Man am I fuckin’ tired of hearing about Twitter

I know I’m getting older. I know that I am dating myself with not caring about some popular things. Like Facebook — not only have I not bothered with it, I don’t much see the point in it. I’m not clear if I should say “I’m not on Facebook” or “I didn’t get a Facebook” or “I’m not plugged in to the Facebook” so I avoided the construction in the previous sentence entirely. This quite clearly separates me from teenagers. Fine.

But I draw the line at Twitter. Not only do I not see the point of it, but I am goddamned tired of people on TV making a big fuss about it. That slight pause, that very slight head turn, that just as slight smirk before saying “tweets”.

All of ‘em need to get off my goddamned lawn.
