I remember being so annoyed with Twitter in the late 2000s when it seemed like all of the posts were super boring with people just saying dull things like "eating a sandwich" and now we're in the TikTok age where the content is equally as mind-numbing, but now we also have to watch them eating those dumb sandwiches.

@Alice There was an account I followed early on that every now and then would retweet like 100 tweets from different people saying “Eating toast” or some small variation thereof. Like most comedy, repetition was the key.

@Alice And watching people reacting to watching people eating sandwiches.

@Alice I don’t get people here bashing TikTok. Don’t use it if you don’t like it. And if you do use it, what you’ll see is based on an algorithm that’s picked up on what’s kept your attention previously. Really folks. You’re telling on yourselves and making yourselves look foolish.

Everyone seems to be obsessed with passive income but I’m set on passive-aggressive income, so you should probably pay me back if you care even the slightest amount about our friendship and how much I thought it meant to you.

@Alice I would like to pay you back, but all of my money is tied up in Star Wars collectibles.

It's not reassuring that doctors and lawyers only practice.

Edit: Sorry to anyone who clicked. I meant to post this on my alt. Moved the photo over there.

@Alice Irony, and people making the obvious joke 😄

@Alice So, I was a high school science teacher. A fair number of students expected me to be an expert on all areas of science. I had to sort answers into six types:

1. I know that, here’s an easy answer

2. a) I know that, there’s a far deeper interpretation of that, here’s a learner-appropriate answer

2. b) After pushback on (a): “All models are wrong, some are useful” -George Box

3. I’m not sure, here’s a plausible answer and my percentage confidence that it’s right (I loved those answers)

4. No clue, lemme get back to you

5. No one knows, scientists love your question

6. We’ll probably never know, ask God when you see him 😉

I am going to die on this hill because it is very steep and I am incredibly out of shape.

@Alice

Google+ was the best social network out there.

The ability of creating circles gave so much control about who you share content with, it was amazing.

@Alice hm, might be time for them to launch Google++ that they've been working on behind closed doors 🤔

I wrote a joke that I thought was funny but then I googled it and found something similar had already been posted because a time traveler stole it and posted it in the past to make it look like they beat me to it so I had to delete it.

@Alice don't delete. We all have got the same thoughts by living in the same times and talking/reading about the same things. That's the joy about the Internet. Just speak your mind.
