“The Best And Worst Of Twitter”: 50 Of The Most Surprising Takes On Pretty Much Everything (New Pics)
Twitter is a platform that people either love or hate. Some believe the micro-blogging website is excellent for real-time engagement, others, however, say it's "a highly opinionated cesspit" that's just winding everyone up.
You may have realized just how polarizing it can be from our publication on the Facebook group 'The Best and Worst Of Twitter 2' as well.
But if you need more convincing (or simply want to enjoy more chaotic personal takes), you're in luck. Since we released the piece, the group has ballooned by about 45K members and now unites about 220K of them. Naturally, such rapid growth along with activity from the old timers brought about plenty of new material.
So we at Bored Panda think it's about time we collect their latest posts and release Part 2!

RELATED:
Just like the first time, we contacted the person behind the group, comedian Trevor Lewis, to hear his latest thoughts on both Twitter and the Facebook community he created. And, just like the first time, he agreed!
First off, the proposed acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk and then his withdrawal from the deal. "I am conflicted about this," Trevor told Bored Panda. "On the one hand, I think it would be very funny and good if Musk was forced to follow through on such a bold claim."
"Proclaiming to the world that you intend to buy a company has huge implications on things like stock value, so he needs to be shown that his actions have consequences."

This person has a page on gogetfunding called Accidental Catdad, detailing how he fell in love with the kittens and decided to raise them (and their mom), it’s a heartwarming story. (And he got £7000-something out of it ;)
But having said that, Trevor enjoys Twitter more than any other social media app and would hate to see Elon damage it. "Musk has a long history of buying his way into companies and then running them badly," he pointed out.
"If you scroll through Twitter on a given day, it's not unlikely you will come across a video of a Tesla catching on fire. This is both a regular, literal occurrence and an apt metaphor for Musk's involvement in a company."

Yeah don't bother me about eating my ribs. I do whatever I want.
Musk's unpredictability on Twitter has been all over the headlines. Minutes after the company's shareholders voted on Tuesday to approve his $44 billion buyout deal, the Tesla chief took to the platform to revamp his user profile.
As the battle over the $44 billion bid intensifies, Musk has become 'Naughtius Maximus' on Twitter. The world's richest man did not only change his username but also uploaded a new profile picture and bio.
The SpaceX CEO's updated description on Twitter now reads: "Centurion in Jerusalem Garrison" and his display image is a picture from his childhood.
The 51-year-old decided to revamp his Twitter profile after the vote came as his legal team is in court, battling to get the businessman out of the deal.

My last cat Turkey was a stray, I named him Turkey because he adopted me just after Christmas - he barged in and ate all my leftover Turkey and wouldn’t leave even when I tried to chase him out. My autocorrect still capitalizes the T in Turkey because of him. Miss my Turkey boy, he was the best.

Cats can be the most lovely creatures ever. I hate the bad rap they get. Just like there are cats that are arseholes, there are dogs who are as well. My cat, who died at the age of 14 was amazing. Anytime someone was sick he'd go lie down with them, either on the bed or on the floor by the bed. When I had dengue fever in 2011, the first 5 days were awful, very high fever, weakness, and Johnny (my cat) just would stay either on the floor next to my head or laying by my feet on the bed. Every day during these worst days. Gosh, I miss him. 💕
But while the future of the platform remains hazy, Trevor's Facebook group isn't slowing down. And he puts plenty of effort into maintaining it as a pleasant place to visit.
"I am the only person managing the group," he said. "This is mainly because running a community on Facebook requires an intimate knowledge of its Community Standards system. Part of that is reading their descriptions on the company website. The other part, however, can only be learned through experience. In order for a group to survive, you have to know all the kinds of content that might jeopardize it."
"The other layer to this is that Facebook holds any action taken by an admin or moderator against the group itself," he continued. "So, if a moderator violates Facebook Community Standards, the platform doesn't just punish their account. It results in a strike against the group.
"Because I have been running large groups for several years now, I am able to navigate this system in a way that most people are not."
"Luckily, Facebook has started to provide group admins with automated features known as Admin Assist," Trevor added. "This allows us to set criteria to automatically prevent spam and conflict from occurring. It is not perfect, but it is extremely helpful. I would not be able to run the group on my own without it."

