    Reading the article with the letter X in place of Twitter makes me feel like I am reading a pre-generated article with someone forgetting to replace the placeholder with the brand name.

      Meta, x alphabet… All these renamings and they all suck donkey balls. Not one cool name. And all 3 have gotten SIGNIFICANTLY worse.

        Nah, they’d fit pretty good to the dystopia you’ll be / you’re already living in. Don’t tell me the acronyms of GAFAM (Google (Alphabet), Apple, Facebook (Meta), Amazon and Microsoft ) and FAANG ( Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix and Google ) don’t sound like some end-of-world ushering big corps à la umbrella corporation.

              LOL! That seems like a natural evolution of Carl’s Jr’s weird, male oriented marketing.

                It’s from the movie Idiocracy, for those unaware. Their slogan used to be “Don’t bother me, I’m eating!”

                  Ah, I started that movie, but I never finished it. I really should watch it again. Although I guess I can just read the news for the prequel.
