Facebook Is Like Bananas and Boxes, Says the Internet

Facebook boasts its similarities to chairs and other inanimate objects -- doorbells, airplanes, bridges, dance floors, basketball -- in their new ad campaign.

The social network's first commercial has inspired a new Tumblr, Are Like Facebook, that highlights the other random things Facebook is like. Flip through the gallery above for some of our favorites.

The Tumblr, however, isn't the only thing poking fun at the ad.

A new website, AreChairsLikeFacebook.com, asks if chairs are indeed like Facebook. The never-changing answer is simply a large "NO" on a white background.

The Twitter parody account @InvisibleObama has also chimed in with its thoughts.

That account wasn't the only person that made the connection between the two viral moments. Mgarciaad, a member of the Mashable community, sent us the meme mashup below.
