I live my life in the real world where trainwrecks like Brianna Wu are abhorred and shunned

I just checked... I haven't posted on Twitter since August 20th of 2015.

And even then it was mostly about the Nickolaus Pacione poo poo that started here on SA.

@autoaim_cfg got 37 tweets spanning six years. Do people actually USE twitter for anything? I sure as hell don't use it.

What's the point of Twitter, unless you're some kind of b-list celeb?

Someone says they like you, someone else says they hate you, that's two people talking about you. Internet metrics aren't about whether people like or hate you, it's about whether they talk about you at all.

The difference is that in one case you should feel good about yourself and in the other you shouldn't.

But what if saying they hate you provides a carthatic release for them, and it makes you happy because your goal isn't to be liked, it's to improve people's lives by encouraging them to direct their negative emotions towards a target other than their loved ones?
