THE FACEBOOK STATUS A surprise road trip to UG then Eldoret for 4days in a cabin. All I can say is wow, what a perfect boyfriend, life cannot get any better. Thank God I found him, love you honey, got no regrets for coming across you. What runs in your mind at the sight of such a status? What’s the motivation for that? Aren’t there more inventive ways of expressing yourself other than dragging your 1500 friends into this shit? This is just one among the many annoying posts. If you want some cool time full of likes and comments, post a status that is informative or interesting if not a funny or entertaining one. Let it be original not the usual, `mwanaume ni tuskys Nakumattt achia KDF’. Talking of posts, there are different kinds of annoying posts, let’s walk in the park and exhaust on them. THE BRAG Motivated by image crafting or jealousy inducing, meet the blatant brag who wants to tell his 1500 friends that indeed he is living quite a life. `Just bought a Nokia Lumia 1020 and yeah you should check up on the photos, they are damn clear. What do you expect from a 42miga pixel camera?’ Just graduated with a first class honours from USIU’. Before you consider posting such, get to know the purpose of emails, texts if not live talking. Get a life! Here comes the undercover brag or best known as the indirect brag, very humble with his bragging. `OMG I don’t know what’s up with me today. On my way to school was honked on twice and a guy almost caused an accident along Thika road trying to slow down just to stare at me, don’t I just hate men!’ She wants to brag about her great relationship and how there’s is a happily ever after affair. `I cannot stop enjoying this day, pizzas, shopping, and movies, courtesy of who else except my adorable princess. Girl, make a phone call and pour your love to him. THE OUT OF NOWHERE ACCEPTANCE SPEECH Is it out of courtesy or feeling moved that when one accepts your friend request you must post a `thanks for the add’ in the timeline? Cut off your courteous already, most people hate such! How about this, `Just want to be thankful for your unlimited support, without you my life would be terrible’. What do you call that if not seeking attention? I refuse to believe that one would feel a genuine outpouring love for 1500 friends, most of who you only know them online. LITERAL STATUS UPDATE. Sometimes loneliness just makes up update stuff, `finally finished with my paper’. That’s a good way to start a chat with people who will comment with friendly comments like wow, you must be very happy, how was it? Unfriendly ones will also be there `sasa unatwambia tukusaidie aje? Baff. THE INCREDIBLY OBVIOUS OPINION. After the Westgate attack `My prayers and thoughts for the west gate attack, my heartfelt condolences to the affected families. That event the media is already flooding our airways about covering every possible angle. Trust me very few people who post this get on their knees to pray leave alone saying a short prayer for the victims. Spare us the shared updates from KTN also, we also have smart phones and televisions. THE STEP TOWARDS ENLIGHTMENT You want to have millions of secret admirer? The secret is posting lots of encouragement quotes even when you don’t know the meaning, you want admirers anyway. Try this, Proverbs 3: 5-6 says………you can even copy paste the interpretation from the internet. ‘From today am cutting off all the dream bastards in my life, somebody say Amen.’ Spare that for a bible study in your house. THE CRYPTIC CLIFFHANGER. This is that group who will post info in brief because they don’t want to give details, basically they are craving for attention. ` You did it again, it’s over’. That’s it, am done dating. The person will either stay silent and take the commenters as gawking fans or explain everything in the comments. That’s what attention craving leads one to do. Every one of us post any if not all of these annoying post, its normal human qualities. We want to brag here and there, seek attention, let the world know you are digital and yes, at one point we feel lonely. The fact that there is no dislike button, eye-role button or a middle finger button makes us experience that annoyance moment. Anyway, let me start preparing for my flight to Rwanda courtesy of my best friend Max. Girl, you are the big sister I never had!!!
