I don't get it either. Same with posting pics of food or checking in at the gym on Facebook. Cool. I could care less that you're at the gym. The two things on social media that I hate the most, in this order are:
1. New mothers.
2. Couples that feel the need to broadcast how much they "love one another".
Number one is an automatic unfollow or unfriend for me. A new mother will almost always shove pictures by the dozens per day of her snot-faced little baby (most of the time it's hideous too) down their friends throats for months and maybe even years on end until they top out at age two. If it's someone that I knew from high school or something that I haven't seen in a decade, they get unfriended. It's usually preemptive too. I will usually do it right when they look like they're about to pop. Here's a solution to any of you about to have a kid: people, in general, don't give a **** about your baby. They don't care to watch it grow up. Start a private page on Facebook entitled "The Life of [Insert Baby's Name Here]", and invite your friends who actually care to come follow it. Post pictures there of little Jayden James Smithwick's first steps, snot running down his face, food time, bed time, etc. Your close friends and family will love it while the rest of your Facebook "friends" aren't inundated with this crap.
Number two is just a joke. In my experience, couples that post statuses of how much they love each other and how great their significant other is usually tend to break up. Reason is because they're overcompensating for something. Maybe she caught him getting it on with a girl on a cruise he was on with his "squad" or vice versa. Either way, it makes me sick. To people that do this: nobody gives a piece of goose **** that your relationship is on the rocks and you have to find ways to save face in public. Just let it go. You two are like the 8th graders that are making out on the pirate ship, gravitron, and zipper rides and in the corners of a fair. You want to spice things up and maybe take the obvious pressure out of things? Choke one another. Get kinky. But your relationship is none of our business so please stop making it our business and shut the **** up or you're getting the axe from me. And don't try to friend me again, because you're getting declined and probably blocked.

That was actually really cathartic. I feel like I need a cigarette now.
