Earlier in the week we told you all about the two little girls who struck up a deal with their dad. Basically their dad promised them that they could get a puppy if they managed to get one million people to like their cause via Facebook.
This is the picture that the little girls made in order to plead for likes on the social networking website:

Needless to say, their campaign worked and their dad was forced to get them the puppy that they so badly wanted.
Seeing the success that the two little girls had with regards to the power of social media, one determined man from Norway has now followed in their footsteps.
Petter Kverneng struck up a deal with his friend Cathrine after he came across the girls’ puppy campaign. Basically, he asked her if she’d sleep with him if he managed to get one million likes on Facebook. And of course, Catherine didn’t think that it would ever happen, so she agreed as a joke. Here is the sign that Petter made for his cause:

We imagine that Catherine is seriously kicking herself now, because the picture (which was originally posted on Facebook) went viral almost immediately and within 24 hours, Petter had reached his target.
Speaking to local media, Petter said that he wasn’t worried about whether or not Catherine would keep up her end of the bargain but he was worried about her dad.
So what have we learned from all this? If you want a puppy it’s a good idea to take your case to Facebook. If one of your male friends is trying to sleep with you, it’s probably a good idea not to make any Facebook-related bets. Judging from this story, chances are you’ll definitely lose.
