Ive never felt older in my life than last week when I read about an app called "TikTok" repeatedly and in various places over the course of 2 days. Apparently, it's the hot shit and everyone was talking about it as if it was the most normal and well-known thing in the world. I still have no clue what it is. :rofl:

This is how my parents must have felt when I was talking about instagram in late 2013...



Oh, another way to feel old is to name drop "myspace" to teenagers and see them giving you the cavemen stare having no clue what you're talking about.


TikTok is basically the new vine

You aren't missing anything

Never used Vine either. I'm a dinosaur when it comes to social media in general. ;)

Btw, I just read that TikTok increased it's user base in the US by a factor of 5.5 between Oct. 17 and March 19, and still continues this almost exponential growth.

Maybe it's time for me to look for a nice tar pit...

You might think that, but you are wrong.

His parents benefited from availability of jobs due to world war 2, the best economy in history and the best house prices in history.

My mother was born in Siberia after my grandmother got shipped there in the 50s by commies who hated Christians.
