"You look way prettier in person than through your webcam": #NSAPickupLines

In this week's #IMWeekly news roundup, we reported that at least ten NSA officers have used the agency's surveillance power to spy on their romantic partners over the past decade—a practice deemed "LOVEINT" by the Wall Street Journal, which broke the story.

Yesterday, NPR reported that Twitter users have taken the story and run with it, posting satirical pick-up lines and love poems under the hashtags #NSAPickupLines and #NSALovePoems.

Some of the most amusing tweets we've seen so far:
