Wondering what's up with all the numbers on Facebook?

 Recently everyone seems to be Bored on FACEBOOK (well that’s the legendary excuse)  ANYWAYS basically everyone including myself has been getting very interactive with this 'number game' I HATED it at first with so many constant updates on my NEWS FEED by a same person, urrrrgggghhh ANOYINGGGG …..But as I joined in I realised what the big fuss was about.




 Well this is how it works the game is simple: you just announce on your wall that you're playing the game, and anyone else who is interested sends you a message with a random number of their choosing. Then you take that number and post it in you status update followed by a compliment WELL NOT ALWAYS or something nice about the person that sent you the number or just some thoughts and views of the person.

It’s a good method of being nice to people or just simply sharing your opinions or just away of reconnecting with some old friends.

For the most part it looks like people are being kind to each other -- lots of "LOL GUD TYMES" and "we haven't talked in forever, “ BLA BLA BLA but even if you end up with a negative peer review, you're anonymous, so there's practically no risk of public humiliation …Unless you’re dumb enough to like or comment on the post.

The fun part is that who you are is anonymous. Let’s be honest everyone Loves hearing about themselves and that is exactly why people are playing this time consuming game but let’s short-live it as its quite annoying when you’re bombarded with numbers on your mail box even from some one who barely talk to or know just because they want to hear about themselves but I’m guilty of that too so you’re not alone on that.
