So yesterday was Quit Facebook Day, and it was, apparently, a big fat bust — 34,000 people hit the proverbial road. And, according to our own survey, only 2,645 readers packed up their profile pics and galloped off into the digital sunset — including parody rapper SeanieMic.

This little vid about kicking Facebook to the curb is actually pretty entertaining — the fake status updates, ads and other FB ephemera really amp up the entertainment factor (not to mention the Mashable shoutout).

So whether you nixed the newsfeed or still persist in cherishing your shareable shackles, take a moment to laugh at the uproar. Oh, and Seanie actually has a totally legit point: Duckface is never OK.

Sketch troupe Derrick Comedy has tackled social networking as the topic of their latest video by creating the next next-generation social network: Gink. What is Gink? Well, it’s simple, really: “Gink is a fun made-up word, combining the words gibble and spink, both of which are also made up.”

Simultaneously parodying the proliferation of social networks and the dizzying array of specialized terminology that often comes with them, Gink goes off the deep end with an assortment of seriously delivered gibberish that would make Dr. Seuss proud.

Check out the video below — warning: some NSFW language included — and let us know what you think. Is Gink the next big thing?

The Internet loves a good trickster (remember the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air rap dude?), so it’s no surprise that vids of “K-Strass,” a purported yo-yo champ, duping local news hosts have rapidly gone viral.

In these videos, K-Strass visits local news stations in order to bust out his skills and shill for ZimZam Yo-Yos, “a non-profit toy making organization dedicated to educating children about the environment,” according to the Facebook page.

Then, horror of horrors, the hapless local host discovers that homeboy cannot, in fact, yo-yo. Like, at all.

This mysterious character has quickly been dubbed a yo-yoing Andy Kaufman, which may explain his most recent tweet (that’s right he has a Twitter — dude is going all out with this joke).

Here’s hoping it’s not just some huge, obnoxious marketing scheme. While you’re biting your fingers in anticipation, check out his most famous performance below.
