I thought these Facebook-inspired Like/Dislike stamps were amusing, but figured "What's the actual application?" Are you meant to stamp your friend's forehead to rate the intelligence or inanity of what they just said?
Apparently I'm alone in my doubts: The $12.99 sets are currently sold out.
Wait a sec, I just realized there is no "Dislike" on Facebook. These stamps are ironic and subversive!
Other virtual experiences I'd like to see make the IRL transition:
- When UPS guy shows up, pre-recorded voice box of AOL guy announces "You've got mail"
- Say something stupid on a first date, stick hand in right pocket ("Command"), other hand in left pocket ("Z") and it gets unsaid
- When eating a meal you don't care for, press an X at the top of the dish and it disappears
Any ideas for more?

Please remember to restore :o)
The world of the net is divided between the immense possibilities of like and the other immense possibilities of dislike. Cool.
That's definitely a neat little novelty gift, especially for a teacher that is trying to connect with a younger generation that thinks in terms of Facebook. I think that Facebook Likes are a little overemphasized what with so many companies offering Facebook likes for sale at http://www.buyfacebookfansreviews.com and other sites. But still, this is a cute little gift. Once Google +1's become more widely known, I'm sure that they'll make stamping sets for that stuff too, heh.
