Status Delay 

Occurs when a person has posted a new status on facebook but suddenly realizes or finds something else that they want as their status but delays a few hours to post it so that people won't get angry that he or she is filling up their newsfeed.
After posting a unique quote on facebook, Robert suddenly realized that he wanted to also post a video from youtube as well but status delayed for a few hours before doing so.

status orgy 

when too many people comment on a user's facebook status, resulting in multiple conversations with multiple groups of people.

although status orgies are occasionally funny, they result in an annoying overload of notifications for everyone involved.
example #1:
after 36 comments, the post was declared a status orgy

example #2:
John: "whoa, 26 notifications?"
Jane: "that's just some status orgy I was in"

Timid Tim: "Boy, I've been thinking about starting a diet myself, but I'm concerned it won't work for me"
Johnny Boy: "How have you been Tim, sounds like you're still timid."
*conversation between Timid Tim and Johnny Boy commences*
