As some of you may know there is this social networking device on the interwebs called facebook. Now the Internet is known for its anonymity as well as animosity. But facebook cuts down on that because at least there is some accountability. You at least "know" the people you are "friends" with. So I have taken it upon myself to do a little experiment, because lets be honest some of the people you are "friends" with aren't really true friends. There people you know from work, or through someone else, or people you had a class with. So what would happen if I left a jokingly offensive response on every status update I saw for an entire day? Well I am going to find out.
Today is a warning, starting tomorrow morning I am going check facebook once every hour and leave a comment on every status update I see. They will be jokingly insulting but if I comment on somebody's status who I don't know that well I am hoping they won't know its a joke. Will I be unfriended, digitally scolded, or simply ignored? I don't know but I can't wait to find out.
The experiment starts tomorrow and I will write it up the following day. This is going to be fun.

Good luck on this one.
