12 Social Media Pet Peeves

social media annoyanceWe spend most of our day on social media, and as you can imagine, we’ve seen everything.  I thought it would be cathartic to share our top (mainly personal) social media pet peeves.

Disclaimer: I share a lot of cat photos, which could be a pet peeve for you!

  • 50 hashtags in a Facebook post
  • Relentless selfies
  • Animal social profiles
  • Incessant political rants
  • Those who connect just to spam their MLM opportunity
  • Groups I didn’t join, but was added (usually related to the above)
  • Event invites for an ‘online party’ (also related to the above)
  • Constant meme or video shares, but nothing about you
  • Help us get 10,000 ‘likes’ and save a life
  • A seemingly heartfelt post followed by ‘copy and paste this into your status if you agree’
  • Chain messages
  • Creepers, stalkers and hecklers

I also have a list for professional pet peeves. Perhaps for the next blog? I invite you to chime in…

What are some of your social media pet peeves?
