Those on cell phone don't take time to look. Plus in this case. They should have looked at breaking news.

So I guess that does not show on a phone? Also I think it may also be the
"I wanna be first to break the news" syndrome...

I have a FB group and there is at least one person that responds to a question even though it has already been answered.

But there are quite a few people on FB that just post and post and post. Have one that posts numerous flowers. Not just one in a day but many.

Kidding.

People are excited. This happens whenever a big event happens.

Would it be nice if people didn't post a dozen different threads? Sure, but it's kind of the nature of the beast.
