Facebook, Stop the Madness, My Head is Starting to Hurt

Logged into Facebook this morning after not having logged in there for a long while. My eyes started bleeding. Stop the madness Facebook, stop the madness.

Best viewed large of course.

Wait, what's that you say about a "human pet invitation?" Hold on, I'll be right back...

    You are such a popular one there, aren't you?

  4. gwendolyn true (48 months ago | reply)

    No kidding - how do people have time for all of these applications?!

  5. DuckBrown (48 months ago | reply)

    I think there should be a "Facebook has jumped the shark" invitation.

  6. fourkicks (48 months ago | reply)

    oh my god, it's awful, isn't it? i despise these applications.

  7. Ms. Jane Hudson (48 months ago | reply)

    I think it's all trash 'cept the Sexy Sammy requests.

    You are clearly a facebook slut :-)

  9. josy.hilton (48 months ago | reply)

    You are clearly a facebook slut :-)

    I hope not. Haha.

    The best would be to turn off notifications for these apps in the notifications menu. Then the madness will stop

  13. joedawson (48 months ago | reply)

    Thankfully they have the option to mark all and remove!

    i hate facebook.

  15. MrPhilDog (48 months ago | reply)

    Perhaps you should start a "stop the madness" Facebook group and invite all your contacts to it... on second thoughts...

    ;-)

  16. *jbird* (48 months ago | reply)

    No. Not okay. Makes me want to cancel my whole profile.

  17. ja | castillo (48 months ago | reply)

    You are right...it's madness the crap that permeates FB. I went in and cleaned out a ton of that stuff I had added. Seemed to be most of my contacts were playing with the services, so I just added. All it did was clutter things up and fill up my inbox.

    ugh...

    Thank you.

    These facebook apps are like a rash. If the iphone FB page could just include poking it would be my choice on which ever device.

  19. Gone-Walkabout (48 months ago | reply)

    painful, block all

  20. mih.popieluch (48 months ago | reply)

    oh boy, how many friends do you have?

  21. JeffDonovan (48 months ago | reply)

    I've told all of my friends not to send me any app requests, which has largely stemmed the flood. People who keep it up run the risk of getting deleted.

  22. oakraidr (48 months ago | reply)

    HA.... Maybe facebook will limit friends just like Flickr did in the past. That should help...

  23. a midwest girl (48 months ago | reply)

    i knew there was a reason i didn't get on the facebook bandwagon.

    thanks for confirming it.

  24. QuantumJedi (48 months ago | reply)

    Wow, now I know I did the right thing by not joining FaceBook or MySpace or any other site like that. This Flickr account is as close as I get to social networking.

    Few people really look at my photostream anyhow, so hey! No stress!

    Facebook is pure spam.

  27. macromaven (48 months ago | reply)

  28. mischiru (48 months ago | reply)

    I love the "ignore all" button a lot :)

    these applications are soooooooo nuts!! nice shot though ;-))

  31. simonseeber (48 months ago | reply)

    ignore, ignore, ignore. that's usually the first thing I do everytime I log into facebook.

    Auto-Block Facebook Apps 1.1

    This script will block app invites sent to you by friends. After the facebook profile page is loaded, it finds all the applications that your friends have invited you to and blocks them. Do not worry though, you can go to facebook.com/privacy.php?view=platform&ta b=all and unblock them.

    I tend to agree with Failblog.org. Their Facebook share button calls it FAILbook. +1 for that.

    I only signed up for it because some people I went on canoe trips with last summer asked me to. Never again. I'm sticking with places like Twitter and FriendFeed from now on. I still have Failbook, but I don't really use it.

  34. Mike the B (48 months ago | reply)

    Wow... i dont use facebook and guess what... I dont think I will.

  35. susan.beebe (48 months ago | reply)

    Yooooowwwwwwwzzzzzzzzzzaaaaa ... ok that's ridiculous! Ah.... ok... delete ALL button?!

  36. Joe Mac Stevens (48 months ago | reply)

    yeah. .I hate those facebook notifications.

  37. Sherri Jackson (48 months ago | reply)

    I block all of them. Makes life SO much easier.

  38. AmateurX (48 months ago | reply)

    ok, that's ridiculous.

  39. rollercoaster1122 (47 months ago | reply)

    i hate these. i just delete them all now. i dont even care for them anymore.

  41. Debby in Calgary (41 months ago | reply)

    That is a nightmare!

  42. kosso (39 months ago | reply)

    This is exactly why I ignore all this crap and don't add useless 'games/apps. Also, why I don't add the idiots who post them all the time. ;)

    great screenshot though :)

  43. ~Natti*~ [deleted] (39 months ago | reply)

    OMG I had a lot but never THAT many!

  44. t h e r e s a t (37 months ago | reply)

    That's crazy.
