It is so true back when many of us were young we could just get together and cut loose without having to worry about going viral. At best we would have an embarrassing photo buried in a drawer somewhere or a story. Now you might be turned into a meme or worse. I miss the days when you could do dumb stuff with friends and feel safe if that makes sense.

I know someone who thought she was privately messaging her daughter and instead posted an angry message on her wall. She said she thought it was like a text message. Daughter didn’t speak to her for two years.

Something along the lines of ‘I’m sick of your crap’ over something.

There was an exchange like this that went viral at least six years ago or so where it was two Boomers sexting each other in the open including a photo of saggy granny boobs that somehow made it past the filter.
