    Being constantly reminded by the marketing "experts" that Twitter is a vital platform for increasing brand awareness is really pissing me off. Swimming in a sewer is not something I want to do, no matter what the payoff is. I will be very happy if Twitter rots and dies before the lettuce. Of course, Instagram and Facebook are also problematic and LinkedIn also has some issues. :brood:

    I've only really ever used LinkedIn, but even that quickly morphed from a professional career-orientated networking site to just another social media cesspool of idiots posting photos of their kids and/or engaging in highly-politicized debate.

    Fuck social media.

    In fact, fuck people in general. :bergman:

    (Sorry for channelling my inner Uncle Albert.)

    Blackmailing potential advertisers if they don't keep giving you money matter what is a heck of a big brain strategy.
