Thumbs Down
Immaturely, I’m experiencing a moment where I’m wishing there was a thumbs down icon at the bottom of posts and comments in Facebook
Ugh.
I just resorted to doing this:
#ThumbsDown

I simply dumped Facebook. Completely scrubbed myself from it, nothing left, nada. That was the best thumbs down I ever did;)
That’s definitely something to consider. I have on numerous occasions, deactivated my account. Sometimes life is far too busy to keep up with social media!
Had a good day Lou? Xx
Not on Facebook. But it seems to me that no one should take any negative comments seriously. Some people just enjoy being nasty.
A *wtf* button would certainly help in many cases. XD
What The Fungus!?!?!? lol
Completely agree!!

What the fungus sounds about right. XD

Have you ever thought about who you allow to comment at FB? It is possible to change in your settings so only you decide who are able to comment at your site.
This is people I do not know making comments, Irene. I subscribe to many news pages and other community resource pages.
Admittedly, I rarely find myself affected by such comments, finding it easy to brush them off, or disregard them as I read over other information.
These comments are actually quite common in such pages and no different than any other time really – it was my own reaction which was unexpected.. lol
Rather than conducting a long drawn out debate, I resorted to this:
#ThumbsDown and then blocked them.. lol
It sounds like the right way to do. We don’t need negative souls around us, they just try to track us down too 😀 Stay positive.
Completely agree! Association really does make a difference!

Haha…don’t have FB so I’m immune (but do you mean Blog posts too?!)
I suppose any kind of commentary, in any social media platform – though the comments responsible for this immature spat on my behalf was aimed at asylum seekers and saying they deserved to drown – and anything else they get if they try to enter another country illegally.
Aside from the fact that it is NOT illegal to seek asylum, I was finding it difficult to comprehend how anyone can wish the death of another person. This without that person having done anything to them, without them even knowing the person.
Just scary, and ridiculous, mostly.. scary.

Scary indeed, and alienating. Makes you dismayed at the lack of empathy in some. 😦
Agreed!
😦
Everything alright Lou? Xx
Yes, wonderful Dave 🙂
How about you?
I’ve been ok, a bit sick but recovering, how have you been? I’ve missed you! Xx
Pretty good on my end – very busy with Soccer, Football (AFL), Sick children and Committee work 🙂
Glad to hear you are recovering! Being sick sucks barnacles!
Ya crickets been a bit affected by it, but still keeping spirits up 🙂 have you been managing to get some relaxation time I’m also? And hugs by the way 🙂
*huggles* Yes, rest too, sort of kind of.. not really..
BUT it’s not an anxious busy 🙂 So that is good.
Glad your ok by the way 🙂 I’m off to bed in a bit anyhoo so sweet dreams Lou, big hugs xx
Very glad it’s not an anxious busy, but still, I worry so make sure to take some rest time, deal? 😉
And even more *huggles*
I’ve searched for the icon many a time. MM 🍀
*nods* Usually I don’t get so grouchy about it!
ML
When you’re rightyou are right
🙂
I completely agree!!! Especially on FB! Bleh!
*nods* It feels a bit better knowing I’m not the only one that has these mini tanti rants… Lol
haha, umm no, you’re not the only one 🙂
#YayBananas
I gave FB and Twitter a big Thumbs Down and closed both accounts…LOL Now I wish WP had a block button! Ugh!
Lol WordPress does have a block button.. Lol
I’ve deactivated my Facebook account a few times, particularly if I’ve been busy with work and was feeling pressured to keep up.. #TooHard
Ok girl, I’m talking about blocking these trolls here…LOL FB is a joke and not worth my time! Bah humbug!
LOL… There is what seems like a never ending supply of trolling trolls….
I’m not ready to cut ties with my Facebook yet… Few more trolls before I reach my ‘had it up to here quota’ lol
When you’ve had enough, you’ll know it…LOL trolls are a part of social media life. Sigh….
I know *slumps* alas, I have a whole cyber freezer FULL of cactus stuffed lake trout to slap them with if they get out of hand..
Well now your talkin….LOL That’s funny. I just had a visual of you slapping them with trout! Hahaha!
LOL
Oh my Gawd! Was it something I said?!?
Laughing laughing LaugHING My Ass Off.
I didn’t even know you had Facebook, Lance…Lol so no, not something you said.. :p
I have 13,999 FB Friends. I know ten of ’em.
Lol, wow!! I think I have about 90 and I know all of em…. *chuckles*
That was typographically in error: Meant to write, 139,000
Okay, Here is MY pet peeve Sunday: People who have that inordinate number of FB Friends (Y’all know who you are). In truth, I have a few. And I do Know All of ’em. Most in the Biblical Sense.
Just Kidding (’bout the Biblical anyhow)
*giggling* GeezLouise!!
Or at least I did, at one time or another…
Agreed! I’ll jump on the immaturity wagon and also say there should be the follow buttons for Facebook:
~you suck
~please refrain from ever speaking your opinion again
~why am I friends with you
~your political views are annoying
….I could go on.
OH.MY.GOODNESS.STOP!!
Bwaahahhaahahahahahahahahaha! *Gasping for air*
I’ve got to say, most of my friends are fine.. its the annoying people saying annoying stuff on the news posts that drive me nuts…
I keep reminding myself if I respond I’m feeding trolls..
#ThumbsDown
I get that. The Obama bashing and pro gun posts are begging to be argued with …but I refrain. Those buttons would come in handy…in a passive aggressive kind of way I suppose 🙂
*lol*
🙂
I suspect that will not be so popular. I ran into one discussion forum out there that supported both options (thumb up and down). Now, only thumb up option is available. 🙂
I think you are right – and honestly I don’t think it is a great idea, kind of like encouraging trolls.. (not that they need any encouragement)
I just resorted to writing #ThumbsDown to get my point across, cause I couldn’t be bothered even trying to have a conversation!
Lol! I wish that too sometimes.
The Fungus is strong… Lol Annoying people saying annoying things!! #SmackTrolls
Closest we will ever come to the power of a Roman Emperor, thumbing down an inane Facebook update, or self-glamorizing pic.
LOL #BigGrins
Helps it all fall into context eh.. lol
Thank you

The endless scroll of stupidity…
Yes. I’m feeling a bit stupid myself at the moment.
#EmotionalReactions
Oh, I feel you ML… Happens…
And on WP methinks ..hell all social media 🙂
LOL! I usually go past the trollish business with ease…
Also, I think there might be a way to add thumbs up and down to WordPress… Hmm what about least favorite for Twitter?
lol I don’t Twit that much so any ups or downs are fine by me 🙂
lolol *giggling* Lots of #TweetingTwits about!!
