I completely agree. The older stuff had me laughing hysterically, while this newer stuff is just annoying. A lot of people apparently don’t know what funny is.
I agree with rob, dont b*tch about, go do something else with your live. And everything gets a bit slow after a little while. Even verydemotivational had some downtime, but thats over now and the poster are coming back. Still hate the 17 doller ganstah though.
“Supposed to be” is not the same as “is”. Indeed, there are some funny things brought up on this site, but this is not one of them. And if something isn’t funny, then please don’t complain about people saying it isn’t funny. Just laugh at something that isn’t humorous and move on.
I agree. Some things on this website arn’t funny. Some are. If you don’t think its funny don’t take the time to comment. And if you don’t like this site then why are you on it in the first place?
I hate failbookings that feel the need to clarify who a person is. It takes the fun out of it and ruins any surprise. If anything, it makes it less funny or kills the joke altogether, since it tries to explain why it is supposed to be funny. If you have to explain the joke, then it is no longer funny.
So apparently when people are pointing out who a person is in a post because everyone knows who everyone is on the internet the post isn’t funny. I’ll be the first to admit that I would not have found the post even snicker worthy unless the last comment in the post was the girls boyfriend. They post those to explain who the person is. The post wouldn’t been amusing on any level unless we knew who that person was.
Why exactly does pointing out that he is the boyfriend make it funny? Why is it supposed to add to the layer of humor? How are we to believe the person really was going out with the newly single poster, and not just a different friend? Is this funny without knowing who any of them are or what relationships they hold? No. Is it funny that claiming they hold roles that present a situation someone thought was ironic because of their position? No. It is on par with a joke you try to explain to a coworker who doesn’t find it humorous, and you make up excuses like “I thought it was funny then.” or “You had to have been there to understand.” or even “Point is, it was funny at the moment and I suddenly changed my mind that I don’t need your laughter to make me feel good about myself.”
That was lame and un neccacary. Really there isn’t even anything funny about that. That could very well not even be her boyfriend. Lame! You should post ACTUAL funny stuff.
why do so many people that say they hate failbook, read failbook. These people obviously suffer from a mental defect or are forced to read it at gunpoint. Either way, these people truly suck.
It makes it funnt when you know who these people are. If it is pointed out that a poster is someone’s relative or thier partner or something, then that’s where the humour comes from. If you didn’t know that was the boyfriend, then it’s just a random person asking a question.
I swear to god, some people signed up to this site need to get a sense of humour. Or stop coming here.
The “Boyfriend” note isn’t an explanation of the joke, it’s just so that we and the person who posted this are on the same page. Otherwise, this would be like telling a DMV joke to a 5 year old.
So the joke goes like “So this person on Facebook changes their relationship status to single, and someone says ‘When did this happen?’ Except, they don’t add a question mark at the end. Anyways, the funny part is, get ready for this, they may or may not been dating. DID I BLOW YOUR FUCKING MIND?!”
i don’t understand why so many people are so disappointed about this site “not getting funnier”. it only posts about a very specific topic and it will inevitably get boring after so many entries you have seen. It’s not like there is an endless amount of new and different funny scenarios that can happen on facebook. this site just has a rather short life-span of interest, get over it
Yeah, I read it searching for the real gems here and there but I realize most of it’s going to be rather repetitive because, quite frankly, a lot of the people who use FB are stupid about using it in the SAME WAY ALL THE TIME.
So if your going to say “just dismantle this site” why the fk don’t you just remove it from your friends? It’s still funny for the people who are adding it and havent seen the “old” stuff. Just delete it from your friends if your sick of it. No reason for Failbooking to be dismantled. Its funny as hell.
Actually this is a bug on Facebook–when you want to simply “remove” your relationship status from showing up (i.e., take it off the list of items that people can see, or just remove the status to ” “, it DEFAULTS to “Single”. I did that once, and next thing I knew, it was saying “(Reciproxinnet) is Single”. Evidently any change in your relationship status will be made public; Facebook won’t let you opt out of that, and that includes just trying to take it off the public info.
This happened to me- my boyfriend, who LIVES with me, broke up with me by taking our relationship status off of Facebook, instead of walking 20 feet into the other room and telling me he was breaking up with me. So I found out through a facebook relationship status change that he was breaking up with me. I still have to live with him, too, because of financial reasons.
There are three questions in this picture – True or False?
In case you’ve forgotten, questions end with question marks, like this: ? For example: What? or When did this happen?
They teach you this s**t in first grade, damnit. IT’S NOT THAT F**KING DIFFICULT
Just dismantle this site. It’s not getting any funnier, just more and more terrible.
I completely agree. The older stuff had me laughing hysterically, while this newer stuff is just annoying. A lot of people apparently don’t know what funny is.

