facebook like-puppet

a person who "likes" every comment on everything that they post, even if they don't. also known to "like" some posts because of who posted it, even if its facebook garbage. to feed his habit, a like-puppet will even go to someone else's wall and "like" their posts and comments with reckless abandon, because the need to let everybody know that they approve is constant and overwhelming. he'll say that he's got it under control, and to prove it, he'll facebook for a day or so with almost no "likes". until the guilt of denying others the affirmation that they deserve finally overwhelms him, resulting in a "like" binge. this is not pretty, and you should never try to reason with him while he's in the throes of it. he's not there. he has become a facebook like-puppet. there is currently no known cure . we can only hope that enough posts/comments will be available for him, and try not to judge. IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU.