The hawk's expression is like "Uh, excuse me?" (Or better yet, exqueeze me?) Lol
Apart from the moderation, the comedian also curates the vast majority of content on 'The Best and Worst Of Twitter 2,' making it half an online magazine of sorts.
"I try to schedule a new post to go up every 40 minutes or so, even on weekends and holidays. There are rarely any breaks. A group needs consistent, high-quality content to remain visible within the algorithm. When selecting Tweets, I will use a combination of my personal taste as well as the numbers attached to it."

"I'm making myself look good in the headlines. Might as well diss Fido while I'm at it."
"I will particularly focus on the number of retweets, as this can usually translate to shares on the Facebook platform," Trevor explained. "This is the highest level of engagement a user can grant content, which means that if they are sharing something, they are also more likely to react and comment. All of this engagement results in the kinds of posts that go viral and help a group grow."
He noticed that most of the group's members are from the U.S., but there are tens of thousands that belong to countries from all around the world, including the Philippines, the U.K., South Africa, and Bangladesh.
"I'm proud that the content I curate is enjoyed by so many people. Even though the group name includes 'Best' and 'Worst,' I notice people generally respond more to content from the 'Best' category. They want to laugh and feel good while they scroll, and I'm happy to provide that," Trevor said.

He his só cute, however here's a warning for cat owners, do not out colars on them with those little bells i'v seen a few veterinarians warning about that, cats ears are more " powerfull " than a dog's ears, só having those little bells becomes stressfull for them not to mention that they also have Predator instincts, and they are stealth hunters and that Bell ruins that stealth instinct they have, fell free to check with your vetrinarians if you want to.

I'm gonna disagree here. Homeworks allow to see if, when trying independently, the subject is understood. But it shouldn't be too much homeworks but some is necessary.

Yeah, I respect your opinion but I had too many countless nights crying over my math homework because it was hard to understand and my notes taken in class didn't always help. Homework should be an easy refresher not a challenge. So yeah I agree with you there.

I never give homework. I don't believe in it. If, as a teacher, you can't get your curriculum done in class, change stuff. Of course, in some cases that may be harder (I have 20+ years experience and set my own curriculum as long as the students reach the correct finish level, but still. If the students work in class, they have no work to do at home.
The Mom 3 years ago
Yes. When my middle child was in 2nd grade his teacher was always giving homework. Fed up with it I sent her a note saying that I don't bring my work home and he will no longer be doing school work at home. She didn't like it but he continued making good grades.

Whoever this is, I love you. Please tell this to my school because when I say we get a ridiculous amount of homework I mean it. I'll get 14 page assignments due the next day just from my government class.

I guess there's a lot of people in school in this thread. Doing your homework lets you practice the content of the course. If I didn't have homework when doing my IT courses, I wouldn't have been able to pass my exams at the end of the year. I'm giving courses to adults in the IT domain, and I give them exercises to do after the course. It let's them practice stuff. It's important I think.

It depends on the homework- some homework is helpful, necessary even, but then there's just pointless busywork, which doesn't benefit anyone.

How many schools are 7-8 hours per day? Where I live, school is about 6 hours, and that includes breaks, so it's really just 5 hours of work. Sure, a long day for little kids, but not much work for older kids.
Aubrey Theo 3 years ago (edited)
As someone in an American highschool I get ready and go to and from school for about 8 hours, then have 1-2 hours of homework and sometimes have to study for even more. This leaves me with around 9-12 hours of work on average and i usually get around 6 hours of sleep

For the last 28 years, I've taught at a non-profit middle/high school for at-risk children and I can't count the number of times parents at parent-teacher conferences have shared that their whole family dynamics have changed for the better overnight just because the focus was on other school activities and family time instead of the endless homework conflict. Everyone was happier. I personally can't think of anything more important than growing up in a happy family. I've heard all the arguements in support of homework and they're valid. In my opinion, none of them outweigh allowing your children to have a well-balanced life in a happy home.

