Other than CrackMacs, I'd have to look up who all of those people are which tells me I am winning in my mission to use less and less social media for things that aren't of value to me.

I’d imagine a lot of this is deleted now, but I won’t forget.

She’s had run ins with other professionals on there because he asks about something, gets an answer and immediately gets upset because it’s a male who tells her, or things of that nature. Depends on what kind of enjoyment you take from these things.
Based on what you said I looked her up on LinkedIn expecting that she would have a significant presence there but she has basically no activity unless it is not under her personal account.

She’s probably part of the TikTok finance brigade, which I don’t consider a compliment!

If muting isn't your thing, you could always switch the Tapatalk. And then you can't see any tweets!

I looked through a couple scrolls on Twitter and she is such a whiny, conceited little bitch. She is so insufferable.

This "CP is being taken over by teenagers" is my favourite criticism from reddit.

Quote:
Yeah I've been off CP for almost a year now and it's been great.
The place has recently filled up with a bunch of teenagers who don't know #### about hockey and just like to play the victim card when someone disagrees with them.
Um, we had one teenager, TheScorpion and he's now an adult. Of all the criticisms of CP, this was the most hilarious, since our downfall is literally an aging user base.

I find the discourse here is at a much higher level than the subreddit or facebook etc, that's why I come here every day haha.

Who the hell could actually have a problem with TheScorpion? I've met him, he's a super nice kid.

But yeah, screw him for being young and enthusiastic about hockey. It should be like renting a car, you don't get to take an interest in things until you're 25.

/r/Calgary has some really toxic elements. But I guess that's social media in general.

/r/Calgary is terrible in general. Unless you're complaining about the c-train or posting skyline photos, all other discussion is discouraged. I always feel bad when someone new asks a question and just gets jumped on for not already knowing the answer, and having the audacity to ask

Definitely was one, I'd be down to have another. I'm curious how things have changed, other than just getting older because we don't get new members anymore

He got 'burnt out' by being 'bored?'

How does that trick even work?
