Yeah, it seems to be a mess.  Glad I don't read any of it.  I hope kids these days have thicker skins than I would have.  They've grown up with it so perhaps they're used to it.

I first heard of Twitter in 2008, and before long most people my age I knew were using it.  I've never used it, but I reckon by 2011 it had a lot going on.

Oh, I know Twitter existed back then. Just like Facebook. I’m just not sure how active they were back in that era. At one time, message boards like this one dominated social media. I did not join either one until years later. 

2011, did instagram, tik tok, and all the other sites exist ?  I don’t think they did. Anyways, it’s just a little different I think.

Can't say I remember when Instagram blew up.  

As for Twitter, because I never used it, I couldn't tell you about its cfb content compared to message boards.  I just know that in 2008 everyone I knew wouldn't shut up about it and were apparently airing all their thoughts there.

9.5 million viewers. Would’ve thought it would be more.

Yeah I was a little surprised as well.  The numbers probably would have been higher if Texas hadn't jumped out to an early lead.  Switch the second half with the first half and it almost certainly tops 10M.
