You shouldn't post that!

There is a well-known public figure where I live named Brian James O'Neill II, commonly referred to as BJO. There was a local punk rock band that disbanded named BJO Speedwagon. Yesterday, I posted 'R.I.P. BJO Speedwagon' on a facebook page. Overnight, someone commented that "This is not funny. You shouldn't post stuff like this that's misleading. That's how rumors get started." Wait...rumors get started because people are stupid and think what they want to think...and I am responsible for how they think? Evidently, some people thought it was a reference to 'BJO' and not the band. Therefore, I shouldn't post how I felt about the band's demise. "You shouldn't post stuff like this that's misleading." I wonder if they are one of the people always 'liking' Lord J Dampnut's Twitter feed...

@JolietJake Yeah, it's always odd that the bad news gets so many 'likes'. People are weird.

Is it possible they thought you were referring to the RJO and not the BJO? Like not really reading what you said?

They have never heard of the band, and I did post it on a BJO page

@jerzgirl It was a local 'punk' band, they adopted it from R.E.O. and BJO

Misleading only because they have not understood. They are surely liking Donny Tweeters.

@JolietJake Oh this is one of the most common topic here... the bank does not move, I earned too little for what I posted, my discussions get too little attention. Too busy to complain to do something good.

I think some people are only happy if they have something to complain about

Does he actually get likes on his Twitter feed? There's no accounting for some people.

Some people can read but have no common sense. Don't mind them.
