Facebook

Why do people feel the need to overshare on Facebook?  I've seen posts bashing ex-spouses, announcing a divorce, announcing an unplanned pregnancy, gossiping about teachers, coaches and each other.  Really?  I'm not just talking about teenagers on Facebook...  I'm talking about grown ass men and women!  What the hell is wrong with you people?  Do you think that everyone on your friends list wants or needs to know that your wife/husband cheated on you?  That they're a dirty whore or rotten bastard?  All you're accomplishing is making everyone uncomfortable and making yourself look like an ass.  Facebook is not the place to talk about cheating partners, a teen pregnancy, your vagina/penis issues, the coach you can't stand, the "friends" you can't stand or any other deep issue.  Really, nobody wants to know about it in a public forum.  Pick up the phone and call your close friend to vent...  don't vent to the world.  This really is Facebook etiquette 101 isn't it?
