I have a lot of feelings about this, so perhaps it’s best if I just get it out and move on. I positively hate twitter. Every time I see a link that says “follow us/me on twitter” it makes me cringe. The idea that this is the wave of the future, this is all we have the attention span for anymore? 140 characters of self-promoting bullshit about other people’s boring lives. I know I’m not the most qualified to be ranting about this, as I am writing this on a blog, with the idea that other people will read or want to read it, but I’d like to think that there is a difference between blogging and twittering (can’t even believe that’s an accepted word now), especially in my case because (other than right now) I’m never blogging about myself per say. I feel as if one day my children will be telling their’s “Kids, back when I was your age, Grandma refused to embrace twitter. She would complain that she never had any idea what was going on in my life, but she never read my tweets! She was all ‘Why can’t you just write on my facebook wall like the olden days?’” So at the risk of sounding like an old person who has refused to embrace the internet, I’m putting it out there. And as a reward for reading this, here is a bangin’ tune.
