Why do people put status updates about someone who’s NOT on Facebook so is blatantly not going to see it ~ their baby, their dog, someone who’s dead?

I miss you Grandma, I hope you’re having an absolute ball in heaven…… & are looking down thinking what an utter twat your Grandchild is for posting ridiculously pointless & attention-seeking status updates     ~ it wasn’t like this back in your day, was it?!!
