This may be worthy of a thread of its own.

My sister does this shit and it really annoys. Whenever she texts me, you'd think it was being written by a 17 year old kid. Stuff like: "What U doing today?" I'm tempted to reply "You're 58 years old. Grow up."

Only way this will happen is if he's an extra on the Walking Dead!

This made me laugh way too hard. Definitely relatable.

As for the OP... reminds me of an epic twitter thread.

I don't do social media like facebook and the others. Everything you write is out there forever. Stupid things you say will likely come back to haunt you.

Para has said something to the effect think about what you wrote before pressing 'submit'. It's good advice.

I think the world was a better and kinder place before social media. It's become a place to instantly and anonymously bully and criticize. And it's become politicized by those who own it.

Just like Eric Bana as Hoot in Blackhawk down saying the his trigger finger is his safety, I say SIGforum is my social media.

I see it as the same as the invention of the boat.
Many just refused this new contraption.
Many used it this way & many used it that way.

Either get in, hang on or tread the water at a distance .... what do you think are the levels of survival ?

I'm kinda one leg in. I'm not gonna throw rocks hoping to knock ppl off just because I'm not all in.
