Here’s 15 Hilariously Dumb Uses Of Twitter’s New 280 Character Limit
In case you’re not native to the land of the Twittersphere, this week the social platform allowed users to increase their character limit to a whopping 280 characters.
While many Twitter regulars are refusing to adopt the new tweet length, sticking with short and sharp posts which gave the social media space its point of difference, many have taken the chance to take the piss out of having so many words to use.
No one needs this many characters and these tweets prove it.
Here are 15 hilariously dumb uses of the new 280 characters limit:
Important Song Lyrics
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground ru— Zach (@zachsimone) November 7, 2017
Fill The Void
How do I know if I have #280characters? Because I just keep typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and typing.
Seriously?
I don't like this.
