digital boyfriend.


i just want to give props to our dear friend and I'll Cut You reader, Skizz.

she went one step farther than pretending she has a fake boyfriend. she went two steps farther than sending herself flowers with a note from an admirer. she even went a little farther than having a fake boyfriend's picture in a frame.

she invented a fake boyfriend on Facebook. complete with pictures, a profile, and....wait for it....a best friend.

because she controls his profile, he can comment on her posts and even drop a suggestive, mysterious post on her wall — at exactly the right time. say, when someone isn't giving her as much attention as she needs.

pretty genius. but mostly hilarous.

Skizz, my hat's off to you.

p.s. i intentionally chose a stock shot. it seemed fitting.

This is at least a dozen different kinds of genius.

A baker's dozen. Plus a cupcake and a hamentashen from the bakery. Wow.

Not to brag, but I was ahead of my time. We didn't even have My Space when Bobby was invented. http://illcutyou.blogspot.com/2006/02/why-dont-youinvent-fake-boyfriend.html
