i don’t mean to be
brash,
but why must we
hash
up every single thing
we want to say?
please, don’t think me
rude,
but your flip atti
-tude
and need to be followed
make me want to stray.
let’s talk face to
face,
and leave symbols their
place,
wrangling numbers,
or as punctuation.
i’m not harshing your
buzz,
or unfriending, be
-cuz:
i’m #justsayin’
i’m #notplayin’

Especially that last stanza.
Especially, especially “i’m not harshing your buzz.”
So much fun!! 🙂
🙂 Yes, really. It’s kind of like Facebook, where every event has to be photographed in a “facebook -worthy pic” with some endearing/ witty words. So with twitter, every thought has to be entered in some category. Nothing can ever just be. Without an internet audience. Without worry of being liked or favorited.
Anyway, just shows my age, I suppose. I get how it could be addictive, but for me it would not be a psychologically good thing. The devil lives in comparisons, and that’s what it’s all about.
So yes, #notplayingeither 🙂
