When you update your status on Facebook there's always a little line below that says "via so-and-so-device". Usually, that's your computer, iPhone, Android or Blackberry. But there are secret codes to change that into almost anything, including:

Skynet
Telegram
Carrier Pigeon
Morse Code
Message in a Bottle
Commodore 64
Your moms computer
TRS-80
K.I.T.T.
Mind Computer Interface
eyePhone

microwave

Glade Air Freshner
Strawberry
The moon
Dr. Pepper
Nintendo wii
Alcohol
Cheese
iPod Nano

Microsoft Excel
iPhone 5G
Your Mums Bedroom
Lamp
Your moms anus
Refrigerator
A potato
Nasa Satellite
Vibrator

Pogo Stick
Banana Phone

TARDIS
Pip Boy
Mind Control
Jedi Mind Control
Telekinesis
Post-It Note
GLaDOS
Ansible
W.O.P.R
Airwolf

The codes are long number strings that can be used in the Facebook URL. Luckily someone has made this easy to use web Facebook status updater that allows you to use a pop-up menu to select any of those and more. You just have to be logged into Facebook to use it and make your friends believe that you are posting from an iPhone 5—so you can be smacked the next time they see you for being a clown.
