        Its insufferable. There is no thing I could possibly care less about than the navel gazing drama internal to a particular social media platform.

        Oh I’m sure there’s plenty of people who know Hasan exists without ever realizing who Destiny is and I love that for him.

        I’m sure it chaps little Stevie’s ass every time.
