Facebook is a public forum that is meant principally for networking. If that's a little too ordinary and unexciting for you, perhaps livening things up by annoying your Facebook Friends appeals to you. To annoy all of your 439 besties, there are a few things you can do to get on their nerves. Be obnoxious, invasive, give people more than they want to know, and show the world why you’re such a big deal, and you can have Facebook Friends deserting you in droves!
These repetitive patterns and tricks will be sure to decrease your Friend list and may even get people to stop talking to you "in real life" as well!

Steps
- 1Treat Facebook like Twitter. Keep adding updates on the most mundane things, such as, “I just woke up,” “I’m tired,” “This oatmeal tastes like garbage,” “My dog is barking right now.” Assume that people want to know every second of your life—don’t hold back. If you’re on the toilet, bring your computer along and share it with the world. After all, nothing brings Facebook Friends closer than sharing bowel movements and eating habits.
- 2Update how much you love your significant other. Constantly mention things such as, “Stacey is the greatest gf in the world,” or “You rock my socks, Jake!”, or "JC and I are soooooooo in love!" This will make all your single friends annoyed that they aren’t in a relationship and they'll soon feel like you’re rubbing it in their face. Try to be cheesy and unrealistic when it comes to saying why you love your significant other so much.
- If you don’t have a real partner, write down how much you love your worldly gadgets, such as, “OMG! I LOVE MY NEW IPHONE/IPAD/ITHINGY!” Rub it in everyone’s face that they don’t have the spare funds to get their own widget or "latest gadget." Act like a big shot and prepare to show off.
- 3Update about Mob Wars, Farmville/Cityville, and other Facebook applications. Did you level up? Did you find a little, lost, abandoned, black sheep? If so, tell people about it. Expand by asking your Friends to help you get that hot air balloon on Farmville or to help your crops grow while you’re out of town. They’ll love you for it.
- 4Abuse upper and lowercase letters. Upper and lower case every other letter. It doesn’t matter what you type about, just utilize this method as much as possible. It’ll take forever for your Friends to decode, especially if you write long-winded paragraphs on their walls. Or, SHOUT all the time and act like you haven't a clue why it's annoying.
- 5Pretend to lose your phone or contact lists every other day and ask for your Friends' numbers each time. To take it up a notch, send mass messages out asking for everyone’s numbers. That way, whenever someone replies, your Friends get notification after notification with something that has nothing to do with them.
- 6Invite your Friends to as many causes and groups as you can find. It may be “Help 1,000 People Get Rice” or “Raise Awareness for Cancer,” but whatever it is, invite people every day to causes that are near and dear to your heart.
- 7Every time your Friends are online, contact them through Facebook chat. Once they respond, ask them how they are, but keep the conversation slow by explaining what you did today. Don’t talk about anything significant—just bring back the old days of AIM.
- 8Post every music video you watch on YouTube.
- 9Constantly preach and proselytize about religion and politics.
- 10Oblige everyone to repost your postings.
- 11Proclaim how YOUR baby is the most unique, gifted, and intelligent baby in the world. Nobody else's baby is nearly as smart or as beautiful or as unique as yours. Make certain to also allow your entire existence to be defined and validated by your new baby, because he or she is certain to be your best friend for the rest of your life. Set your baby's photo (which looks identical to any other baby ever born) as your profile picture.
- 12Post timely statements frequently and regularly. Exclaim your desire or demand for coffee every morning, or proclaim "TGIF" every Friday, because your Friends will be thankful for the reminder that it's Friday.
- 13Post vague and passive-aggressive complaints about another person for the rest of your Friends to see. After all, where's the fun in confronting the actual person when you can play the victim before everyone else instead?
- 14Make sure to comment on every single entry, no matter how irrelevant your opinion.
- 15Paste song lyrics without giving credit or context.
- 16Post a note or upload a picture and to make sure no one will miss it, tag every single person in your Friend list on it.
- 17Use mass messaging instead of creating events to invite people for an occasion.
- 18Exclaim how much you can't stand when people complain about something on Facebook. Your Friends will especially enjoy the fact that you are complaining about complaining.
- 19Expect a much more "manageable" number of Facebook Friends. That was your aim, right?
