SDS Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 http://news.cnet.com/8301-13577_3-10136679...torsPicksArea.0 Fast-food chain Burger King has created "Whopper Sacrifice," a Facebook app that will give you a coupon for a free hamburger if you delete 10 people from your friends list. The funniest part: The "sacrifices" show up in your activity feed. So it'll say, for example, "Caroline sacrificed Josh Lowensohn for a free Whopper." Unfortunately, you can't delete your whole friends list and eat free (however unhealthily) for a week. The promotion is limited to one coupon per Facebook account.

Cugalabanza Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I don't know what to say except that that is just plain sick and weird. If I had a soul left, I might be prompted to react to this sort of thing in some way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
