"There&amp;amp;#8217;s been quite a bit of hubbub about Google+, the latest effort by the big G to get into the social networking game. But since only a handful of peeps (apparently, mostly dudes) were lucky enough to score access to things like circles early, the rest of us will have to have to settle for Facebook and Twitter. But oh what delicious material we have to work with, especially when it comes to Facebook&amp;amp;#8217;s status updates. Passive aggressive status updates on Facebook entertain me to no end. Are you tickled by them as well? I&amp;amp;#8217;ve noticed quite an increase in these goodies lately and I&amp;amp;#8217;m positive the summer heat is to blame. We&amp;amp;#8217;ve cooked up a list of some of the best passive aggressive updates&amp;amp;#8212;we&amp;amp;#8217;ll also let you know hot to deal with &amp;amp;#8216;em: 1. A friend posts this: &amp;amp;#8220;Been playing &amp;amp;#8216;F**k You&amp;amp;#8217; by Cee Lo on repeat all day. DON&amp;amp;#8217;T ask.&amp;amp;#8221; What he or she really means: &amp;amp;#8220;I&amp;amp;#8217;m pissed off and I really do want you to ask me so I can vent.&amp;amp;#8221; What you should do: If you&amp;amp;#8217;re feeling naughty, you could say, &amp;amp;#8220;OMG! I love that song, too!&amp;amp;#8221; If you&amp;amp;#8217;re feeling generous, send the person a private message. 2. A friend posts this: &amp;amp;#8220;Well, *that* was interesting.&amp;amp;#8221; What he or she really means: &amp;amp;#8220;I can&amp;amp;#8217;t believe what just happened. I wish someone would ask me about this so I could tell them without calling too much attention to myself.&amp;amp;#8221; What you should do: If you&amp;amp;#8217;re feeling naughty you might say, &amp;amp;#8220;It sure was!&amp;amp;#8221; If you&amp;amp;#8217;re feeling generous, ask the person if everything&amp;amp;#8217;s OK via private message. 3. A friend posts this: &amp;amp;#8220;Thanks to all my REAL friends who remembered to say happy bday yesterday.&amp;amp;#8221; What he or she really means: &amp;amp;#8220;I can&amp;amp;#8217;t believe only 532 of my 798 friends acknowledged my birthday. How rude!&amp;amp;#8221; What you should do: Nothing. If you&amp;amp;#8217;re feeling extremely generous (and if you didn&amp;amp;#8217;t already), you could comment &amp;amp;#8220;Happy birthday!&amp;amp;#8221; in response. 4. A friend posts this: &amp;amp;#8220;&amp;amp;#133;&amp;amp;#8221; What he or she really means: &amp;amp;#8220;I&amp;amp;#8217;m bored.&amp;amp;#8221; It&amp;amp;#8217;s also similar to #2 so proceed accordingly. What you should do: If you&amp;amp;#8217;re feeling especially naughty, you could &amp;amp;#8220;like&amp;amp;#8221; this status. If you&amp;amp;#8217;re feeling generous, send a private message. 5. A friend posts this: &amp;amp;#8220;Hmm, looks like I&amp;amp;#8217;ll be doing the dishes again. Thanks for being SO helpful, hon!&amp;amp;#8221; What he or she really means: &amp;amp;#8220;My partner is lazy and I want everyone to know it!&amp;amp;#8221; What you should do: Nothing. Let the lovers squabble amongst themselves. If you&amp;amp;#8217;re feeling naughty, though you could say something like &amp;amp;#8220;Dishpan hands are HAWT.&amp;amp;#8221; Do your friends post lots of passive aggressive Facebook status updates? How do you respond to them? Or maybe you just ignore them?
