Real talk! But... the 'Bobbleheads' will still purchase their smart TV's and get themselves all hooked up to 5G and the 'internet of things' won't they.... It wouldn't matter if you told them they're about to be irradiated by deadly military tech; as long as they remain idiots they're like...Hey man, why don't you come on over here and stick your boot on my throat, I think I'm breathing a little too well. God save us from the idiots. #PeopleAsleepOnThisThreadFor8Years Don't turn around, they'll be pulling strings behind your back while you slumber!

Caution on Twitter urged as tourists barred from USHolidaymakers have been warned to watch their words after two friends were refused entry to the US on security grounds after a tweet. Before his trip, Leigh Van Bryan wrote that he was going to "destroy America". He insisted he was referring to simply having a good time - but was sent home. Trade association Abta told the BBC that the case highlighted that holidaymakers should never do anything to raise "concern or suspicion in any way". The US Department for Homeland Security picked up Mr Bryan's messages ahead of his holiday in Los Angeles. Somewhere I heard recently that every tweet ever sent is being saved and stored by the gubmit in the Library of Congress or something similar. Everything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law someday. Why make it easy for them ?
