Facebook Status: Love 'em or Hate 'em?

Facebook statuses can mean a lot more than just "I'm doing this/that/the other thing". I saw this interesting article and I have to say that I'm equally an abuser of some of their examples (Hello, random Family Guy quotes!), and really really hate the others. The Vague Sympathy one always annoys me cus it's such a blatant request for concern, but if you wanted to keep it private, maybe don't mention it yourself in the first place!!
