Friendship Is Strong, But The Whopper Is Stronger!
Lolz! So I had seen this ad on facebook, which prompted me to delete every single friend I had. Sadly, I only had ten friends so I was only able to aquire one lonely whopper.
Soon after Facebook suspended the ad campaign. It turns out Burger King was actually sending notifications to the deleted friends (I had many angry e-mails) letting them know they had been dropped for a whopper, well a tenth of one that is. 234,000 friendships were severed resulting in 23,400 whoppers gained. So it just goes to show you how true your friends are or how hungry they really are!
Go to The New York Times for more of the story.