I live near an elementary school. It's heartbreaking watching 8 year olds carrying home bags of books as big as they are!

I'm currently enrolled in online college courses and each class is five weeks long with a new class starting each week. By the nature of this method I can stay caught up with the class by spending about 2 hours per day on it. I can honestly say that I'm not actually learning anything. All I'm doing is passing each weekly class simply because the "test" is built into the reading material so it is, effectively, 100% open book. If I actually had to do something to prove that I learned anything I'd be s**t out of luck. So, no. No homework is not a good idea. People, all of us, need some aspect of reinforcement of the subject matter at hand before we actually get to the point of knowing anything. A few hours of exposure on a given subject, before moving on to something else with an equally short exposure time, doesn't provide anyone with knowledge.

Depends a huge amount on the homework. I offered prep work - optional HW for students who felt weak but wanted to keep up. Practice HW - again optional for students who thought they had understood, but were not sure. Both were widely used by students some of the time - genuinely struggling students I preferred to give extra classes rather than extra HW as struggling at home I saw as counter productive. Expected HW was designed as review/ refresh to save test cramming and test essays, about 20mins of independent silent work which I could have done in class, but took time away from teaching. The teachers do not set the curriculum, we just have to find a way to get it all in. I don't see the point in HW for the sake of it, although good study habits can be helpful - choice of reading or maths puzzle will do. Busy work is lazy teaching, and I always suggest timing - ie, if you try this for 15 minutes and still feel stuck, just stop and come tell me.dont stress

I agree. When I was a kid we had a mountain of "homework". I spent most of my free time at the library, so I grew up with bad grades yet an IQ of 140. I learned more from Britannica than from Pub-Ed. I did eventually catch up in high school though. GPA 3.8.
Barbara R. Perry 3 years ago
THIS. If the school does not provide proper study periods (with assistance available) to complete 'homework' , A. K. A " preparation" in the U.K., then parents need to refuse. It's starting to happen more and more. Those children who are having to get on the bus at 6:15 am,& don't get back until 3:30-4:30pm? That's appalling. After basically working a full time job, and needing to get household chores done, expecting an hour or more extra schoolwork every single day is just plain cruel. Even an adult would find it very difficult to concentrate on the task! Tell the schools NO. I want my 9 year old to go play!

This might be super ignorant because I don't have kids. Isn't giving homework to high school and elementary school kids part of preparing them for college/university education? I can only imagine it would be quite a shock to graduate from high school and suddenly have to figure out how to manage your time and study independently if you hadn't learned to do so earlier in your education. I really am curious about how the no homework model works in that way. Maybe a teacher in this comment section can let me know. TIA :)
julie son 3 years ago (edited)
In my experience (I would like to underline "my" here) few kids bothered to even pay attention at school, never mind actually really working the whole time we were in school, so that's a bit of an idealistic scenario here. Also I remember how much easier it was for me to forget what I learned that day if I didn't do some homework latter. And just so I don't give the wrong idea here, I generally didn't, and, in retrospect, I wish I spent more of my time applying myself to homework. Once again, this is my highly subjective opinion, and I'm aware of that.

Homework allows students to reinforce new skills taught that day. Without immediately reinforcement, the retention rate goes way down, and they will likely need to be retaught.

I'm confused. Where is this that kids go to school for 8 hours? My sons (7) school is roughly 4-5 hours and I can't remember any of my own schools ever lasting more than around 6 hours. Maybe I remember incorrectly. I don't know.
