        this changes in Twitter are to Donald Trump more opportunity to say more stupid things

          AnonD-696542, 27 Sep 2017Twitter is for losers Can't agree more

            Twitter should be banned, any idiot can tweet about anything and annoy more idiots to cause serious waves of backlash from more idiots, I mean guys haven't you seen South park? :)

                    Oathbreaker, 27 Sep 2017LeBron can now type "U bum" over and over. And Trump can type I won over and over. Trump rocks.

                      Can't believe this is a news! 140 characters, which is beyond awful to express anything properly, has run for a decade, that's not a news, 280 characters, which is still low, is a news! Unbelievable!

                          Great. Now, I can double the hate comments. Double the fun. Twitter made the world more perfect and hateable.

                              Sublevel had 640 character limit since 2014. 280 aren't much different from 140.

                                Damn. Trump is going to lose his little mind now. He can vent at the NFL and high five the Ku Klux Klan all in the same tweet.
