    So do you enjoy taking part in a twitter row/argument?

    Personally, now and again I do. I post my opinions, I am honest with them, mostly polite 99% of the time but sometimes well...and I can wear people down if it comes to who gets the last say.
    On boards I do get into long drawn out debates less and less, and more inclined to let it go for peace sake, just give an opinion and take or leave it.

    I do like celebrity rows on social media, this post has been inspired by Calvin Harris who had a good rant in the last hour on twitter. He accused Taylor Swift of trying to make him her new Katy.
    I do like it when the claws are out...

    Trump is hilarious at the old Twitter.

    Sorry, OP. Perhaps, as someone who can allegedly express themselves both succinctly and convincingly, you could synopsize your doubtlessly compelling point in 140 characters?

    No.

    Sorry.
    Should have done 1/4, 2/4, 3/4 and 4/4.

    :pac:

    Jesus, no. If your post needs parts, it doesn't belong on twitter. Similarly for those arsewipes who write half a meaningless sentence and a link.

    Nah. That twitter is daft hey. It'll never catch on.

    Sweet Christ no! A kind of hell I'd say. Arguing online is futile - it only took me about ten years to work that one out :pac: - especially somewhere like Twitter where it turns into an incoherent mess.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,638 ✭✭✭Teyla Emmagan


    No effing interest whatsoever.

    I never argue with people on Twitter. I don't follow people whose opinions annoy me. If some random person disagrees with something I've said, I just leave them to it. If they persist, I mute them.

    I'm of the "don't get Twitter" now for a good few years, despite trying on several occasions to "get it".

    Not sure if my lifes any the worse or better for it either?

    Same with snapchat.
