Facebook Bitching Tourettes 

Where a person randomly exclaims (normally in capitals) something bitchy about a person or a group of people on their social network status and then wont tell commenters anymore because that would give away the people that they were bitching about and why the were bitching about them in the first place.

Eventually ending up in the person sending a private message to the commenter.
Person: FUGLY SLUTS
Commenter: Huh?
Person: i cant explain
Commenter:wtf?
Person: Check you inbox

Facebook Tourette's 

A moment in which you have no control over what you say on the social-networking site Facebook. Generally, this indescretion is only for a moment- just long enough to say something stupid on a friend's wall. Or, if you're an idiot with no sense of shame, these Facebook Tourette's "attacks" may last for hours, even days, on end. These attacks are not limited to Facebook, and may happen on any site where users can comment or write statements.
I wasn't going to say that on her wall, but then Facebook Tourette's kicked in and I couldn't help myself.

Facebook Tourette's 

An increasingly common condition already afflicting hundreds of thousands worldwide, Facebook Tourette’s renders its victims incapable of discerning the appropriateness of public posts on Facebook. Victims feel compelled to post every detail of the minutia of their lives on the social networking site for everyone to read. In addition, they feel as though they are required to respond to the posts of others, no matter how mundane their responses may be.
If left untreated, Facebook Tourette’s can eventually morph into a full-blown version, whereby its victims feel obliged to share private details about their lives, leading to a host of potentially mortifying revelations shared freely with the entire world.
Dude, you'll never believe what your mom posted on your wall. I know she can't help it, though. That's her Facebook Tourette's talkin'

Facebook Tourette's 

When someone gets so pissed off that they forget that their parents/teachers/bosses can see what they say and go on a swearing binge that usually takes place in comment threads on a wall post or status. At its worst, Facebook Tourette's dissolves into a shapeless, embarrassing deluge of profanity that lacks any semblance of grammar.

Jimmy: no tommy you shut the f@*k up you f@*king b*%@h d*%k piss s@!t d@*k f^*k

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
