Melanie’s phone goes off indicating a message.
“Hey it’s Evan; he wants to know if I’m on facebook.”
And she picks up phone to respond.
“STOP!!! What are you doing?” freaks out Tracey
“I was just going to respond with a simple yes.”
Tracey grabs phone off Melanie, they do this a lot.
“Have you facebooked yourself lately?”
“Well no, but…”
“Exactly, let’s just have a look.”
And she facebooks Melanie.
Melanie’s profile is very bland no picture no…. no….not much at all
“Just how exciting do you look? ….. And how many friends do you have?”
“Look, I have three; you, Wesley and my cousin Lucy, but no one can tell that Lucy is actually related and not just a friend.”
Tracey then facebooks Evan whose profile is amazing, very suave photo and
about seven thousand six hundred and ninety three friends. (Is this a reasonable
figure Michael?? We want it to still be realistic.)
“Oh I see, well how can I get some more friends super quickly.”
“Okay, this calls for drastic measures, a seductive photo for a start.”
“I don’t think so… and I couldn’t look seductive if I tried.”
“I know that… not a photo of you silly, let’s find someone that looks really really sexy; blonde, great legs, huge boobs.”
“Um Tracey, that’s like all the things that I’m not, I can’t use a photo like that, it won’t be me.”
“Yeah but we want all these guys to become friends, so then you’ll look like incredibly popular. And then we click on as many guys as we can and some girls too and ask them to be friends and most people will just automatically say yes, coz everyone wants lots of friends…..”
“But Tracey….”
“Trust me Mel, this is for your own good, and then when we get enough friends we can go back to your non photo if you really want to.”
And she starts frantically clicking away at the computer.
“No Tracey!!” And they start fighting over the keyboard.
Melanie’s phone goes off with another message. She grabs it.
“It’s Evan again.”
“OMG!!!” and Melanie freezes. “What could he possibly be talking about?”
Tracey snatches it and starts reading.
“Hey Mel, cute photo…. But Mel I haven’t even found that photo yet…I swear….”
And then she scrolls down.
“Oh!…” I love that wonder woman outfit.””
“Tracey….how could he know that I have a wonder woman outfit?”
“Oh that, no idea.” And she looks away and extremely guilty.
“Mmm Tracey…… I’m waiting…..”
“Well, he must have looked at your friends and then gone into my profile.”
“Your profile?? And …..”
“Well you remember my nieces’s birthday party and how you dressed up as a super hero and we had that great photo taken together.”
“Mmm, the one that you promised to destroy because I said that I would only do it if no one over eight was ever going to see me in that ridiculous outfit.”
“Well I did destroy the photo afterwards, but I look really good in that photo and you know that I don’t actually have many really good photos so I thought it would be a good one to use on my profile and hardly anyone would really notice it.”
“I am so going to kill you!!”
“But hey, he liked it, he thought you looked cute and what a distraction that would have been from the fact that you only had three friends, you should actually be thanking me.”
“Yeah right a million thanks, oh best friend of mine!”
