Yes, you can post self-obsessively all day. Totally ridiculous things like

What you had for breakfast
How your bowel movements have been
How sick / knackered / hung over you are
How people are pissing you off at work
How excited / depressed / underwhelmed you are at the latest news about your local sports team
What a s**t day you're having
What a great day you're having
What your dog / cat / gerbil just did
What you had for lunch
Exactly when you have to go for the next meeting
Links to external sites like Youtube and BBC news
When you're going home

Can't imagine anybody being so pathetic as to do that.

What ? Oh.
