What is Social media?
"Social media is a construct using the internet to interconnect people in groups, forums, and individually so they can interact without being anywhere near each other."
-John C. Dvorak, N.A. Episode 1066

-Adam Curry, N.A. Episode 1066

What does "Social media" mean?
Online networks where both adolescents and young adults go to express one of two statements:
1) "I'm complaining about my boring, shitty life." Used as an alternative to actually making life interesting.
2) "Look how superior my boring, shitty life is to your boring, shitty life" Used to passively belittle the only 250 people the individual knows.
Also used by middle aged adults mostly to post pictures of cats.
Popular websites are Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
Person 1: "I'm insecure about my life so I will post a picture on the social media site Facebook, of me having a great time. Although, most of that time was pretty shitty."
Person 2: *sees picture* "Wow, my life is pretty shitty compared to theirs."
Person 3: "I hate my job because I'm uneducated and nobody ever taught me how to work hard. I think I will tweet about it on the social media site Twitter, so maybe people will pity me."
Person 2: *reads tweet* "At least my life isn't that shitty."
Social media - what does it mean?
Truly an awful place. Never before could you see how much of a stupid dopamine addicted attention whore the people you thought were cool are. All SNSs are awful in their own way but naturally the awful people their SNS is known for will argue with you about how the others are worse.
Twitter: A social media site where all the people you thought were reasonable can gather to share their stupidity and smear it onto your face.
Reddit: A social media site where all the people you thought were funny can gather to share their belief in how smart they are and smear it onto your face.
4chan: A social media site where all the people you thought were just weird can gather to share their smarts but more importantly, use them to be idiotic creeps.
Instagram: A social media app where all the people you thought were shallow airheads can gather to share they are, indeed, shallow airheads.
Google+:
Discord: A social media site where all the people you thought were cool can gather to share their desperation for social contact (see e-dater) and lack of good things, or anything at all, to do. Or just be pedophiles.
Tumblr: A social media site where all the people you think are annoying can gather to regurgitate each others' thoughts and confirm how annoying they are.
Facebook: Idek anymore.
Social media - meaning
Social Media is a generalization to many device software that connects users via the internet. In many instances these include posting, tagging, etc. As well as a connection between people, it doubles as a popularity scheme. Many people can achieve and/or obtain more fame and fortune via social media through awareness and recognition. As well as larger "idols" on these platforms, others in small communities and/or groups can also compare numbers and counts of popularity via "followers" that may change the perception of a certain person. Either putting them on a high pedestal or ruining their social life (leads to this in many cases due to irreverence and the lack of understanding of how to not be a narcissist). Apart from communication and popularity social media doesn't have much. Although to sharpen these two aspects of these software, you must spend long amounts or be sucked into spending long amounts of time on it. This is shown through newer generations, always caring about their self-image, correlating it with self-worth. Concluding this, Social Media and all that regarding of, is a pure waste of time, time that could be spent sharpening skills required more then being popular in life.
I spent 15 hours on Social Media and now I feel like garbage.
Social media - definition
Hym "Here's another thing I don't think I went into. I didn't start using social media until recently. Come to find out, not only am I the lowest filth on the planet but I also believe/think all the wrong things, if I've ever done anything reprehensible in my entire life people that are (either) from my past or that I've never met can take away whatever success I manage to achieve, my dick is too small, the country is on the verge of collapse, I don't 'work hard enough', I need to spend all my money/time on 'improving myself' because if I don't I'm a piece of shit and don't deserve anything out of life, and even saying any of this out loud ALSO MAKES ME A PIECE OF SHIT because I'm 'complaining' instead of 'doing something about it'. Ummmm... Women should be fucking retards instead of me, people are perfectly justified in hating me but if I hate everyone else it's 'anti-human'...
Let's see... What else? Killing babies and little boy drag-queen competitions are fine but burning some cripple molesters alive is 'evil' if the cripple molesters have a vagina.... What else? I have to pay people money to talk to them. Hollywood directors will turn me into a movie (Agent of chaos!? Who else says that but me!?). I can't go to college because people who live outside of objective reality will piss and moan to the faculty until thrown out.... Women and the men they fuck instead of me are better than me... People who are dumb as dog-shit and (technically) evil have a million dollars and I don't... And they control the government... I'm just as safe as I would be if no government existed at all but I still have to pay them money or I get thrown in a cage... I have to help protect everyone's kids, wife's, and sisters in exchange for 0 dollars or sex... If I say the wrong thing publicly a lynch mob will form outside of my apartment and they will Muammar Gaddafi my butthole... I'm probably going to starve because of food shortages and/or my only monetizable assets have been stolen or reappropriated for evil and were stolen in front of 60 million people and everyone else doesn't see a problem with it. I have to care about other people (or I'm a piece of shit) while (simultaneously) 'minding my own business'... I'm probably going to die of prostate cancer... Yeah... I think there is some overlap on there but whatever. Social media is dope.

Social media
Something that’s amazing! Life changing, great, so many good things come from this. But wait..no it’s not. It’s pressure, anxiety. I’m sorry to bring the dark side down on things but I can’t help it. It’s bullying, pain, feeling worthless, feeling like you don’t measure up.
“Social media will be the death of me”
Social media
Theres not really anything social about social media, if anything, social media encourages people to be distant from each other and in their own little world/bubble. There are people nowadays who won't do anything in life if theres not a picture or video to post and comment about. They live to be seen on social media, YouTube, or reality TV, where everything is staged. What happened to enjoying what you were doing so much at the time that you didnt think to film it, you already missed your opportunity to film it and it didnt matter, you got to be human for a few minutes, you were as close to who you really were as you get, no image. That must have ended in the 90s with VCR's for some people.
Social media provides the illusion of being part of a large network, meanwhile some people are getting rich via this platform. There was a time before social media where people actually knew each other in real life and had actual life experience with the other person, rather than the virtual image of someone on a computer screen.
