My brother entered a false day intentionally thinking that it would be it would be a good way to filter genuine from empty happy birthday wishes.

My brother updated his birthday to the 9th of the current month for 8-9 months straight and got birthday wishes every month. He carefully monitored for and deleted people giving it away on his wall, and reading the posts (often the same people for several months) was hilarious. 'hey man, I totally thought your birthday was in May? oh well, happy birthday!'

I deleted facebook 3 years ago, so I actually get real live phone calls from people who actually know. =pp
