25 Things I Hate About Facebook

Yep, we all know those obnoxious “25 Things” notes people are posting on their facebooks. And furthermore, we all know how lame they are – even if you did one… you must admit it. Either way, I bet you’ll find this week’s video quite funny. What do you hate about facebook?

If this video made you laugh or nod your head, post it on your wall! Share it with your friends!

    If anyone could ever put my grievances about Facebook into word and video form, you just did it. Facebook is a wicked hero indeed. Brilliant Julian.

  2. Laedelas Says:

    OH, gosh, dude, what don’t I hate about facebook? My mom has recently been pressuring me to let her onto my account so she can “catch up” on my siblings…that is CREEPY.

    “Join the group…Join…click ‘Join’.” Haha!

  3. mandeewidrick Says:

    This was awesome…I thought it couldn’t get any better, then “I’m sorry, I saw you were typing.” HA!! Good job. :)

  4. Julian Says:

    Thanks everyone for the comments! Glad you all loved the video! Thanks for watching!

  5. facebookcrazy Says:

  7. Julian Says:

    Thanks Aaron! Got some coffee right here with me actually… or is it pudding? Can’t tell. New video coming your way on Friday!

  8. Holly Says:

    Loved the one with the random guy that you don’t know in the people you might know. I’ve wondered for quite some time WHERE that list came from. Poor dude showing up in the side. The one time I did randomly friend that person, I got this message back: Do I know you? Never mind. I was trying to get rid of you. Hahaha.

    Not to mention, I keep getting creepy messages with “Hello sweetie” or the like as the subject line. YIKES! Or the friend requests from people in other countries whose profiles are ALL in another language (not sure which one!). Insanity. Thanks for the laugh.

  9. Keith Says:

    Brilliant. Not many videos can make me (literally)
    LoL, but this one did. Looking forward to seeing more
    from you :-)

  10. Julian Says:

    Thanks Keith! Glad it made you laugh. More on the way!

  11. Julian Says:

    Yeah it always gets on my nerves, haha. Thanks for the comment Holly!

  12. Keith Says:

    Serioulsy, that was some funny stuff. You should do more of these rants. I like to rant when eating ice cream (Really, I don’t know why either).

    Keith.

  13. renia Says:

    so…
    if I think that video is funny, and ask for a friend request what would it be?

  14. Julian Says:

    That would be perfectly okay with me! Glad you thought it was funny :)

  15. Meg Says:

    I’m sitting, waiting for Friday. What could beat this? We’ll just have to wait…

    Or you could ruin everyone elses week by telling me now.

    Nah, I’ll wait.

    25 Things I Hate About Facebook…

    It might seem odd to start a new, Facebook-oriented blog with an “I hate Facebook” post, but that’s us. We actively and voluntarily indulge in facebookness while being critical enough to notice its flaws. That, and because this video …

  20. Hilton Says:

    Hey there!
    As a complete third party commoner in the situation, speaking for the rest of the third party viewers, I would like to say that I hope to be seeing many more of your videos! The internet is loaded with plenty of stupid shows, films, and videos; this one is especially funny and hits home with every point.

    Keep it coming!

  21. Julian Says:

    Thanks man! I’m glad you’re enjoying watching as much as I’m enjoying creating!

  22. Alex Says:

    Great video. The one thing I hate about Facebook…FACEBOOK. Lets all move over to twitter :)

    That was the FUNNIEST thing! My friend put it on her facebook page, so funny.

  28. Dalynn Says:

    I’m probably one of the ones you think is too old to be on FB… ;-) ….not a grandma, but I do have 2 teens.

    But I still think your video was hilarious!
    good to know I’m not the only one who doesn’t enjoy the ‘gift’ and ‘poke’ thing.

  29. Aron Says:

    That was so so so true. It’s posted on the wall. I do hope people watch it and think before poking, showing relationship status and posting stupid status updates.

    Thanks for a good laugh on a sunday morning in Denmark.

  30. Karen B Says:

    This is completely true! Facebook is just annoying, no matter how you try to clean up the page and fix the privacy. It’s annoying and so many things they have is ridiculous… poking? Gifts? Yes, annoying! News feeds? I don’t care what everyone has done including people on other people’s lists! Blah!

  31. Bill Bruce Says:

    Very funny

  32. Nyesha Says:

    I loved the 25things i hate about facebook video, but u should have mentioned how annoying it is that all wall posts are stored on there and you have to delete each entry individually.

  33. Mediavorous » Blog Archive » Links for March 1st through March 3rd Says:

    [...] 25 Things I Hate About Facebook! « JulianSmith.tv | New Videos Every Friday! – This video is quite funny, brilliant and dead-on satire: sort of like "The Evolution of Dance" a couple of years back although more narrowly-targeted to the social media obsessed rather than anybody who has ever danced. It provoked me instantly to add JulianSmith.tv to my RSS reader. Enjoy! [...]

  34. Michelle Says:

    That was great! Thanks for the laugh!

  35. krissy Says:

    HIGH-larious, thanks for sharing!

  37. Julian Says:

    You’re welcome! Glad I could make you smile for a couple minutes :)

  38. Dennis Says:

    This video is hilarious. Finally we have a parody for all us FB junkies.

