Title (Dublin Core)

An [Facebook] event can RSVP 'Interested' to, and then not show up"

Description (Dublin Core)

This post follows the format of joke Facebook events not intended to actually occur and referencing the tendency of people to RSVP to legitimate Facebook events and then decide not to attend before the pandemic. It was created in response to the tweet which features as the background image for the event page. At the time this was shared with the archive, just under 160 thousand people from around the world had responded they were "interested" in this "event."
