These days almost everyone has some sort of social networking site to their name, and this addiction goes even farther with these Social Network Minions -- a mixed demographic of followers that you can actually see.
It's a great (gag) present for the social media addict, because they can physically see how many followers (or in this case, minions) they have. Each package contains 25 unique followers, which for the social media savvy seems like a small amount. Fret not, because you can always buy more followers to track your traffic, tweets, posts or pins.
This hilarious take on followers (which is only appreciated online and not in real life) shows the truth about what followers really are: a group of random people who enjoy what you have to say.
