Here's an app for anyone who's daydreamed about mowing down annoying Facebook friends with large, fast-moving vehicles. "Mitsubishi Unpretentious" analyzes content from your friends' Facebook pages to determine your most pretentious friend—and then runs him or her over with a speeding 2013 Outlander Sport. Even though it was just his photo, it was shocking to see a vaguely remembered high-school friend get blown to smithereens in the middle of a desert. (It was also weird that the app thought a note about his daughter's water-polo game was pretentious, when it was actually sort of sweet.)
