#123: Stop Surfing The Net
If you still say you’re “surfing” the “net,” you’ve got to stop right now. I said RIGHT NOW! That phrase is just so 2003, or maybe 1998 — I don’t know, all those years pretty much run together.
Don’t spend any time in “chat rooms,” either. Or use the word “cyberspace,” except ironically.
In fact, if you want to get all modern about it, what you should do instead of surf is Twitter. I signed up for Twitter, allegedly, and I’ve gotten reports that a couple of people are “following” me, an activity whose dullness might only be matched by actually being me. What are you doing now? I’m typing. What are you doing now? I’m typing. What are you doing now? I’m still fucking typing, goddammit!
The real point, though, is that web words have moved on. For a primer of a hundred of the newest, watch this educational video.
LOL!
