Vaguebooking is any update on a social network (although primarily Facebook) that is intentionally vague. Status updates which fall under the category of vaguebooking can be long or short, but most comprise just a few simple words. Regardless of the length they all have one thing in common – to elicit a response from friends and followers.

While the majority of us will just be clear about something that has happened or why we’re upset, vaguebookers take great delight in beating around the metaphorical bush. Seeking attention while giving away as little as humanly possible.

4. Hide the true motives and you control the narrative.

That's my point.

All of these killers have their social media scrubbed prior to the release of a name. It makes any evidence of motive almost impossible to uncover.

It's been happening for years.

You know, RELIABLE media? Like...CNN? MSNBC? FOX!

See, RELIABLE media is hearsay that you've been told by OTHER people is hearsay you can trust, as opposed to UNRELIABLE media, which is hearsay that others HAVEN'T told you is acceptable hearsay that you can trust. You'd think you media-haters would get it right.
