Thanks for sharing, applegrove.

I don't use Twitter but it appears there were three other tweets about this man. Could you please post them? Thanks, in advance!

4. As i expected, a very touching commentary on our state of affairs

Thanks again, applegrove.

By the way, you wrote that you're not a "Twitter person." I think we could be friends! To me, social media has caused far more trouble than it's worth.

Have a great weekend.

We can't be friends.

(Just kidding.)

But I want to sign up one day in the not too distant future.

14. I think I've responded 30 times in the 5 years I've been on. I like it though.

I just don't want to get into anything with my real name.

10. Infant separation is even worse, because they have no words to process what is happening

And as with this little boy, the gaping wound never heals.


not in my name, you evil bastards
