![http://www.cartoonart.org/images/twitter.jpg](http://www.cartoonart.org/images/twitter.jpg) How the fuck is it popular? I mean Srsly. Things like the popularity of Twitter makes me want to give up on society all together. And if I hear one more person “Tweeting” he’s getting a…beating. Discuss. Correct answer gets +50 rep points as usual. ---
