Notification nightmare

Receiving a slew of notifications for one or more pictures/videos/etc that one is affiliated with on Facebook. Caused when other people tagged in that picture/video/etc keep commenting. Hast the tendency to clog up e-mail inboxes and results in a pileup of red notifications in the lower right hand corner of the facebook screen toolbar. Can be very annoying or amusing, depending on the individual.
I woke up this morning to a notification nightmare when I saw that 50 new comments had been posted about the candid picture I snapped of Derek cheating on Hailey.

Gray notification

A FB notification you don't really pay attention to when you receive it, because it's not the notification you were expecting in response to you
Zoe: Hey, I asked a question on our class Facebook group. Did you see it?

Janet: No. That was probably a gray notification for me because no one liked my new Facebook status.

Zoe: Loser.

Janet: Hey! Admit it! Everyone prefers likes on their Facebook posts!

Death by notification

When a smart phone gets so many facebook notifications, texts, emails, or BBMs, etc. in a small amount of time that the battery dies. This can be done by one person or a group of people either intentionally or not.
Girl: Asshole you straight liked my profile. My phone received Death by notification after receiving 98 notifications. I didn't realize this until my car was broken down at the side of the road.

Further after the phone died i continued receiving notifications as well.

Ghost Notification

An extremely annoying occurrence on facebook. A ghost notification is what happens when you click a notification, and it takes you to the appropriate place, but the notification still stays there, so you click it again, but nothing different happens. You get your hopes all up for another notification and it's just another dumb ghost notification.
YES!!!! ANOTHER NOTIFICATION!!!!
