    Default Social Media Warfare

    I am currently engaged in a battle of social accounts with my roommate. I loathe the twitters and facebooks and barely spend any time on them (i only really have a facebook though as you will see that changed). My roommate on the other hand lives for that sort of stuff and we finally have come to virtual blows. He says I can't get more followers or friends on facebook than he can. Well facebook I have covered..... I had 150 friend requests waiting and actually sent out my first few so that i nearly tripled my friend count in total. However, Twitter is something i find personally distasteful. However, I dislike losing so I made one to prove the point (and tbh they are sort of neat in some ways) So I implore all of you to add me on twitter. I'll add you back or whatever. Also you can see how incredibly fascinating my hyper secret life is.

    as stupid as this may seem I want to prove a point regarding how inane and pointless it is to whore yourself out for these.

    so to prove said point i am going to proceed to whore myself out. This is possibly the only place on the internet I feel safe enough giving this kind of information.

    Whoring yourself out to social media is pointless and inane and you are now going to prove the point by whoring yourself out to social media...

    I don't get it.

    If that were the only way to see it then I'd be one of the 7 billion again once he had added everybody else, too...

    how easy it is to collect "followers" and that it doesnt really matter if you have fifty "followers" or 5. i am enjoying twitter though to be honest its very interesting to see like celebrities and sports players i like.

    Social Media War

    A strange game.

    The only winning move is to not play.

    Indeed. My take too.

    I got bored of twitter so I made a facebook.

    It's hiliraous ask ACIN
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
