I don't think it's whining - I think a lot of the messages are really worthless and make me lose respect for the person who is typing them.
Should you have had respect for that person in the first place?
And a girl I was thinking of dating got into an argument with a couple of friends of mines on my wall. First of all, that wasn't the type of thing I want other people doing on my wall. Second of all, if the girl was smart, she would have noticed that one of the friends she was cursing out was in my 'Top Friends' list and I had pictures from her wedding. I lost so much respect for her that I put her on limited profile, wrote her an e-mail asking her to apologize (I wanted to give her a chance to reclaim her dignity) and erased the whole conversation. After she gave a grudging, one-word "apology", I didn't even want to deal with her anymore, and removed her as a friend. Her FaceBook behavior made me dislike her in real life.
I think if it's something you can't just skip over with a "that person is having a bad day," or "well, that's silly and I can't be bothered," then you probably don't really like the person anyway. I see that as my responsibility to either block or defriend, not suffer through.

Well, that would primarily be because you never got one.

Coming from this moron, I shall say this is why I refuse to accept some people's friend requests.

I completely agree. And now that my mom is on FaceBook, I've been using it a lot less.
