Flakebook
Pun on facebook. Another place where flakes can easily make passing commitments like the failed attempt to gather the world's biggest water fight. Most who signed up flaked on it. Also a place for fakes to claim strangers as friends.
Carbon Credits
A SCHEME and a SCAM.
A SCHEME by the rich to continue their polluting guilt free, while the poor will have to make sacrifices for the environment so the rich can continue to pollute.
A SCAM because there is no independent auditing/verification the scheme is helping the environment.

Anyone can sell carbon credits, but how can it be verified they performed the promised tasks? How much was actually spent on reducing carbon emmisions?
Screw the environment, I'm gonna carbon credit my way to becoming a billionaire!

Toilet Paper Diploma
A diploma worthy only to use as toilet paper. A meaningless diploma. A diploma that is not recognized in any meaningful way.
Yay I got my toilet paper diploma in fine arts!
I didn't even have to take a test to receive that toilet paper diploma.
I don't know why Mike hangs that toilet paper diploma in his office. It's not recognized by anyone outside this office, and by almost noone inside this office.

Gun-free Zone
Another ill-conceived idiotic idea by hoplophobes trying to force their extreme views upon everyone. The premise of this ideologue is criminals, who by definition regularly break the law, will suddenly obey the law because a new one was just created.
Virginia Tech implemented a gun-free zone on their grounds after a 2005 gun incident. In this incident, a student who was legally carrying a pistol stopped an armed assailant by confronting him. It is a tragic irony that the "leaders" of that college then took away the one thing that could of prevented the 2007 tragedy.
