My 18 month old likes to bite furniture (and walls, people, dogs, etc.) to get his sister's attention.
This definitely gets her attention but it's not the kind of attention he's looking for.
When he instead, walks over to her, gives her an epic 10 second squeezie hug complete with delicious baby noises, he also gets her attention.

How to Know When it's Time to Stop DIY-ing Your Website
Persuasive Web Design

We've all had one of those friends.
They'd meet a new guy, it was all rainbows, sunshine and lollipops, then next time you're out for coffee – it's over and only to begin again with someone new in a few weeks.
