Snapchat Maps Were CRAZY
A new episode of KFC Radio today, and we had no choice but to touch on the drama that occurred on The Yak last Friday during Brandon Walker’s funeral. I thought the frying of Nicky Smokes was going to be done once last week wrapped up, but then Jackie came in guns blazing this week throwing ricochet shot after ricochet shot at him. City boys might need a full timeout to regroup.
The BIGGEST takeaway though, was how crazy it is now that every girl is comfortable with their friends tracking them 24/7. On the weekends, sure, I get it. But on a random weekday when you’re just going from your 9-5, then a pilates class, then home? That’s a 1984 style world (sick reference btw) that I personally don’t want to live in.
I think that what all this location sharing hoopla comes back to is the release of snap maps. I feel like we didn’t talk about this nearly enough when it came out, or maybe we did and I was just a 13 year old whippersnapper that wasn’t so plugged in at the time, but Snapchat allowed a bunch of pre-pubescent kids to know where their peers were at all times and we never really said much about it.
Guess what? Those pre-pubescent kids are now full on adults living full on adult lives in big cities and just view it as second nature to know where all of their friends are at all times. It’s no good! Weekends only or else we run into avoidable problems of people finding out things that they never would have otherwise.
P.S. If you willingly have your Snapchat maps on as visible to everyone instead of being on ghost mode please donate your brain to science because you’re a different type of cat that might be studied for the good of humanity.
