Facebook diaries- The ADJECTIVE !!

For quite some time I have been noticing this really weird trend in the way people write there names on Facebook.  It all began with adjective middle names and I saw  Sam sweet Mehra's and Rahul genius Kumar's flooding my notifications. Then soon the trend shifted to using movie titles in names , and then came the Era of Sana "masakali" Gupta and Rudra "dabangg" Sharma. It was fairly tolerable so far, but then I came across this amazing profile, and my oh my, it wasn't just another "ADJECTIVE" middle name.
The guy has a profile picture in which he was TRYING to pose with a beer bottle. His name read "LIBIDINOUS xyz " .

a few days later I saw the profile again (I regret not pushing him off the list in the very first place)
a new name
a new adjective
"AUDACIOUSLY xyz"...

The complexity of his name grew after every passing day. After a week of learning 7 new complex words which did not describe him at all, I decided to put him of my list.
I am not anti middle names, but at times it just gets really weird.
I love my name, I would never want it to be, Jennifer "cute" sung
or Jennifer" intelligent" sung for that matter..

So its let people know your qualities by your acts and not by your Facebook names.
:)

ps: The names used are ficititous, though highly inspired from real life
:P

    Hi,

    1st of all Wish you & your family a very Happy Diwali that bring lots of happiness and prosperity in your life and around.

    Hmm you are right , changing the name is itself feel weird especially when its facebook.

    I too has noticed this and more of that its hard to figure out else we do a lookup to find whoz that person in our FL.

    But lots of ppl have this mentality to seek attention , so I calls them attention seekers ;).
