Screw x, I literally don't care what happens to it at this point. At one point in time "twitter" was actually half decent, then it just went to shit....

Twitter was decent in like 2008 before boomers were on it. By 2012 it had become the information warfare platform we all know and hate.

Can agree with this....

Hate to jump on the Boomer hate train, but I get it. Was loving Facebook for a minute, until some of my GenX acquaintances got on there with their virulent shit.

"WTF Tab?! You were basically Joan Jett in the day! Whipped my ass in my first bike race when we were 5."

"And Lurch, fuck you man. You were the gigantic, weird kid that joined us in 6th grade. We took you in and made friends. We were punkers, and now you're all establishment?!"

Many are still fighting the good fight, but fuck me, I dropped out 10-years ago.
