Hang on a minute. Why were those sad moments posted in FB in the first place, and not deleted subsequently, if users don't want to be reminded? Users publicise the events themselves, and FB is doing a great service to provide a free platform for those ungrateful people to broadcast them.

If those whiners blame FB to be insensitive, they can just delete their account and all the posts including such promotion will not appear anymore.

I thought I had talked about this before, but then crazy people in Melbourne, especially the "loaded" Chinese are still paying mega bucks for properties that worth less than of half the money.

Besides Chinese, loaded Indians and Sri Lankans are just as gullible. Join the crowd if you are a Gia Su buyer?
