In real life, people make faces. :) The beauty of snapchat - so much can be conveyed merely through expressions.

Do you actually like SnapChat that much?:D Its so restricting, I can't express myself like I want to in like 3 words and a farm animal emoji.

Maybe that's the problem. Maybe it's telling me something. Hm.

I love snapchat. Sometimes it isn't the appropriate medium but for casual conversation/back-and-forth/"hey what are you up to?" It's great. I value its impermanence, which minimizes perfectionism and allows one to send silly/ugly pictures that one wouldn't necessarily want permanently on a network like, say, Facebook.

TIL SnapChat is the ultimate ploy at a subconscious propagation of Buddhism in the most polar culture of young America. Woa.
