That’s Not My is a multi-award winning series of over 50 touchy-feely books for babies and toddlers. They include bright, colorful illustrations with textures to touch and feel, helping young kids to develop language and sensory skills. Recently, however, one spinoff “expanded” the series for adults, too.
British satirical website The Poke has just released a parody of the popular series called “That’s Not My Facebook Friend…” It’s funny, direct, and most importantly, accurate. The funny pictures perfectly describe all of our contacts on the platform we aren’t very proud of but maintain for one reason or another. Which reminds me, gotta go unfollow a few people.

According to Pew Research Center, around seven-in-ten Americans use Facebook to connect with one another, engage with news content, share information, and entertain themselves. YouTube is the only other online platform measured that matches Facebook’s reach (73% of adults report using the video-sharing site). But certain online platforms, most notably Instagram and Snapchat, have an especially strong following among young adults.

Interestingly, some Facebook users reported they had recently taken steps to moderate their use of the site such as deleting the app from their phone or taking a break from the platform every now and then. But despite these findings and amid some high profile controversies, Facebook users as a whole were just as active on the site in 2019 as they were in 2018. Roughly three-quarters of Facebook users (74%) visit the site daily, including about half who do so several times a day.

People really related to these funny pictures
The one from the last picture is not your FB friend neither. She's just deactivated her account.
True. Kinda missed a trick here, I think it should've read something like 'That’s (what would’ve been) my Facebook Friend :(

Year after year I am surviving after deleting my Facebook account. Must be at least six year by now, maybe seven or eight. I do not feel deprived of anything.
Same here. Too many ethical lapses and controversies surrounding Facebook.

LOL, upvoted! On a side note, though, while we're on the subject, I have a response to that slide in general. Not everyone opposed to immigration is a racist. It depends a lot on the impact it has a person's local community (and then there are a lot of knuckleheads who don't like it because they are racist and/or brainwashed). Half the people I work with are immigrants and most are awesome. I'm a 3rd-generation immigrant. I don't have a problem with legal immigration so long as there are limits (which there are in the US as in every country). But opposing immigration just isn't necessarily racist.

Everyone is at least a little bit racist, even if they don't think they are. So, if you cut off all friends that are racist, then you will have no friends.

Or this... "I'm so sick and tired... I don't know what to do... Followed by 300 people asking what's wrong but they either never answer you or the answer with "nothing, I don't wanna talk about it!"
My former (20 years ago) coworker who finds every opportunity to remind us all that she's working on a PhD in something vaguely metaphysical.
It's the vaguebookers that bother me the most. "Pray for my family. It's just so horrible". Its just another attention seeking g move. I get not wanting to share sensitive information but just don't say anything at all.
My other non-friend posts each time they block somebody so we know they wield the power.
"Illeguls taking our jobs" My response: You pick strawberries or apples for a living? Clean hotel toilets? Gee, so sorry, mate.
In America years ago these immigrants started a campaign of "Steal our jobs". Not a single American took them up on the offer to steal their horrible job.

does anyone even talk like that person whose language sounds "ridiculous"
I never was on FB....well, ok, I was, but only for six months. 8 years by now
Not a fan of Facebook but I do find it hilarious that the mob is angry at it for not goosestepping perfectly with Twitter. Maybe Zuckerborg is not entirely a leftist meat puppet.
I just had a FB friend move in with me but go off about how FB friends can't be real friends.
