"We broke up. I wanted a proprietary platform - she wanted open source."

Woman on the phone.

"I had a great weekend... My Grandpa talked about the war again and my Dad about his most daring facebook comments!"

"Nd how did tht mke u feel?"

"Sorry? I wasn't listening."

"Honey, come quick! This guy in the comments section just solved the Middle East crisis."

Communication

'It's true -- we DO communicate better in a chat room.'

'I can watch T.V. shows on the computer, so who needs a TV?'

"I know you're wrong, I just can't get the computer to say it yet."

"I can tell you about this article or you can just read the comments online."

"Not now, honey. Daddy's arguing with strangers about the sexual orientation of puppets."

"My chat bot doesn't understand me."

"I just wish I hadn't spent most of my life reading the comments below online news articles"

"Uncommunicative? Have you tried texting him?"

'Don't internalise that simmering rage -- get it out of your system on website comments sections.'

"Lets take this conversation off line..."

'Excuse me, could everyone be quiet, I'm trying to talk on my cellphone.'

"Yeah yeah, nice, but how many online followers do you have?"

"The hive mind has reached a consensus about 'Wolverine'."

Humpty Dumpty sat on a paywall.
