    Because message boards have existed both in physical and online for a god damn millenia before fucking facebook and myspace were a whisper in the balls of the creator’s fathers. I have no fucking idea who any of you clown shoes are and I don’t fucking care either.

    Children playing show and tell is more social media than online message boards.

          True, you can post definitions and demonstrate that dictionaries are very easy to use.

          Try reading and understanding those definitions next.

          When you are all caught up I won’t be here to finish whatever it is you are trying for here.
