    You probably meant twitting, but I get the gist.

    I've never even owned a Twitter account. I go on Reddit sometimes, but that's closer to texting. Twitter makes no sense to me. Why would I send the world, unfiltered, my extemporaneous thoughts when I am some just some slub? There is literally no point I can think of other than unjustifiably patting my own ego.

    It's not about you! The point of Twitter is to follow funny people, and there are a LOT of them on Twitter.

    I'd still rather just use Facebook. It's more personal and I don't feel like I'm spraying something random graffiti on an Internet wall.

    I assumed this was a satiric commentary on our commander in chief. My apologies.

    No. That's actually the way I feel about Twitter. But yeah, he definitely stands out. Anyway, if some people enjoy the platform, more power to them.

    I hate Twitter. Most assume that's because I'm an angry old white man. That's bullshit (fucking kids these days). It has been demonstrated that other angry old white men absolutely LOVE Twitter and can't get enough of it.

    Nope, I hate it because I believe in the integrity of language. I even spell out complete words when I text my kids. I find that Twitter spew to be an incomprehensible abomination. It encourages lassitude. I'll have none of that! Now get the fuck off my lawn and leave me alone.

    I'm just indifferent too it. If people like it I got no problem. It just seems to me the Internet portal to what can become an angry, callous mob. At least with Facebook I can limit my comments to Friend's posts or Groups I subscribe too.

    That's the lassitude I referenced. People just blast shit out there with no details, no context and no explanation just hoping for a reaction from the other side. It's Trolling for Dummies.
