"Leaving Twitter" ~ This is the answer to most of what ails the world today. Simply leave. Walk away. Do Not Comply.

Or, follow Christopher Walken's example, and just say "No""

I cannot understand why anyone would want to be a part of Twitter—or Facebook.

"Today's narcissist, instead of gazing at his/her reflection, rearranges his/her Facebook page."

Facebook is the main source of communication with my far flung friends and family.

I use it to talk to and entertain them. I keep the ads off, not a member of any groups, certainly don't follow any news or politicians, etc.

It's just a tool, the modern equivalent of the old phone system. (I'm 56).

Oh, you are missing most of the fun. Start thinking about something you should research potentially to buy. Pay special attention to NOT running any searches on any computer for a few days. The item you were thinking about will appear in your Facebook feed. Now how do they do that?

Original quote from ADBUSTERS magazine, Sept/Oct 2011:

"Instead of falling in love with his own image in a pond, today's narcissist gazes adoringly at his own Facebook page."

I use them for my business. My business is based on Facebook groups.

I read somewhere that Twitter can be summarized in three words: "I HATE YOU!"
