Woman in custody after boy reported missing on Friday and parents turn out to be a construct of false Facebook accounts

The worlds gone flipping mad, if you want my opinion.

How do we know you are real? You might only exist on WrongPlanet and all your posts are being made by a spotty teenager in his parent's basement. :P

There are many of me and we all exist on varying social media sites. I don't know that anyone from social media has ever seen me either.

OMG! like I don't have enough on my plate [just like everyone else here] now, I might be a figment of someones' imagination! Baby bird,you are such a sweet woman. If I am a figment of your imagination, can you do a favor for me and reconstruct me with a leaner, healthier, younger body? And the wrinkles and sagging.If you would erase them while you pump up my bank account [oops,, better imagine me one first] I would appreciate it. Actually... I have a list.

oh, and if I appear to be missing, I'm probably staring off into space while rocking to the tune of 'Unchained Melody," [aren't you a little too young to be imagining that song?] If someone OTHER than Babybird imagined me, please honor the above requests.

Considering the pain that thousands of people go through each day, who have a loved one who is missing, I cannot wish anything but misery on these people.

I doubt any of you here have, but if you have played Fallout New Vegas, then I'm like Mr. House. I am hundreds of years old, I live in a tiny life support pod, talk through computer monitors, control a robot army, and go on here. But that's pretty much all I do.
