I have a friend that is looking to school for his MBA but has been delaying it for years. I asked why? Was it the money? No it wasn't the money, it was "I just don't have enough time".
Dumb asse spends 19 hours a day on Twitter but doesn't have enough time to go back to school. He could up his salary by 20-30K but instead he improves his knowledge of stupid things that Shaq, Nate and wilson say everyday.
Twitter is the devil. Facebook, Myspace and sports forums(ultimateknicks excluded) are his minions.
Also perfect for the youngsters we are producing in our schools who cannot read more than a line or two of anything without being bored or having trouble with understanding vocabulary.
I think what is happening in Iran is the first good thing to come out of Twitter. When that thing is done, I say we burn Twitter to the ground.
I actually get facebook and myspace a little bit(of course depending on how it's used). It is a great way to keep in touch with long lost friends, see pictures of their kids. I use it and have been able to stay in touch with long lost friends which is very cool. As for Twitter, maybe I'm too old. I just don't understand the purpose of telling people that you went to the bathroom, or are having salami for lunch. And I'm really not sure I understand following some celebrity around and hearing the utter nonsense they write. Go back to this original post and pretend for a second you don't know that it's Ron Artest writing it. Any of it even make sense? If it were Bob Thompson that lives next door to you, would you care?
I need the young cats to help me out on this, explain to me why I'm old?
