but in real life they could be really bad parents.
Friend 1: How was New York?
Friend 2: It was the worst week of my life!
Friend 1: Really? Your mom posted a pic with the caption " Best trip ever!"
Friend 2: Well two seconds after the photo was taken my parent got in a fight about what was for lunch. My mom likes to pretend we have a perfect family on facebook.
Friend 1: Well that's shallow.
Friend 2: Yea. They are Facebook Parents

Facebook Fail

When someone posts something on facebook that is meant to get alot of likes, (ie. LMS or tbh ) and nobody likes it.

Guy 2: "Bahahaha facebook fail!!"
