Author, Kate O'Neill used her platform on Twitter to encourage people participating in online activities like the recent, trending profile picture aging meme on Facebook, to slow down and think about it critically. O'Neill asks people to consider how willingly posting that information online for Facebook's seemingly sentient algorithm to digest, can have a ripple effect on society as a whole; how that information can be fed into worldwide databases, sold off to advertising agencies, and used to exploit the very people that upload it, without considering the impacts, in the process. She doesn't aim to inspire panic in this Twitter thread, but instead, she wants us to think critically when considering the fast-changing landscape of the world around us. Some solid advice! 

Damn these idiots for making us remember situations we desperately want to forget!

Man, oh man, this ancient artifact of a computer actually looks like it'd be a whole lot of fun to play around with. A true throwback. 

Ugh, there's a moment of shimmering hope in this Twitter thread when you almost think that strange old dude who showed up for the clothes dryer wasn't going to be a piece of garbage, but then boom, he's disgusting. We can only imagine what kind of emotional scarring was left from this terribly creepy encounter. The fact that the dude showed up at her house drunk again (late at night), adds a whole another layer of creepy stalker vibes to this thread. 

These fine and mighty and depraved Tinderellas all but stepped on 'dating app' ceremony, and instead opted for shameless, sexualized-displays of self-promotion. Are some of these borderline insane, and giving off the distinct whiff of potential sex addiction? Suure. Are they also dually awesomely transparent? Absolutely, and there's no doubt they're the kind of profiles that didn't rake in a truckload of right swipes... Tinder really is full of surprises. You never know what you'll find. 

Life just loves to throw curveballs our way. If it seems like things are kicking along smoothly, you probably get that uncomfortable ache in the pit of your stomach that everything's about to get shaken up in one way or another. It just seems to be the natural course of life. We can always count on it being consistently inconsistent. These people's real life plot twists certainly contribute toward that outlook. 

God help these clueless cringe-instigators. 

One of our favorite pastimes is admiring the cringe explosion that is old people using social media. Twitter user @dogwithablog_69 has made all of this a lot easier with this Twitter thread of the elderly and technologically ignorant completely abusing Facebook's cheerful status banners. The collection is impressive, a very worthwhile way of getting your Monday procrasturbation on. 

This the kind of shit that makes us want to scream!
