It's like trying to get all your drunk friends to follow you to the next bar.
@ADDiane ...which is like trying to get my family together to leave on time.
@SNerd I have come to the conclusion that if I don't stand up and walk out the door the group I'm in will be trapped forever.
@ADDiane just need the classic #FreeBeer sign pointing this way ๐Ÿบ If you pour it, they will come. ๐Ÿ˜†
@ADDiane dude seriously like reporters are still posting their colleagues getting suspended. Like just abandon ship already.
@ADDiane lol, I've been there a few times! Definitely feels similar.
@ADDiane we are on the same page !

@ADDiane the drunk metaphor also explains the various spellings of mastodon!

I follow a number of geo/palaeo types, so everyone would probably then decide to go to the "Plasticene Elephant" instead.

@ADDiane You the designated driver? lol
@ADDiane to me it feels like Rickโ€™s American cafe. Weโ€™re all fleeing to here, hoping to find a permanent place.
@ADDiane and they keep wanting to go in the fancy one with a door man and a line, instead of this cool neighborhood pub right here
@ADDiane I made need to quote this, far too accurate. LOL
@ADDiane You focus on the fun ones, let the others figure it out.
@ADDiane it really felt that way 6 weeks ago

@ADDiane

#twittermigration

what a wonderful analogy. And I don't even drink anymore!

@ADDiane Instant evergreen ๐ŸŒฒ๐Ÿ™Œ
@ADDiane Trying to haul along that one guy who canโ€™t leave until heโ€™s invited someone to meet him outsideโ€ฆ
@ADDiane I had to Boost and Favorite your post ๐Ÿ––๐Ÿผ
@ADDiane standing outside the old bar, fire shooting out the window openings, "Come on folks, let's try that next bar, the one that's not on fi re!"
@ADDiane @swahl Though weโ€™re not going to the next bar. Weโ€™re going to that awesome brewery with the great patio. And itโ€™s in that nearby town with all the other great breweries.
@ADDiane Similarly, youโ€™ll likely end up saying, โ€œToldja so.โ€
@ADDiane
Except the last bar smelled like raw sewage and there was a fight breaking out in the parking lot. It didn't take much to convince me to leave.
@ADDiane Iโ€™m putting very little effort in this
@Girl_a_whirl ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป
@ADDiane
Them: โ€œItโ€™s too hard to find people because they have all those different server names.โ€
Me: โ€œYou mean like email?โ€
Them: Itโ€™s too complicated. Itโ€™s too difficult. Itโ€™s too confusing. Itโ€™s tooโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€
Me: โ€œHow hard can it be if over 3000 people per hour are joining?โ€
Them: โ€œNo. Weโ€™re going to Post. Itโ€™s easier.โ€
Me: โ€œOK. Look me up when the latest iteration of super rich venture capitalist pisses you off.โ€
@ADDiane ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ‘ Perfect analogy.
@ADDiane @MaaikeV HAHAHAHA! True this! ๐Ÿ˜
@ADDiane lol, this, I went back into the bar yesterday to tell them โ€œdonโ€™t you realize itโ€™s closing time, come on!!!โ€
@Phreba ๐ŸŽถ you don't have to go home but you can't stay here ๐ŸŽถ i love chumbawumba
@ADDiane if this wasnโ€™t about #twittermigration, it shoulda/coulda/woulda been โ˜๐Ÿผ
@paninid nah I'm just trying to get to the next bar

@ADDiane @paninid

So, I'm having to work, keeps the nets running. Can you bring me a drink? lol

@ADDiane I wanted to see how the fight turned out but OK
@ADDiane if you flash them they will follow you
@ADDiane They are easier to convince when the bar owner is also drunk, vomits on the tables, starts shouting and hitting the customers.
@ADDiane I like the tipsy strangers already here.
