“The State Of LinkedIn” Twitter Page Exposes The Cringiest And Most Out-Of-Touch Posts On LinkedIn (30 Pics)
InterviewOnce upon a time, LinkedIn was a professional resource used to virtually track our career trajectories. It was an easy way to make connections with fellow professionals and allow companies to check out where you’re working and what you’ve accomplished recently. It’s not technically a social media site, however somewhere along the line, it started transitioning into a place where successful (we’ll use that word generously) people decided to start flaunting their wealth and sharing incredibly cringey posts…
That’s where The State of LinkedIn Twitter account comes into play. The page calls the site "a breeding ground for lies & brown-nosing", so down below, we’ve gathered some of the most hilarious tweets exposing false and ridiculous posts from LinkedIn that might give you secondhand embarrassment. Keep reading to also find interviews we were lucky enough to receive from the creator of The State of LinkedIn and LinkedIn Business Strategist, Salina Yeung.
Be sure to upvote the posts you find most atrocious, and let us know in the comments if you’ve ever encountered cringey or downright false claims on LinkedIn. Then, if you’d like to check out another Bored Panda article detailing what a cesspool LinkedIn has become in recent years, you can find our last post featuring The State of LinkedIn right here!

Time to time we highlight good things on LinkedIn, this is one of them times
Did BP really censor the name of the store? I shouldn't be surprised, but somehow that still tickles me. 😂
Hmm . . . well, the kid would be ahead of his time. I'd say we've still got a few decades before trees are fictional. So I'll give him that one. 😉
Just eat have created a new thing called “lunch hour”
Not sure how good this is
The signs on the windows are more telling than this little tale.
You’ve just ruined 5 perfectly good tennis balls
I don't get this. I'm a cabbie. Even during the worst of the pandemic i still had 15-20 rides a day. No more airports, barbers or bars but still groceries, doctors, train stations or road assistance calls.
So muggers know which car to hide behind so they can hit you over the head and steal that Rolex.
Even as a youth I didn't get to have "the sleep of youth". What is this dude huffing?
Typical LinkedIn bollocks
Last time I checked, Cash machines only give out notes
I don't know what country you guys are in, but where I'm from they dispense coins too
Rather than taking his photo - he could have used your phone to contact his family.......
Yeah she didn’t say that. The best quote my 7 year old brother said was from a movie. “Im ugly, ur ugly, we’re all ugly, ugly is the new beautiful. Besides, how would a 7 year old know the word perseverance? I only found out about that word today
Just buy a meal you scrub
Ok maybe slow here but isn't LinkedIn meant to be professional? I see heaps of jokes about it? 🤷♀️
I don’t know what’s worse, the post or the comment
The best way to deal with this is simply to say: “Have a great day.” That way, you can remain dignified and professional, thus avoiding conflict and stress.
Well some people voted Boris in , I wouldn't class that as non- cringeworthy
How did my bags make their way into the picture
This could be one that goes down in history as being the best to feature on this page
How does one even use their hand when they wear their watch like this?
Get in the bin
I'm sure your wife really appreciated your ability to multitask and send emails while she was birthing your child. What a tool...
This is brilliant
Wait, what just happened? Who are you? or was this just some random event that a kid all dressed up for prom(but with no date??) Happened to just be walking around looking for a ride instead of just borrowing his parents car like everyone else. And he just wanted a ride to prom? how did you meet his parents? And where the freak is his prom date?? I'm so lost🤔😒😒
Obvious ridiculousness aside - how do you type while using a desk like this? I can barely tap my phone screen to change music while walking on a treadmill from all the bouncing around my steps cause.
And making sure that corporations and investors don't contribute their fair share towards the welfare of others so that they have to work weekends to keep going - nice work.
Wearing a poncho should be a strict requirement for all footballers.
It needs a banana.... I reckon it's really tiny........
Good morning…
That house isn't big enough for 26 bedrooms, let alone seven kitchens. The way they describe their house sounds like The way a little kid describes their dream house. With no actual sense of reality....
My mom disabled her Linkedin 7 years ago. She still gets job offers from the damned thing. She has terminal cancer, go away. 😬😬😬😬
