    One of my wife’s friends gets really upset when people call it Twitter for some reason. She doesn’t even use it. Just gets irate and reminds everyone the name was changed so if you want people to know what you’re talking about you should call it X.

    Strange hill to choose…

      wifes friend

      “NOBODY USES TWITTER ANYMORE SINCE ELON MUSK BOUGHT IT!!!”

      “Yeah, ok. You’re right, but not for the reasons you think.”
