Lamebook
Much is made of the fear that e-pirates can steal your
identity, but what if they didn't steal it, and instead just
laughed at it? Because it was so stupid? Turning social
networking into a hilarious nightmare, Lamebook.
Unleashed by two Austin graphic designers, Lame's a
regularly updated aggregation of tragic Facebook content --
status updates, pics, fan pages, profiles, etc -- presented
in the same style as its source, all made possible by the
fact that privacy protections are really, really confusing.
Posts are tagged by gaff: "Lamester Awards" are handed to
such winners as Valerie, for posting a pic of her leg
mangling her boyfriend's neck because another girl bought
him a...necklace; "WTFights" include the epic battle between
Jennifer (who "wants to learn to play the trumpet!") and
ex-bf Pascal ("if your **** sucking skills are anything to
go by, save your time"); "TypeOHs" streive to be as awesome
as "I streive to be successful"; and the reigning TMI champ
has to be Elizabeth, who hopes her tike, Jackson, "doesn't
get the toots during the sermon" (Mass gas!). Other
categories include Religious ("I crank that Soulja Boy for
Christ"), "Personal Problems" (Shelly wants you to buy her
house despite a pickup truck sticking out of a wall -- "a
bit of a fixer-upper, but it's got great bones"), and
"Uncategorized", e.g., Drew's June 26 update: "RIP Michael
Jordan" (and to think, his air hadn't even gone gray).
Should your pics or missives wind up on Lame, just ask
Lame's net buccaneers to delete, and they say they'll do it
no questions asked, but if you're wondering if they're still
laughing, they arrrrhhh.
Contests & merch are coming. Spy on the sorry at:
