Title: Women's Day
Post by: Fluffkomix on April 15, 2010 05:12 AM
So here's the story.

Once upon a time in the mystical land of the internet, there was a large province called Facebook. This facebook was a tolerant society. it admitted anyone who wanted to join, and let them speak freely of what they wanted.

Unfortunately, with great responsibility, comes great abuse.

There was once a self-hating emo kid with the name of Ethan Bones Richard Doucette. This kid wished to reach the fame of people like St Valentine, or Jesus. The people who started major holidays, even if they didn't exist (jesus). This person, appalled by all the hate, sexism, and discrimination that women go through daily, decided to create a holiday in the vast nation of Facebook called Women's day. the day where women get the respect they seemingly deserve. He decided the best way to do this was to post the event on a public forum, where he could show it to his friends, and tell them to tell their friends, hoping it would spread virally.

This is where the trouble starts.

You see, the only way something can spread virally is if many people are able to view it or participate in it. The mistake this kid made was what killed it in the first place. Through a varied list of rules and guidelines he had to wade through that the nation had set up, he accidentally set up his event as a closed event, meaning you could only join if you were invited, and you could only invite people if you were an admin. The obvious fix, apparently, was NOT to re-register the event with Facebook.

Instead, everyone who joined the event became an admin.

I joined the event initially to write on the wall a comment containing the subject of sandwiches.

7 hours later, at the time of 5:05 pm, i was an admin.

an hour later it was too late, i had already come home.

and then this sorta happened all by itself.

After that, i proceeded to send a message to everyone who wrote on the wall of the event concerning the exact contents of the comment they wrote on the wall.

Then i sent a message to the man who created the event, Mr. Douchette himself

Then, for a final blow to add to his pride related injury, i created an event called Men's Day.

And i sent him a message containing a link, and he made a major typo.
