"Hello" became a greeting because of the telephone... 🤯🤯🤯 Who knew?! @GretchenAMcC did! Thanks for the history lesson. One of many. #BecauseInternet
As a copywriter with cultural studies background, I had a blast reading #BecauseInternet by @GretchenAMcC.
Interesting accurate translation moment (from Italian) #becauseInternet
This also arrived and I can only read a few pages at a time because every paragraph is causing a nerdgasm of such epic proportions that I need to recover in a darkened room for a bit. #BecauseInternet
"The alchemy of two people tossing thoughts back and forth in perfect balance" is a gorgeous sentence.
Re-reading #BecauseInternet again because it's brilliant.
(Tho as someone who prefers to writing to talking, I disagree with @GretchenAMcC's particular take on writing fear :)
This book answered so many of my questions about how the internet has changed our communication patterns & norms, especially emoji & memes. And it’s hilarious! I highly recommend. @GretchenAMcC #BecauseInternet
@WIRED @GretchenAMcC I'm embarrassed it took so long, but I *finally* experimented with alternating SpongeBob case for sarcasm, thanks to #BecauseInternet; it felt sooooo good.
@zavisnoslozena Haha da jelda, to se i meni činilo, da je akronim ekskluzivno ironičan, a puna fraza ne uvijek. Tu bi sad bilo appropriate @ Gretchen McCulloch da smo ovo na engleskom iskunicirali haha #becauseinternet
Happy #InternationalLiteracyDay 🔤

@Donal_OKeeffe One would have thought that 1/294 was a bit of a clue. #BecauseInternet
My first thing for @harpy_mag is about how home became work became the gym/pub/younameit during lockdown.
And about the third place. A concept I didn't know till I stumbled across it in #BecauseInternet.
Then everything made forehead-smacking sense.

Say it again, @GretchenAMcC: “disdain for a bit of language is no more relevant to linguistics than a personal distaste for broccoli is relevant to food science.” Let your peeves go! It’ll be fun. 😃 #becauseinternet
Reading #BecauseInternet and I can't tell if this is an intentional bit of humor or an e x t r e m e l y illustrative error. @GretchenAMcC
Things I have to do today: work.
Things I want to do today: keep reading #BecauseInternet by @GretchenAMcC. I'm in the emoji chapter! It's fuckin great!
Has the Internet helped or harmed #English? #Linguist @GretchenAMcC of @lingthusiasm reasons it allows "users to write in the same way they talk, thereby expressing themselves more fully and more creatively." @arstechnica reviews her book #BecauseInternet. https://t.co/GPV4wLA935
Started reading #BecauseInternet by @GretchenAMcC today! A birthday gift from Perry that's been on my wishlist for nearly a year. I'm like 36 pages in and captivated! 😍
idk why the idea of an AI system swearing at me has the same appeal as wanting to eat clicky clacky math rocks-- forbidden and a bad time guaranteed but I crave this anyway. #becauseinternet
