An AI whose job is to show Facebook users when a post is false, and cite articles to prove it. Unfortunately, it has several major flaws that turn it into a laughing stock:
Problem 1: It is extremely left-wing biased to the point of censorship. You will NEVER see a liberal post getting fact-checked, but by golly, they will slap every conservative post with a "false/misleading info" tag if it paints President Biden in a bad light. (But then again, it's Mark Zuckerberg. What'd you expect?)
Problem 2: It is denser than a black hole. It cannot detect sarcasm in posts at all, and will fact-check the stupidest posts that are obviously jokes.
Problem 3: The sources it cites are often not credible; see Problem 1.
Problem 4: Sometimes, the sources used actually prove that the post is indeed true, which is exactly the opposite of what it's supposed to do.

Get the Facebook Fact-Checkermug. When you're up late at night and you posts on Facebook instantly when they're posted. Essentially it's where the later you stay up, the less people post. Anything after Midnight tends to be Pages posting stupid stuff, but none of your friends actually post interesting content. So when something comes along that's actually cool, or in rare instances like when your friends actually tag you in a post or comment on your status, you get really excited and respond fast. It's a bit like a bell curve, during the day when you get a lot of notifications you're kinda like eh, whatever, and you're barely excited, but the later it gets the more exciting it gets....
It was around 4am when the Facebook Insomniac Effect happened: I was tagged in a video and I found myself bursting into flames, flames of excitement.

Get the Facebook Insomniac Effectmug. The influence facebook's categorising of the world has. Only that which follows facebook criteria is acknowledged and allowed. Giving facebook the power to influence our world through mass conformity to its imposed framework.
Is this about me
I can only be what facebook allows
If you put face and book together does it make facebook
The spell check has a little red line under facebook
If I press add to dictionary the line goes away
This is about me
I wonder why that is

Get the Facebook says somug. A vow taken in order to pledge to refrain from constantly messaging, liking and/or commenting on statuses of your crush.

This vow prevents the insomnia and/or obsession caused by non-stop Facebook checks in order to see if the said crush has replied or paid any attention to the crush-ee.
