The days of the material world are over. We have moved into the digital realm. We talk to each other lyk dis and everything is very cncs (concise). We have no time 4 vowels or long wrds. We’ve got tngs 2 do n c, and don’t have time for sincere human interaction. Within time we’ll all exist strictly on the internet, in digital form. It sounds horrible, but we’ll save a ton of money on food.
For those of you behind the times, here is some social media behavior which will be commonplace in our future world.
8. Most Notes on a Tumblr Post
This Tumblr note currently has over 2,800,000 notes, which means it’s been “liked” or re-blogged that many times. We’re hoping that all 2+ million of those notes are “likes,” as opposed to re-blogs. Otherwise, we’ve got some wizards on our hands. Or liars… which are even worse.
7. Most Positive Messages Tweeted to Someone Fighting Cancer in 24 Hours
This record would not have been possible without social media. The only alternative would have been to organize a stampede of well-wishers at Bena Roberts’ door and that would have been chaos. But the important aspect of this record attempt is its good-naturedness. They say that mental health can actually improve physical health.* So, by my calculations, Twitter cures cancer. Thanks for wasting everyone’s time and money, doctors.

6. Most Twitter Followers Gained in the Name of a Tattoo
Whenever Ryan Goff looks at his Fail Whale tattoo and is struck with low esteem, all he has to do is remember what got him that Fail Whale: about 1,500 brand new friends… who wanted him to get an irremovable depiction of failure drawn on his body. Whatever works!
5. Largest Farmville Gnome Collection
Forty gnomes on a farm. The internet is truly magical.
4. Highest Single Move “Words With Friends” Score
This is one of the more controversial records on RecordSetter. Did James Whiteside set up the board with a friend? Was it a genuine attempt? Does it matter? No. Because Whiteside deserves credit for finding a word that my computer dictionary does not recognize.
3. Longest Comment Thread on a Facebook Wall Post
Congratulations to Zac Massey and friends for having all the time in the world.
2. Most Facebook “Pokes”
Lindsay’s mother would be horrified if she knew… HORRIFIED!
1. Longest Time Using Only Social Media to Communicate
Do people still communicate verbally? Is that still “in”? I don’t know, maybe I’m out of touch.
