Whopper Sacrifice: ditch 10 Facebook friends, get a burger
Whopper Sacrifice is a new Facebook application from Burger King that promises to give you a free Whopper if you delete 10 friends from your Facebook profile. Simply install the application, click a friend to "sacrifice," click the little "x" by the friend's entry, and verify that you really want to remove the friend.If you decide to complete the decimation by removing nine more friends, you'll receive a coupon for a juicy Whopper (if you live in the US). You can add the app to your profile page so that your other friends can mock the people you deemed less valuable than a burger, or perhaps they will beg you to not give them a similar fate.
I'm going to justify my deletions by considering it a housecleaning of people I don't communicate with on Facebook anymore. That should help me sleep at night.

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

Of course I don't see what could stop you from adding those people back once you've got the coupon.

Of course I don't see why you would want to sacrifice a connection for a human being for a 300 calorie

Another one of their dumb ad campaigns. They just want to prove that their flavor injected, fatty, oily, unhealthy, and unreal hamburger is something people would want to get and sacrifice their friends for it. What a friend that person would be if they sacrifice 10 friends for food (if you want to call it food).

I'm guessing Burger King killed your parents, because that would be the only reasonable excuse to act in such a condescending manner.

If we are what we eat, then we're all worth a 37 cents bite of a burger!

Well, some folks aren't even worth that much, but I'll take what I can get for them.
