Time to meet your new bestie!
There's a new social experiment upon us everyone and it's a gooden. People are texting their 'Text Door Neighbour' to see if they can make a new friend.
Basically, you text an introductory message to the number one up or one down from you and hope for the best. Let's just say... it's going really well for some people, and going horribly horribly wrong for others.
This guy just wanted to make a friend...
So I tried the text door neighbor thing. Apparently the person wasn't too friendly pic.twitter.com/rxPLMwIsoY

This guy's left side neighbour didn't want to chat so he went to the right side...
I got a reply from my #textdoorneighbour but they didn't really want to chat so I'll try the other side pic.twitter.com/rlLBoMnAbW

We at PopBuzz are always ready to jump on the band wagon of any and all social experiments so we texted our Text Door Neighbour...
... in the hopes of sharing cute pictures of BB-8 and forming a lasting friendship. But we're sorry to say, within a mere 3 MINUTES, that it did not turn out the way we hoped.
At least we didn't waste one of our free texts on that hater...
