So I hope you don't mind if I go wander out of my cell for a while and enjoy a refreshing walk outside. /36 <end rant>

What I've learned from social media is that it's the worst kind of prison, the kind that leaves its cell doors wide open. /35

Truth is I've never "destroyed" anything on Twitter other than my own free time. /34

Meanwhile the little pitchfork guy says "because we are a narcissistic exhibitionist who craves attention & approval from strangers." /33

So again I ask myself, why do I do this? The little halo guy on my shoulder says "we enjoy entertaining and amusing people." /32

I'm grateful the internet allows me to collect some amazing pals, but at some point it's time to enjoy the ones I already have. /31

Very few of those are based on politics; most are based on cars, architecture, etc. Shared politics are shitty basis for a friendship. /30

As I said, I've never made $ directly/indirectly from my online life; the payoff has always been connecting with kindred spirits in RL. /29

Hello, my name is Dave and I have a problem. /28

Twitter is bad, but FB is worse. Twitter tells you random strangers are obnoxious assholes, FB tells you your friends & family are. /27

It's not the internet (which is still useful), it's the sweet crack cocaine of social media, now America's #1 addiction problem. /26

Don't worry, I'll be done with this stream-of-conscious thread thing soon. /25
