Dear #SocialMedia, I love you ...
Sunday, February 13, 2011 at 7:20PMBAHHHHHHHHH!!!! Have I said in the last 5 minutes how much I LOOVVEEEE social media?!?! Like seriously! This shit gets me out of bed in the morning, and tucks my nerdy little heart in every night. Dude, I totally get off on it ... sometimes literally.
Ohhhhhh yeah baby, tweet me just like that ... uhhh deliver that DM, right there, #OMG
WHEW! 'Scuse please. Don't know what CAME over me .... hahahahahahahaha I made a funny. Alrite, all that being said, I was TOTALLY in full on party mode on Friday, and unfortunately all of my actual IRL friends were busy. Super lameo-denado. I just wasn't having it. Um, hello, did you see this update? Yeah.
I don't ever take "no" for an answer. I'll take not now, or maybe in a bit ... but never no. I was out and about, and I was NOT about to head back to the apartment where I know I would drown myself in work. I needed a break - BIG TIME!!!!!!! Thanks to the wonders of twitter though, it didn't take long. Watch!
OMMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGGGG!!! AHHHHHH-MAZZINNGGGGG!!!
I had so so so so so so much fun at that party! FOR REALS! HAHA! How randomly awesome is it that I was invited to a costume party and totally fit in since I was in my Spirithood! Like, when does that EVER HAPPEN!?!?!?! I throw myself at social media all day everyday, and it STILL trips me out what gets thrown back at me. So fucking rad!!!
Thanks so so so much @JasonAMatthews for the epic adventure! I really needed it.
I feel like this goes without saying in this community, but if you aren't on twitter yet you are a fucking idiot. No really, you are an idiot. Twitter is the GREATEST thing since nutella on whole grain bread. mmmmmmmmm NUUUUTTTEEELLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAA *drool*

Get on it. Get all up on it, and get 'er done. It's AH-MAZING and for reals, you're missing out on some epic adventures. There you go, and that is all.

Yes let us all join in and be bullies to those who refuse to conform to peer pressure. Everybody has Twitter, if you "fucking idiots" do not have what everyone has, then you are stupid. And if everyone jumps onto incoming traffic and you refuse, you are a total loser totes mcgotes.
wah wah wah.
Next time you need to do a OMG SOCIAL MEDIA IS THE BEST YOU ARE A FUCKING JOKE IF YOU DON'T GET THAT post, please remember:
Every generation thinks technology has changed everything. In reality, it's just a continuing cycle. Mail changed everything. Then the phone changed everything. Then email changed everything. And now social media is changing everything. Until the next thing. Which is probably coming sooner than you realize.
Social media is fine. I like Twitter. But we're still the same people. Teenage girls who spent hours on their landline shifted to spending hours on the internet and then shifted to spending hours on their smartphone. Communicating online isn't new. It's just getting easier to use and it's more widely available.
We are not special because we live in 2011. And we are not special because we can get costume ideas from people who have nothing better to do than check to see what other people are thinking or doing.
absolutely dan--o. i agree! its a fact that tech is always cyclical .... i operate in the now. i dont think about the past, or the future, i focus on this moment. in this moment, there is something very special occurring that is causing a severe shift in general communication and overall interaction. its overwhelming how much i adore it ... #thatisall
