Top 6 Passive Aggressive Memes

Vaguebooking is posting an intentionally vague status on a social media site (usually Facebook). This intentional vagueness is meant to prompt people to ask questions for more details.

For Example: If someone updates their Facebook status to say, “Why did I do that?”, people will likely comment and ask something like “Well, what did you do?”-

“They might as well include an obscure reference or quote.” – Attention Seeker

And then there is the DOUBLE VAGUEBOOK…

A vague response to a friend’s “vaguebooked” status update that requires a third party to understand the original vaguebooked status in order to interpret, comprehend, and/or appreciate the response.

If uncontrolled, double vaguebooking can turn into triple or even quadruple vaguebooking.
