THE DARK TRUTH OF TWITTER

OK OK, so maybe not exactly, but lets take a look at a few things and see if we can make sense of the explosion of Twitter.

Here is Websters Dictionary definition of "twit"

So you are telling me that they created a place for twits to twit, a place where their annoying "thoughts" were justly limited to 140 characters? Wonderful!

"But they are called tweets, not twits"

Oh, so you mean that not only did they ensure that no one can say anything worthwhile or intelligent due to the 140 character limit, but they are referring to their members as birds to distract from the fact that a twitter should mean "one in the act of twitting"?

Makes sense that you are so easily fooled...

Its really not helping the case...

And look at this list of the top followed people on the twit wagon. Obama is only on there because he was the "hip president". You are hard pressed to find 5 intelligent people in the top 100. Britney Spears is number 11 in case you were wondering. I didnt even know she was still a thing.

What kills me the most, is the fact that what we have called the news for the last 10 years, has made twits part of the news experience. They have such respect for We The People, that they feed us twits!

What fucking world am I living in?!

Come on people!

Ask someone 50 years ago who they would follow and they would likely say something like Jesus, Buddha, some great historical figure or philosopher. Today, we fill our heads with junk, and so much so, that those in control of our minds via various media platforms mock us without even hiding it.

Just as what we eat matters, so does what we ingest mentally. We have tons of philosophers to quote and know, but we choose to fill our minds with the people equivalent of Big Macs and cheese-fries. What do you think this does to our minds?

You are what you eat.
