Either by subject matter/title or in terms of the community.
Mines probably the Dull Men’s Club, fantastic community and riveting content
Haunting_Top6382@reddit
Group For People Who Appreciate Quality Hand Dryers
IdiotBearPinkEdition@reddit
I met my husband in a group made by the main admin of a Fallout New Vegas fan page back when those were big
It was originally fallout themed but turned into just a regular friendship group. It's 11 years old now. There's been a few longtime friendships, marriages (including mine), divorces, deaths, babies born from people meeting in that group. We were pretty close knit before we all grew up and got jobs
The dude also made the group Animals in Predicaments, which got fucking massive and eventually sold off. I'm an admin of that group, but I don't really use facebook anymore

Middle aged women smokers

Now this one is a little open to interpretation.
Is the group just themed around ladies in their middle years who enjoy a cigarette or similar ?
Or is it something more ominous that involves hickory chips😳
TelephoneOrnery1394@reddit
It’s a group where women post selfies and stuff of them smoking. I posted a selfie years ago and now have regular clients. I basically face time men whilst I smoke, we chat about all sorts.I charge £20 for 15 minutes for my regulars

Exceedingly well done to you. Brilliant way to fund your cigs😁😎👍🏻
robinthebum@reddit
I'm on one where a guy just hates on Stuart Little. It's great
MazerTanksYou@reddit
Airside NI, it's for aviation fans in Northern Ireland. Great bunch of people who love any question except airport parking codes and when the Antanov is due in.

I’d wager it wouldn’t take a camper van owner with a penchant for Ukrainian heavy lift fixed wing aircraft very long to blot his copybook in that group.🤔
MazerTanksYou@reddit
The question is asked weekly, and there's places for a camper to park up.. And apps that show the big bird coming in. I can't say anything, one of the reasons I chose my house was due to it being close to planes coming in to land.
Reddit____user___@reddit
Well chosen😊😎👍🏻
I’d be doing the same
That, or proximity to a particular racing circuit.👍🏻
MazerTanksYou@reddit
Thanks, I got this. King Charles on approach the day after the Queen passed. I waved.
Reddit____user___@reddit
Decent range😎😎😎👌🏻
Affectionate_Grab902@reddit
Won't be due for a while, sadly
MazerTanksYou@reddit
It's here every week.. The little bro of the one the Russians destroyed.

"A group where we all pretend to be moths". I wondered if the name was some kind of joke/decoy but nope, just people talking about being moths.
highrouleur@reddit
That must really draw people to it like
Reddit____user___@reddit
Do butterflies get cut any slack or do they tend to get ostracised ?
bitterlemon80@reddit
No slack at all, they're known as "the day dwellers".

Perfectly reasonable👍🏻

Sadly it's just a ton of punching down.
Lots of people being cunts about anyone being on benefits.
iffyClyro@reddit
I was in group for people with log burners, to discuss wood burners.
Well, no it was a cesspit of political nutters akin to the gun-fetish people in the states.
Very bizarre.
phatboi23@reddit
Yup.
I've noticed that in a few groups.
Gone proper batshit political of late.
Reddit____user___@reddit
Sounds potentially stressful. 🤔

"A group where we all pretend to be Ants"
Reddit____user___@reddit
Is the bulk of the chat mainly marmalade focussed ?
Whocares1846@reddit
If I recall correctly it mostly considered of the word "DIG" being repeated ad-nauseum. Accompanied with a few "GROOM" "CLEAN" "FEED" etc

An XL bully one.
morebob12@reddit
People still use Facebook?
jesuseatsbees@reddit
Facebook is still pretty great for local groups. The rest of it is dead and awful but the groups are going strong.
Whocares1846@reddit
I get a lot of politics, money and current affairs analysis (e.g geopolitics, AI) as well but as you can't really trust everything you see online you have to take most of it wth large mountains of salt
Bastrato@reddit
I used to run a group dedicated to raising funds to get James Corden put in a rocket and fired at the sun. That was maybe 12-15 years ago.
Wonderful-Cow-9664@reddit
Probably something from 2008 when I first joined. I recall one being called something like “writing poo on banknotes” which frankly, I found hilarious. I was 25, don’t judge me
jesuseatsbees@reddit
Back in the early days of Facebook I joined a group called ‘not having a fried egg on my bum.’ The story was I was on a night out with my best friend and he told me some girl he just met was the ‘coolest girl ever’ because she had a tattoo of a fried egg on her bum. I was joke-mad about it and the next day joined that group so I could screenshot and send it to him. What’s weird is I did not create the group, it was just super specific and fitting.
Reddit____user___@reddit
Better “writing poo”, than “writing IN/WITH poo”.👍🏻
The whole premise seems suitably amusing and entertaining to me.🤔👍🏻
Reddit____user___@reddit
If the content in the Dull Men’s Club is riveting, then they’ve definitely meandered and lost their way along the path to dullness.
TheOwnerOfAnarres@reddit
I was in one where the admin posts the same picture of Jeff Goldblum every day. No discussion is allowed. Just Jeff Goldblum.
sihasihasi@reddit
One named after a mis-spelled banner. It's a really chilled group, where nobody is bitchy, and there's no drama.
I'm not bloody sharing the name because I want it to stay that way!
