Spiritual Facebook miss you status lines? Searching for Status Lines That Will Make You Think? Searching for some status update inspiration? I won’t bore you with stories about where these came from; I’ll just give you a list of funny and sarcastic statuses. I have tried to include the authors for the lines I did not develop on my own. And hey, if you know the source of an unattributed quote, feel free to leave that info as a comment at the bottom. “Finding a job in this economy is like playing Where’s Waldo?-except that Waldo is looking for a job, too.”
“If you think things can’t get worse, it’s probably only because you lack sufficient imagination.” – Social responses to status updates were captured by observing direct social feedback (i.e. likes and commenters) and (2) by informant reports on the interpersonal appraisal of participants’ status updates by their friends. In a German and a US sample, for direct social feedback neither extraversion nor social anxiety emerged as significant predictors.
For example, research presented last year at the meeting of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology (SPSP) showed how the site offers a dangerous medium for social comparison. People in that study with lots of Facebook friends had lower self-esteem, feeling worse about their place in life and their achievements if they’d just viewed their friends’ status updates, compared with people who hadn’t recently surfed the site. But for people with just a few Facebook friends, viewing status updates wasn’t a problem. Another study, detailed in the Sept. 13 issue of the journal Nature, found such Facebook friends can influence real-life actions of one another. In that study, one “get out the vote” message sent to 61 million Facebook users on Election Day 2010 led to 340,000 people casting ballots when they otherwise would not have.

Whenever I hop onto Facebook to do something specific—find a link I saved for later or see what’s happening on Buffer’s Facebook page, perhaps—something strange happens. Despite my best intentions to stay on track and accomplish my goal, I get sucked in. Suddenly I’m checking my own notifications, looking at what’s been recently posted and generally forgetting why I came to Facebook in the first place. This isn’t entirely by accident. There is science and psychology that explains why so many of us are glued to Facebook.
A recent study examined people’s Facebook statuses and whether there was an association between their personalities and their motivation behind what they posted. Of course we all have that person on Facebook who you know, for a fact, is just trying to get sympathy for everything coming down the road, but other statuses aren’t so obvious. The study of adult Facebook users found that personality had a lot to do with what people posted. For example, extraverts were all about posting social things on Facebook as a way to connect, those with low self-esteem were more likely to post things about their romantic relationships, conscientious people were drawn to posting things that would get a lot of “likes” (as in a lot of child-related stuff), and the narcissists, who use Facebook as a means to get validation, constantly post statuses about their accomplishments. You know the people I’m talking about: Look at me! Look at me! I just got my dream job and am making a million trillion a year! Ugh. Gag me with a spoon. See more info at here.
