Attention-Seekers That Were Called Out on Social Media

Help! I’m being robbed! I can’t call the cops because I can’t get to a phone! It’s really scary here, guys, and I need to let you know on social media before I alert the cops. Oh, wait, I’m on my phone, updating my status on Facebook about this imaginary robbery.

Perhaps this person should be thankful that nobody else called the cops for them. That would have been a super-awkward conversation to have with the police. But then again, they could just lie and say that the robbers escaped and give a description of Groundskeeper Willie. That oughta keep the cops busy for a couple of minutes until they discover your Facebook status.
