Facebook Shark

Shhhhhh...that bitch doesn't even think we are talking about her. No one gives a shit about her, but I'm going to spend my time devoting 50% of my FB page to her and all of you will spend your time reading about her. Man, I hope I get some laffs out of this, because being a Facebook Shark makes me feel important and hopefully feared by others I think are trying to cross me.

The practice of luring friends (Facebook Sharks), by throwing "chum" into the water. Chum usually consists of political or religious comments... far too tempting for a Shark to ignore. The water in this case would be status updates and walls.

"The Church isn't interested in money or power...."

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
