A post
intended for a large audience yet posted on a single person's wall to appear more genuine. Since proxy wallposts are visible through homepage feeds, one can
advertise a trait of oneself that would be
construed as bragging if in the form of a status.
Suppose you want to advertise to your friends that you are caring and social. This is
impossible to brag about, so instead just find your friend who shares the most
mutual friends and write this gem of a proxy wallpost:
"We had such a great time last week! I miss you so much <3"
Soon, everyone you know will see it in their feed. And, unlike a status, no one will call you on it for fear of you playing the
None Of Your Business card.
