I observe daily, about 90 percent of my facebook "friends" have no etiquette or tact when it comes to using social media. Here is some quick common sense for all of you dummies online.
1. “Creep and you shall find.” Snooping, otherwise known as “creeping,” is just as wrong online as it is offline.

2. If you want to save yourself the headache, don’t befriend the person you’re dating on facebook. In fact, I hope my significant other doesn’t even have one.
3. You should wash your dirty laundry, not air it on facebook.
4. I don’t believe in online drama. “Facebook feud? Bitch, I will find you and set you on fire.”
5. Some things need to be reserved for a journal or be told to a therapist. Personally, I like to keep my personal business between me, myself, and my best friend. If you want to know how I’ve been or what I’ve been doing, just ask me.
6. Give your password out to someone you trust; just in case you end up behind bars or six feet under. Facebook isn’t your grave site or your bail bondsman. I want mine deleted the moment I die and go to Barbie Heaven.
7. Don’t add me and try to date me... that goes for me and my friends. This isn’t Match.com. If you want to know my friend’s name, search through my list. If you’re as creepy as I know you are, you’ll take the time and find her.
8. There IS a difference between your and you’re; there, their and they’re; could and couldn’t care less, to, two, and too. The vast majority of facebook members don’t list their elementary school as their primary education. Work on your grammar, people. I’m sure you passed the 1st grade.
These last two, especially goes out to the ladies.
9. Some women run to facebook the moment they get done peeing on that stick. Ladies, you should NEVER, EVER... EVER, tell more than your close friends and family that you’re pregnant before your first trimester, let alone the entire facebook world—why? If you want to get scientific, 1 in 5 women will miscarry within the first seven weeks of pregnancy. Personally, you won’t know I’m pregnant until the thing pops out. Maybe I’m the only one who thinks it’s weird to put up pictures of your unborn fetus anyway?
10. Put the camera phone down, put your breasts back in your shirt, and step away from the mirror. Ladies, we get it. We all want attention, but clearly what you need are some friends. Find one to take a picture of you or with you. Albums like this are completely unnecessary.
love, BB.
