There are many things i haven’t done since 2010. Swimming 10 laps a day. Cycling 6km (to and fro office). Playing weekly football with adequate training and warmups. Turning vegetarian. Donating monthly to Wikipedia and Greenpeace. And on the online front, i haven’t engaged in public conversations in over five years now. Similarly, i haven’t been to tweetups either (more on that later). But i’ve gone to meet Twitter friends who duped me with their ‘surprise’ of calling fellow tweeps without asking me first. But i must admit i do miss indulging in timeline convos, especially when people take silence for granted and misuse it against you. I’ve attended the funerals of so many brilliant comebacks inside my head since ’10 that it’s not funny although the comebacks were. I’ve somehow managed to resist myself for so long now that it doesn’t really matter. When you’re silent, you see the clearer picture. You witness otherwise normal folks resorting to misinformation and blatant lies just because they know you’re not going to clarify anything anyway.
