Twitter

This new craze amuses me. I'll admit, I bought into the social networking stuff for a while, though at this point I just use it occasionally to reconnect with people and respond to people that message me. This twitter thing makes two very bad assumptions for internet surfers such as myself.

1. That I want people to know what I'm doing.
2. That I care what anyone else is doing.

I much prefer a blog that someone writes that has some sort of historical update to a person's life (though most of my blogs are rants, which I also enjoy reading). The fact that so and so is getting ready to go to the gym, or so and so can't decide what to make for dinner is so incredibly irrelevant. If you update your status or whatever the site calls it multiple times a day, do you REALLY think that your "friends" care that you "are tired" then "ate too much fruit" then "are napping" and then "are wired from red bull?"

What's wrong with emails to your friends?

Wut 1S wif peeple

I keep looking at forums and youtube and I am just trying to understand why everyone is too good for proper grammar, spelling, or even to keep numbers out of words. Anyone that is able to provide some sort of reason will be my new best friend, or BFF 1F i wanna stik wif dis new slang. I think that the part that's the most confusing to me is it has to take longer to write a response with numbers and random caps than not, so it can't even be laziness that causes this.
