God, do I hate Twitter

I love Twitter. It's better for my soul to argue online with complete strangers than it is to argue online with friends and family like on Facebook.

Why argue at all? It’s not like that’s a good thing

Wouldn't be surprised if he's the mvp this season, seems highly motivated this season compared to last year.

It's a great thing. How else am I going to convince someone to change their mind or vice versa if I don't argue with them and just listen to people who agree with me?

I like Twitter. Hate trolls and bots that are only there to cause trouble.

I do not own a cell phone
I do not do Twitter, FB, Instagram etc
My only social media is Patsfans
I do not like to be controlled. I never feel controlled on Patsfans. I only go there when NFL news breaks I want to read about and discuss with like minds. I like to learn without arguing.
The world has become more distracted. People now live for views, likes and blocks. Face to face conversations and Empathy are lost.
Yeah I know you will look at me and say what a crazy nut. I call it LIBERATED. Crazy like a fox

You're saying the most motivated athlete ever is more motivated this year than last year? I don't think its changed, he didn't have a offense last year and still won the Superbowl and was like 4th in points. I cant wait for JG to get reinstated. I'm betting on him lasting the whole year and then some

I'm with you. I still have an instagram account but rarely use it, in fact I deactivated it in the fall for a couple months but reactivated christmas day to message with family in Canada. I've never had a facebook, got rid of my twitter last year. Definitely with you on the views, likes, worship etc. of our culture today. The narcissism is strong across all age groups from what I can tell - girls and their endless selfies, dudes showing off workouts, cars, guns etc, parents with their children. I miss the days when everyone didn't constantly feel the need to share everything.

That is why families are growing apart and kids are so mentally weak this generation. Face to Faces and verbal communication is a lost art. Without those two personality learning blocks society has become disconnected in many ways. Humbleness is lost and everyone is a tough guy behind a keyboard. Dangerous future

What I'm saying is last off season he seemed to take a longer break than normal compared to this off season where his already posting videos and pictures of himself already getting into rhythm.

I guess I don’t care if someone disagrees with me enough to change their mind. Now if I hear someone state a false fact, I may correct them or ask if they’re sure that’s correct.

Arguing infers anger so people that actually argue aren’t good to be around. Calm discussions are much easier to handle for healthy people. Arguing isn’t something emotionally balanced people do often

What are we doing? I got a chuckle out of it.....and it's kind of ironic that social media is getting slammed by people using an online social media forum. People abuse and are owned by lots of otherwise okay things. I dont tweet or do myface either but this feels like walking into a pub and then stand up the bar to tell everyone in there that you're not an alcoholic even though you're having a drink while saying it

K but circle back to the topic being Twitter then have a laugh at these sentences lol

I actually like Twitter. I first joined back in 2012 or 2013, whenever the last NHL lockout was, to get news on the lockout. I followed a lot of the NHL players, to get updates (admittedly I was not nice to a lot of them, due to my anger about the lockout). I now follow a decent amount of athletes on the teams I follow.

I really like getting news about all the sports teams I love, as well as news of the world. People posting about both subjects, also provide links to articles I want to read about those subjects. So I follow a lot of sports writers, as well as news agencies, and political writers. Living outside of Boston, I love following people like Mike Reiss and Doug Kyed, amongst others.