  39. k Says:

    Hhaha, this made me laugh! Very funny, I pretty much agree with all of it. I would post it on my wall, but I’m not on facebook anymore. Just too many things I didn’t like about it. (haha, I guess I’m just an uncool person. Oh well :P )

    Oh and I really liked the hava nagila tune (:

  40. Reem Says:

    Hilarious video… and everything in it is soooo true… especially the people you may (not) know box…. haha… Great job man!!!

  41. emily Says:

    What I really really hate about Facebook is the fact that the word Facebook is underlined as a misspelled word anytime you type it ON Facebook. This has always really annoyed me and I’m sure the geniuses who created Facebook could figure out a way to correct it. Wow, I’m glad I finally have a forum to vent this Facebook anger.

  42. corey Says:

    Hi Julian Smith, I don’t like the facebook pokes, gifts, the double pictures, the facebook gossip, the ads those are annoying and the events invite what is the point in that. I liked the video it made me laugh

  43. Jeff and Ashley Says:

    love it

    Thanks for lampooning all the useless stuff on facebook. If it wasn’t such a time waster, I might actually use it.

  51. robyn Says:

    At 36, I’m going to have to come to terms with the fact I’m probably one of those ‘old’ people mentioned in your list (sigh.) – but I just wanted to tell you how brilliant and well-done this was. I’ve Tweeted it and put it on my wall – and I’m still giggling over it about 8 hours later. Thanks and can’t wait to see the new stuff!

  52. basefook Says:

    The thing I hate second most about Facebook are the people that hate Facebook so much but still continue to use it. The thing I hate the most about Facebook are the people who make lists of how much they hate it.

  53. aymcd Says:

    CROWD: “We are all individuals!!!”

  60. Mattie Says:

    So, I thought this was hilarious. I’m wondering though, I posted it to my facebook, and the next day it was gone/taken off. Was this facebook? (If so.. it’d be #26.) I also enjoyed your other videos as well. I especially like the “Get Your Own iPhone” series you have started (as one who doesn’t have one). Look forward to seeing more things from you!

  61. De'Ann Sprankle Says:

  65. Mary Says:

    you forgot about how every 2 weeks, they update Facebook, so everyone subscribing has to re-learn how to use it. and what about people who update their picture (along with their status) every 15 hours? i dont ‘care that you’re tired, and or in class. and yes, i too am tired of clicking “ignore”.

    Hey Julian, I want to say thanks for the great video and the hard work you put into it! Ever since I watched this video I started watching all your videos and I quickly became a huge fan! I really appreciate that your videos are clean and appropriate for everyone! There just aren’t enough sources of media like that anymore. So thanks!!

    [...] Kind of busy with work last week but it won’t stop me to share this cool video produced by Julian Smith. You will definitely laugh out loudly and enjoy it. I totally agreed on all the 25 things Julian Smith hates about Facebook. [...]

  72. Tom Says:

    My favorite annoying things about Facebook:

    1. Pass a Drink – what the hell’s the point about passing a virtual drink? People already drink TOO MUCH these days!!
    2. OVSs (obvious vanity shots) – a term I invented & put in Urban Dictionary, refers to any photo that someone obviously took of themselves, which leads into my next annoyance,
    3. Pouty smile photos – seems like there are tons of photos out there where people just can’t help pouting for the camera, which leads me to my next point,
    4. Scissor Gang Mafia signs – I dunno how the peace symbol got turned on it’s side or transmogrified into 3 fingers up, one down, thumb extended but it’s just stoopid!
    5. Lil’ Green Patch – sometimes I wonder if everyone who posts, sends & receives a plant really does save a whole acre of rainforest, seems too good to be true.

    And my final annoyance:

    6. Overuse of the word “awesome”.

  73. Seán Says:

    Nice one Julian, I forward very little on but I’ve passed this to all my mates & it’s a big hit in Dublin, hilarious video!

    PS. you haven’t credited your actors!
    That blonde girl who pokes you & de-tags herself is ridiculously cute ;]

  75. Stefanie Says:

    Haha wow, I must be way more behind on Facebook than I thought, because I just saw this. Made me laugh really hard in the middle of finals, so definitely worth it!

  76. Chelsea Says:

    thanks :)

  77. Christine Says:

    Okay, you may have 25 things about facebook that you hate… but you left out so many more annoying things that people send. e.g. hugs, squirt qun, food fight etc… what the heck? and why oh why does everyone seem to want me to take the bleeping IQ test?!?!?! Who cares? Not me. Okay, I could go on but, won’t.

  78. Rocio Says:

    Hey Julian! i guess your video has been all around the world by now.. but i’ve just watched it a little while ago.. and since then i began watching a lot more of your videos…
    I really like your work, you’re really creative and talented :)

    Keep on doing lots of videos, you already have fans here (like this girl here –> me ) that will be always checking out your new stuff.
    And congrats on the success, you really deserve it.
    And i’m passing all your funny videos to my friends to see them!

  99. David Says:

    This was cool! I love your videos Julian!! I’m really inspired now. :)

  100. Jessica Says:

    I hate it when people post causes in their status and want you to do the same. “If you support ______ post it in your status! It’s time we all do something!” I wanna say, so then ACTUALLY DO something! It’s especially annoying when followed by a statistic like “only 7% of the people who read this will have the heart to post it” or a guilt-comment like “if you don’t, you don’t care about ______.” Please.

  101. Christina Says:

    Great Videos! Just curious what camera(s) you’ve been using in your recent shoots – it looks fantastic!

  102. Abi Kellogg Says:
