Eh?

Are you still at school?

Is this the new test for MI6? If I crack it do I become James Bond?

You are not BU. It is sick making.

OP it might have been really helpful if you wrote where you had seen this, I know youre talking about Facebook but others wont. Hmm

JeNeSuisPasVotreMiel · 08/02/2017 15:02

Huh?

SalemSaberhagen · 08/02/2017 15:03

It's a thing on a lot of Facebook groups. Women asking other women to write a note saying '[woman's name] loves [man's name] so much it has reached all the way to [location]' and then taking a photo and sending it to the OP so they can collate them all, and presumably gift them to their spouse.

It's really cringey. I know if i did it for DP he would just be like 'okaaay' Hmm

Celaena · 08/02/2017 15:05

sorry - sometimes i think that everyone knows whats going on in my head!!

yes, they're on facebook, on some of the groups i am in - thanks @SalemSaberhagen (nice Sabrina ref) for your explanation

Totally infuriating. Along with teachers trying to prove how far things reach on the internet. YADNBU.

SalemSaberhagen · 08/02/2017 15:07

It looks like we are on the same groups calaena

Llanali · 08/02/2017 15:07

Oh and the type amen on this picture type thing. Please just fucking well stop.

NoncommittalToSparkleMotion · 08/02/2017 15:09

OMG. That's so cringey.

Never seen it, but now will probably see it everywhere.

There was someone on here asking for international volunteers for this the other week.

I find it rather sweet (but I'm not on FB being inundated). For those who don't know what this is about, www.facebook.com/LoveNotesFromEveryone/photos/a.247876195624135.1073741828.247873835624371/247876175624137/?type=3&theater

Llan I dont see why the teachers trying to prove a point is a bad thing. Kids just dont get the risks they are taking sometimes, and the picture of the bag of apples is a good way to teach that. DD is 12 and she was gobsmacked how so many people would see and share the picture.

amusedbush · 08/02/2017 15:26

Several of my friends are "collecting" them and I can't get too worked up about it.

Llanali · 08/02/2017 15:45

Pyongyang - I guess the first few times I could understand the purpose. I think it's just so old and overdone now that it irritates me.
