Finally, an app to keep friends from wanting to hang out with you
Do you have too many friends? Do you absolutely hate when someone wants to hang out with you? Are you the kind of person who is far too important to field a text from each individual friend and would simply like to put a big "Do Not Disturb" sign on your life? Well get excited, because your new favorite app just hit the iPhone and it's ready to tell all your annoying acquaintances to bark up someone else's social tree. It's called Red/Green, and it's the quickest way to feel super important. The idea here is that you'll adopt a very binary way of approaching your social availability. No more "Anyone want to hang out later?" or "Let's go to the movies tomorrow" for you. It's all about the here and now. When you're busy -- which is all the time because you're awesome and super important -- you switch your status to red, which means "Go away I'm too busy for your weird friendship stuff." However, on the off chance that you're not jet-setting or taking your significant other (who is a model and also a movie star) out for dinner, you can set your status to green, to signal all your inadequate friends to come running like sheep to slaughter. Oh, you're on the outs with certain people in your social circle? No worries, because Red/Green lets you keep those grudges going by allowing only certain people to see that you're available for friendly interactions, while the rest of the plebeians will be given a big middle finger. Isn't the future wonderful? [Photo via greggoconnell]
