Instead of going though the enormous hassle of creating a bunch of fake friends on Facebook (and consequently several email accounts, etc.) then unfriending them for a free burger, I think I'd rather just work 10 minutes overtime at my job, then buy all those burgers. I'm already here anyways. I just eaned a coulpe while typing this.

Actually I expected folks to recruit fake freinds so they could earn a Whopper. All you need to do is get a bunch of your friends to create new FB profiles link to all the real FB profiles of everyone they know. When that is done they immediately dis all these "new" friends .. voila instant Burger party :P

A few days ago I was predicting this would fail, at least with women. I couldn't imagine how they could publicly broadcast that you were getting dumped as a friend for a tenth of a whopper. Talk about getting dissed. I think the privacy issue was dismissed by BK, Facebook and Crispin, all ignorant of the likely response by the people who were getting publicly put down. They slapped a happy face on their solution so they wouldn't look like idiots who once again don't understand the social aspect of social networking.

"Hmmm people will gladly shit-can alleged friends to get some artery hardening action. Oh no! Our stupid investors might figure out this capital-eating, self-indulgent, narcissistic, vacuous popularity contest is a waste of time, effort, cash! Quick! Pull the plug!"

Pathetic!