I totally agree with Rob, if you hate it so much then how about instead of wasting your time throwing a fit about it you just don’t go on it?
Thumbs down. The sender can easily be lying about him being her boyfriend.
Dumb. Dumb. Dumb. Dumb.
jeez. It’s just supposed to be humorous. smile and move on retards
Amen. THANK you. if you dont like the site, dont fucking visit the site, people.
“Supposed to be” is not the same as “is”. Indeed, there are some funny things brought up on this site, but this is not one of them. And if something isn’t funny, then please don’t complain about people saying it isn’t funny. Just laugh at something that isn’t humorous and move on.

*sigh* If you look back at the very first posts, it was great. Now, it just gives me hemorrhoids.
Then go do something else instead of complaining. It’s not like you are FORCE to go on this site.
Really, who cares if it’s real or not….it’s still funny…
Totally agree! And the title is great
hihi i agree, thats where the joke is most of the time, no mather how good the post is, the titles kicks ass.
FAIL!!

you took the words out of my mouth

Wait what. Is the question mark no longer being put on keyboards. When did this happen.
That was lame and un neccacary. Really there isn’t even anything funny about that. That could very well not even be her boyfriend. Lame! You should post ACTUAL funny stuff.
Well, I found it funny. So to hell with all of you >:(
Find your own fails then if your gonna fxcking moan.
why do so many people that say they hate failbook, read failbook. These people obviously suffer from a mental defect or are forced to read it at gunpoint. Either way, these people truly suck.
You have my sword.
I think failbooking gets funnier and funnier.
I think it was his lack of question marks that drove them apart.
i think its funny
It makes it funnt when you know who these people are. If it is pointed out that a poster is someone’s relative or thier partner or something, then that’s where the humour comes from. If you didn’t know that was the boyfriend, then it’s just a random person asking a question.
I swear to god, some people signed up to this site need to get a sense of humour. Or stop coming here.
Even if it is the boyfriend, it’s not really that funny anyway…
Its just sad really…
I agree with the first three posters. @Jason: I brought marshmallows.
I hate it when people talk at people. This isn’t twitter. A reply is just as good.
What makes this funny is the title. I didn’t even snicker until I read it again.
^ hahaha sweet i just saw that too
Haha a quick end to a relationship.
The “Boyfriend” note isn’t an explanation of the joke, it’s just so that we and the person who posted this are on the same page. Otherwise, this would be like telling a DMV joke to a 5 year old.

ironic that i saw this on failbook’s twitter feed and it said: posted 1hr ago
im pretty certain i kno the girl who did this
sorry to hear she broke up with you man
ahahahahaha just kiddin!
nah lol not me but i kno the guy. i hate the girl tho. i pretty sure he does too now

lol! how mean, and how stupid of him lol.. we might know the reason why.. lol
Maybe she tried to tell her BF about a breakup in such a weird way? hahha really stupid
I could never stay with a guy who didn’t use question marks either.
Sorry mate, she made it Facebook official. Move on.
Are the people on this site’s vote page retarded? This is crap.
EX-BOYFRIEND.
So if your going to say “just dismantle this site” why the fk don’t you just remove it from your friends? It’s still funny for the people who are adding it and havent seen the “old” stuff.

isn’t it only 28minutes ago?
Hey! That’s how I found out I was getting dumped, too.
someone should of commented after and said “about an hour ago”

FACEBOOK POLICY FAIL.
the same exact thing happened to me

So I found out through a facebook relationship status change that he was breaking up with me. I still have to live with him, too, because of financial reasons.

because the title makes it THAT much funnier
