“That’s where my dad goes to complain about stuff.”
“…is where my mom tags me in photos that I don’t want anyone to see.”
“It’s mainly for old people. Like my mom and dad. And my grandpa writes on it in all caps.”
“It’s the social network my parents don’t know how to use.”
“It’s basically the Wild West of the internet. Pretty much anything goes.”
“Twitter is where my parents can’t keep up with me.”
“…it’s where I can say what I want to without being judged. And nobody knows who I really am.”
