I have no opinion as to who is posting these, but I do absolutely fricking hate this dumb shite.

Check your data. I literally have never seen your "repost requests on tiger droppings". Are you one of those Facebook users?

Most boomers are technologically illiterate and quite frankly retarded when it comes to social media.

It’s so stupid, and it’s always old boomers who repost that shite. Lol
I don’t understand the appeal of that and why some many old people participate in that junk.


I'm a Boomer (65) and I simply ignore those. I am yet to lose a single friend.

Also, it is not only Boomers that do it.

My favorite boomer activity to watch is boomers trying to sell their used trash for insane prices on facebook.

I have a woman in our HOA FB group who is going on month 2 of trying to sell what looks like a shitty marshalls bookshelf for $300. She will sometimes follow up the post with a post yelling about why her post isnt at the top of the page I'M TRYING TO SELL A SHELF!!!!1!

When I was on there it was always millennials doing it. Pretty confident it was us or gen x that started the dumb chain shite.


And if you aren't a boomer, why are you friends with a bunch of boomers on Facebook?

Why do clowns like you come here to complain about facebook?


You posted a "Facebook is stealing your information and you have to post 'I DO NOT WANT MY INFORMATION STOLEN' on your page to block it" type post this morning didn't you?

No it started destroying the world when everyone was able to access it at anytime at the palm of their hand.
