Title: “Family Feud: Social Media Edition”
Scene 1: The Gathering
[Facebook, Ancestry.com, and 23andMe as personified characters are sitting at a table, ready for an intervention.]
Facebook (loud and confident): “Alright, everyone! I’ve gathered us here today because I’m THE expert at connecting people. I mean, I’ve reunited high school sweethearts, long-lost friends, and… oh, let’s not forget Aunt Karen who never misses a comment section!”
Ancestry.com (prim, proper, sipping tea): “Please, Facebook. I’ve been connecting people long before you were even…well, coded. I dig up records, uncover family trees—you know, actual connections, not just ‘like’ buttons.”
23andMe (quirky and science-y): “Hey, hey! Let’s not forget who’s literally connecting people down to their DNA. I’m over here discovering secret siblings, surprise cousins…and that awkward moment when your neighbor ends up being your third cousin twice removed. Boom!”
Scene 2: The Argument
[They start bickering over who’s the best at connecting people.]
Facebook: “I connect you with old college roommates AND people you met once at that party in 2007. Beat that!”
Ancestry.com: “Please, darling, I can trace your lineage back to the Viking era. You’re welcome.”
23andMe: “Okay, okay, but have either of you ever solved a paternity mystery and given someone a health risk report in one email? Didn’t think so.”
Scene 3: The Unexpected Twist
[A Wi-Fi interruption happens. Chaos ensues.]
Facebook (panicking): “No Wi-Fi?! My notifications! How will people know it’s Brad’s birthday?!”
Ancestry.com (dramatic): “My archives… centuries of family history, lost to the void of the offline!”
23andMe (shouting): “Someone hand me a beaker, I’ll find a solution with science!”
Scene 4: The Reconnection
[Cut to a tech-savvy Gen Z kid calmly restarting the router.]
Gen Z Kid: “Y’all need to chill. Wi-Fi’s back.”
[They go back online, each looking embarrassed.]
Scene 5: The Resolution
[They come together in harmony, realizing they each play a role in connecting people.]
Facebook (reluctantly): “Fine, Ancestry. I guess your family trees are kinda cool.”
Ancestry.com: “And I suppose your ‘tagging’ feature does…serve a purpose.”
23andMe: “Group hug? But I want DNA swabs after this!”
Voiceover to wrap up: “Whether it’s Facebook, Ancestry, or 23andMe—one way or another, you’re connected. Like it or not!”
