Oh snaps.

Welcome to the internets. Where most of you spend countless hours during the week. We get paid to sit in front of the computer and pretend to do work, but really, we're finding out what Lindsay Lohan had for breakfast and googling awkward pictures of cats. Here's a toast (a blog toast because drinking is NOT allowed during work...) to all of you 40 hours a week craftsmen. Because let's be honest, we are all craftsmen. Do you know how hard it is to quickly exit a facebook browser?

Facebook Party for All!

What happens when you create a 16th birthday party invite on Facebook and forget to make it private and accidentally publish it so everyone on the site can see it? Well, 15,000 respond to the invite and 1,500 people actually SHOW UP.

Yes, some girl named Thessa from Hamburg, Germany, did just that. They ended up cancelling the party after all the response, but that didn't stop people from showing up. Turns out, the celebration went off and people were partying, sans Thessa. 100 police officers were called in, 11 arrests were made and two fires had to be put out.

Sounds like a damn good party to me! I wonder why Thessa didn't want to show up? And who knew you could create an event and invite everyone on Facebook? I must look into this for my next event.
