parallel liking

On Facebook, when one person's comment is liked by another person, whose responding comment is then liked by the original commenter.

Can be used for many reasons, the most common being:
1. Self-absorption
2. Eagerness to appear as though one has a private joke with someone else
3. Desire to publicly proclaim the good standing of a relationship to the world (whether true or false).

Vanessa: Wow, I can't believe Brit-brit and Jen-jen are so self-absorbed that they keep parallel liking everything!

Angie: Yeah, especially since they had that big fight yesterday...everyone knows they don't really get along anymore.
