I have been looking for some inspiration when I update my status on Facebook, so I sat down with a blank page and put together a list of decent Facebook status suggestions and ideas.
Obviously some of the best Facebook status lines are the ones that are personal or related to current events, but as I don’t know you and currently don’t own a crystal ball I can’t offer any of those.
A few other things that work well with Facebook status are:
Jokes
Using music lyrics
Playing on words
Using a link to another website (assuming the other website is worth looking at)
So here’s my list, I hope you agree that they are better than the usual “is watching TV” status that I see time and time again.
Facebook Status Ideas
“has just made the internet eight words longer”
“is moving through time at an incredible speed”
“has the force”
“is too drunk to update his status”
“is on your mind”
“wants to know why Facebook wants to know what he’s doing”
“is on a wing and a prayer”
“is raising the terror level”
“is slippery when wet”
“is making the most of right now”
“is a friend in need”
“is number one, so why try harder?”
“is open to suggestions”
“is beating his current record for number of consecutive days alive”
“is proof reading to make sure he hasn’t any words out”
“just had a reality cheque….it bounced”
“is playing russian roulette”
“is poking himself”
“wonders what the word for “dots” looks like in braille”
“places you under a pedestal”
“wonders how you know when you have run out of invisible ink?”
“just got scared half to death…..twice”
“is planning on being spontaneous….tomorrow”
“wonders why Japanese kamikaze pilots bothered wearing helmets”
“wonders if dyslexic devil worshipers sell their soul to Santa”
Update - 18th December 2008 - Here are some more of the funniest Facebook statuses available:
