What Absolutely NOT to have on Facebook

[melindawarren]

My pet peeves (not that the ones above aren't annoying, but I don't need to rehash them):

1. Wen u tlk lyk dissssss 4 2 looooooongggggggggg (or at all. At a certain age, I guess it's understandable, but it's obnoxious if you're old enough to go to college.)

2. Anything with more than 3 exclamation points or question marks that isn't something along the lines of "OMG!!! Congrats on your engagement!" once every now and then.

3. You in your bikini. I don't know why a) every girl wants her bikini photos on facebook and b) it seems like everyone lives close enough to a beach to get a bikini photo, but people rarely ever look really good in them, and it's just annoying to read people's comments (because they always go along the lines of 1 and 2).

4. Chain messages in a status

5. You flipping the camera off. Is that really necessary?

6. I like the grandmother test (to a point). When it comes to photos, would you show that to your grandmother? If your grandmother suddenly learned how to email, is that how you'd write to her?

I know that facebook's "just for fun" or whatever, but the thing is, it's not anymore. Also, please be careful to clean up your timeline. 13-year-old you should not become your main online representation if that's not a solid reflection of you.
