viral facebook statuses.

Remember the days of annoying chain emails?

If you've forgotten (lucky you) you can check some of them out here, on the hoax-slayer.com website.

I don't get too many of these forwarded to me anymore (thank goodness), probably because the majority of people I know now use other means on the internet to disrupt each other's days, such as Facebook.

Now, don't get me wrong. I'm not completely shallow and superficial, but when someone posted a status saying that they'd answer all these questions about me, if I 'liked' it, then I simply couldn't resist. The only condition was that I had to put the same list of questions, and invitation for others to 'like' it, as my status.

How hard could it be?

Well, turns out it could be VERY hard. For simply getting two people to answer the questions, I ended up having over 30 people like my status. (Pretty sure all of THEM didn't post the same status, though. Rude.)



Now, I do have other things to do (such as various essays, that I already obtained extensions for due to being sick) so I didn't really have time (or the energy) to reply to each of these status-likers one by one. I decided then, that the easiest option (besides giving up) would be to post videos where I verbally answered all the questions. This ended up being harder in terms of upload times, but at least people aren't as annoyed about how 'late' the responses are - they seem to be quite amused...

Anyway, here are the first three parts of the video. I had recorded it as one video, but Youtube wouldn't let me upload it as it was too large, so I cut it into three parts. I did quite a slack job with the editing, because I DO have other things to do, but I think I may spend a little bit more effort on the next batch. (Or not, as the case may be.)
