#im sad facebook

You can always count on Facebook to bring out new trends on the internet, and one of the most recent ones is the "sad ako" or "I'm sad" posts. People would use their Facebook accounts then send direct messages or post comments to Facebook pages of preferred brands and businesses with "sad ako" with the hope of getting freebies. Those fortunate enough would screenshot the chat conversation and post it on their Facebook accounts, making it a trend. The concept is not new, though, as Facebook users have already done something similar in the past. In "sad ako" posts, it's mostly asking for items we can consider as 'luxury' like gadgets. Lucky Facebook users were able to win free food and services. People would post on their accounts that it worked, which makes the practice trend more on Facebook. I have read multiple "sad ako" messages here at YugaTech asking for gadgets, and for valid reasons like online schooling needs.
