I'm sure you've heard the Facebook joke, guy decides to try living his life out as one posts on Facebook, he showed people on his walk to work photos of his dog and his breakfast, he poked a few people, he made sure to tell lots of people he liked what they were saying, then he yelled at a few people who were talking politics and he asked a half dozen people if he could share some of there stuff. It really paid off as he now has 3 new friends following him, two police detectives and a psychiatrist.
Edit: I'm going on a couple hours of sleep, maybe somebody already shared this, its from some comedian I think.
