10 annoying things couples do on Facebook

1. Always have couple pictures as their profile picture

Okay. So the majority of the 'I am in a relationship people' on Facebook usually have a couple photo as their profile picture. And in not so rare cases a person might have their girl friend or boyfriend's solo picture on their profile. This is misleading and annoying on so many levels. Misleading because the profile they have created resembles a single person, while the profile picture states otherwise. Or the mere fact that it is very unappealing to have a profile picture of a boy under a clear cut girl's Id. It is the same as seeing a picture of Brad pitt on Angelina Jolie's profile. Not such a pretty sight, is it now? What these love nuts really need to do is operate under a couple Id. Simple and handy at the same time.

2. Writing unnecessary cute things on each other's walls

This is like the modern version of love notes. One of the many things couples tend to do when they are caught up in the so called mist of love. When I was in school it was the most horrid thing to have couples in class. Now don’t get me wrong. It was a pleasant sight to have these dim witted people with all gooey eyes staring at each other. But they do this thing where they pass these little paper folds (the so called love notes) across the class to each other. It is more like an annoying and overrated version of passing the secret, only in this case not everyone knows the secret. But now since the invention of Facebook, these love notes suddenly seems to be all over the place. Dumb, silly, cute love notes. Much to my dismay they are mostly copy pasted from Google. Duh! The least they could do is be original. Or at least copy paste a romantic 'Bandhi', 'Raivaru' or 'Lhen ' and be unique. 

3. Bombarding other people's pictures with personal conversations

Don’t you just hate it when you upload a picture and  two people just ruin it for you by starting a conversation about that tree in the background which reminds them of their first date. Or a status about how you love a certain book becomes a personal war between two people about their opinion on it. Not to mention the endless trait of hearts they leave with each comment. And no matter how tempted you are, you just have to bear with those comments without deleting them since you don’t want to hurt your friends. The dilemma!

4. 'Own' every picture of their better half

Jack owns <3 Mike owns <3 Luke owns <3 Ezra owns <3. On every damn single picture. I don't know why it annoys me, but it does. And I bet my ass that most of the people who use it doesn’t even know what it really means. I know, reality hits hard.

5. Constantly fraping each other

Now, imagine that awesome moment when you see a sassy status update on your news feed. Literally everybody is going gaga over it. Commenting, liking, blah blah. But only later you know that the person was fraped ( Meaning:) Annoying, right? And with so many people being fraped into declaring their eternal love for Justin Bieber, no wonder that brat still has his head up his ass. I personally blame the couples on Facebook for catastrophe's as such.

6. Those annoying meaningless life events

October 31 - He looked at me for the first time. November 1 - He smiled at me. November 2 - He said Hi. November 3 - Realized my undying love for him. November 4 - In a relationship with (insert name). November 5 - Got engaged to (insert name). November 6 - Got pregnant. November 7 - Got married to (insert name). You basically know what I'm trying to say, right? *sigh*

7. Always writing 'With (Insert name)' on their statuses

Did you notice that couples always make use of that 'with' option. It's hilarious and annoying at the same time. I wouldn’t be surprised if someone updates their status saying "Just pooped and on my way back to the room now- with (insert name)". Ahh! May that day never come. Amen.

8. Over use of the emotion 'Feeling loved'

Aren't couples on Facebook always feeling loved? I wonder if they are really feeling that way or its simply one of many things couples do. Anyhow, its plain annoying and makes me wonder if they are incapable of feeling any other emotion. May be they just don’t realize the fact that we are blessed with uncountable number of synonyms in the English language. Or are they just lazy?

 

9. PDA oozing out of the pictures

Poses that makes me cringe in shame. Poses that makes me want to throw up. One thing these people don’t understand is that a picture of them hugging as if it’s the end of the world is the last thing I want to see on my news feed every time I log into Facebook. Facebook is not a Porn site. For the love of God have some mercy on the people in your friend lists.

10. Sharing love songs

Don’t you just wish that the person would randomly lose all their hair each time they shared a song from Ashiqui 2? Or is it just me? I can't emphasize much on this. Such waste of all those awesome songs on YouTube.

Six obnoxious dupes you will encounter in every law class

I have recently started second semester at Maldives National University (MNU) as a first year law student. And to be back after spending over a month, in my home land makes me gloomy. Nevertheless, I’m all set and prepped up for this semester. Motivation level is currently at peak and procrastination is still in hibernation.

Having met some old classmates and teachers I always get posed with questions about my studies, friends, lifestyle, etc. And every so often, I get asked about the learning environment here at the University and the lecturer’s. That’s the easy part. However, when asked about my fellow classmates I get stumped. I mean hypothetically it’s a vast topic and I can present you with pre-designed pie charts and research findings if that’s what you are looking for. But expecting a one word answers like ‘Awesome’, ‘Cool’, ‘Boring’ would be simply unjust to their whole being.

So let me get started. In a typical law class I attend, there are around 20-30 students, most of them who stick to the same class schedule as me. Yet in some classes I might spot new faces. And like the 12 zodiac personalities, every law class consists of students with distinctive moral fibre. I personally classify them into 6 categories.

Mr Know-it-all

You know the type. They are a God’s gift to law school; every word out of their mouth is gold. Their hands are always up in the air and mouths are wide open. Always waiting and ready for a moment to talk. They always come up with the rarest and weirdest ‘Did you know facts’ that will stun you. Going to office, keeping up with the current affairs of the world, talking the ear off anyone who will listen about their theories of justice and bragging about almost everything is the typical picture of the Mr Know-it-all.

The silently overconfident overachiever

This person will just sit back, absorb the scene, then do what most of us have always done in school – cram for exams and get straight A’s. However, cramming is rarely the winning strategy for Law school. These overachiever’s at times work wonders but very so often they get away with just a pass.

The bundle of nerves

Where the overconfident overachiever is calm and collected, these people are a walking disaster. The thought of being called on makes them hyperventilate. They can barely focus in class because they’re so paranoid about saying something stupid. Just by looking at them can make you feel exhausted and mentally drained. Never sit with them. Never!!! They can definitely pass their anxiety cooties on you. These people actually make you curious as to what it will be really like if they actually graduate and become Lawyers. The horror!!

The Good Girl.

They are the teacher’s pet. They persistently do every assignment and attend every class. They believe every word that comes out of the lecturer’s mouth (literally). They sit at the front row, thoroughly taking notes. Always taking notes. Literally, the pen never stops. Not even when the lecturer is sharing some heart to heart stories about his/her childhood. What the hell are they thinking? Writing that down too?

The ideas guy.

People who fall under this category have an insatiable thirst for knowledge, and love learning the law. Except they are just always so frustrated about the already existing doctrines and rules. They just always want to invent something new, something creative. The ideas are exciting and fresh too. But sometimes, it’s just too overwhelming. If it were up to them, these people might not think twice before changing the already existing judgements. They are just so full of ideas and opinions that it can’t be helped.

The slacker.

Every class has a few slackers. Instead of going to the law library, the slacker goes home to play video games, tweet and chat on Facebook. However, the annoying thing about the slacker is that they are going to do better than you expect. I don’t know how they do it. But, they just do. May be Magic?

Then there are people who don’t fall into any of the six categories. The Normal people. And lemme tell you this. These so called normal people are very very rare, just like unicorns ;)
