There are some negative. Suppose you don't want to share a particular post with a friend in your circle or friends list, then what to do. The same with photos. If a particular photo need to be hidden from a particular friend then what to do.

having not good privacy settings

Everyone knows your business and people share your business that you didn't permit.

It is very easy to see what others post on your sidebar. You can see which of your friends commented on their status that way.

That is the news feed you are talking about. It is same as wall post but in the form of feed in a fixed window.

The worst thing for me is the post that they say “if you don’t shear this post to 10friends then you will have bad luck” and other post like “a 10 years old boy is very sick and might die shear this to your friends” why would I do that? will Facebook magically heal them? these are the most annoying things for me.

You have to stay at arm's distance while on social networking site and not reveal too many personal details or you come across as unprofessional. That can be a negative if you prefer to be more social. Though you should keep them separate.
