People who follow others awfully amused by National Stalking Awareness Day

Today is National Stalking Awareness Day in the United Kingdom. It’s also a trending topic on Twitter this morning where, of course, following is expected and being unfollowed is an unbearable blow to one’s ego.

Here are some of the National Stalking Awareness Day tweets from people who obsess over “follower” and “following” counts.

We imagine there were some tweets taking National Stalking Awareness Day seriously, but sifting through the haystack for that needle might just be above our pay grade.
