8 Examples Of “Facebook Friends” That People Are Tired Of, Posted By This Page

That’s Not My is a multi-award winning series of over 50 touchy-feely books for babies and toddlers. They include bright, colorful illustrations with textures to touch and feel, helping young kids to develop language and sensory skills. Recently, however, one spinoff “expanded” the series for adults, too.

British satirical website The Poke has just released a parody of the popular series called “That’s Not My Facebook Friend…” It’s funny, direct, and most importantly, accurate. The funny pictures perfectly describe all of our contacts on the platform we aren’t very proud of but maintain for one reason or another. Which reminds me, gotta go unfollow a few people.

According to Pew Research Center, around seven-in-ten Americans use Facebook to connect with one another, engage with news content, share information, and entertain themselves. YouTube is the only other online platform measured that matches Facebook’s reach (73% of adults report using the video-sharing site). But certain online platforms, most notably Instagram and Snapchat, have an especially strong following among young adults.

Interestingly, some Facebook users reported they had recently taken steps to moderate their use of the site such as deleting the app from their phone or taking a break from the platform every now and then. But despite these findings and amid some high profile controversies, Facebook users as a whole were just as active on the site in 2019 as they were in 2018. Roughly three-quarters of Facebook users (74%) visit the site daily, including about half who do so several times a day.

I'm a visual editor at Bored Panda. I kickstart my day with a mug of coffee bigger than my head, ready to tackle Photoshop. I navigate through the digital jungle with finesse, fueled by bamboo breaks and caffeine kicks. When the workday winds down, you might catch me devouring bamboo snacks while binging on the latest TV show, gaming or I could be out in nature, soaking up the tranquility and communing with my inner panda.

The one from the last picture is not your FB friend neither. She's just deactivated her account.

True. Kinda missed a trick here, I think it should've read something like 'That’s (what would’ve been) my Facebook Friend :(

Year after year I am surviving after deleting my Facebook account. Must be at least six year by now, maybe seven or eight. I do not feel deprived of anything.

Same here. Too many ethical lapses and controversies surrounding Facebook.
