If you have to lie (or “stretch the truth” as some might say) about your daily activities on Twitter, chances are this video will give you the reality check you need to talk to your friends again.

Talking, in case you forgot, is an ancient form of communication that requires opening your mouth while making sounds.

Although I fess up to owning a Twitter account purely for experimental reasons, I would never actually use it the way it is portrayed in this video. We’ve all stretched the truth about something to a close friend- now Twitter allows you to do that to an entire audience.

The real genius of this video shows up at the end where a guy finally offers everyone who reads his tweets to hang out in person. Unfortunately, none of them seem to want to take him up on his offer. It’s sad but true; most of the “friends” that talk to you online aren’t usually the ones you hang with.
