Why the fucking fuck is Twitter now showing me everything everyone likes and all replies on on my news feed?

My feed used to show what people WANTED to share - new tweeks and retweets. But now, it's full of likes from things I have no interest in, and people replying to shops/companies that are of no relevance to me. I couldn't care less if someone tells Tesco they're not happy...that's not relevant to me.

And apparently I can't turn this off :evil:

It's more entertaining than any other social media. Where else are you going to see a billionaire call an elderly diver a paedo because he said something mean about his egotistical publicity stunt?

I'm not saying Twitter isn’t great for providing exactly that - but I don’t get how it works and can’t be arsed to find out!

I saw it on the news instead!

I like Twitter. I don't really get Instagram and I definitely don't get Pintrest.

Facebook for pals
insta for hobbies
twitter for news/screeching about politics
I was involved in a discussion about Pintrest with the marketing people at work once, I still don't get it.

Facebook is for posting shit no one really cares about.
Instagram is Facebook but just photos.
Twitter is mainly where adults bitch about companies they are unhappy with in order to try and get something in compensation.
Pinterest is just a crap version of google images with a social media twist.
How about not having a sig at all?

WhatsApp is where I have to keep reminding certain friends that the extreme porn laws in the UK are quite strict and I really, really don't want that shit on my work phone.

Would never dream about putting Whatapp on my works phone, I'd be sacked before the week was out.

One of my mates keeps posting clips from the SimplyLovleh brotherhood or something like that. It's just....wrong. all kinds of wrong.

Sorry Rev. I'll send them to your Myspace account instead. No-one will look there.

I occasionally forget I'm in work and will open WhatsApp in work and have to quickly hide a closeup of someone's genitals.
