For the life of me, I can't see why you would save Twitter in this scenario ** -- VAGentleman05 04/07/2018 12:09PM

Twitter is the worst. FB at least helped me connect with long lost friends -- WahooRQ 04/07/2018 12:39PM

Twitter is essentially Facebook's status update feature. -- MassHoleHoo 04/08/2018 06:35AM
