Life Hack? Why I Deleted Social Media Apps to Spend Twice as Much Time on Social Media Websites

Hey, man, you look a little down. Everything ok? Oh yikes, sorry to hear about your mom and that bus. Have you tried spending less time on social media? I’ve been doing this social media cleanse my life coach recommended and it’s worked wonders for me. Haven’t been on an app in 3 weeks 2 days and 18 hours. Somewhere around there. You kind of forget about it once you’re off the socials.

Try it! You’ll feel so much better. Just don’t forget to make a long post about how you’re deleting the app to focus on YOU and definitely not going to just access social media via the websites which is the same as using the app but lacks some of the features that make scrolling so easy so you actually spend more time using it. The best part is you can’t really share anything properly, so nobody knows you are seeing their posts.

I would just rather talk to people in real life, ya know? Be present! My coaching group has this really cool forum that helps keep you accountable. Now that I’m Media-Free I actually SPEAK to other human beings when I’m out in public. Just the other day I was at Whole Foods telling someone about going Media — wait, are you crying? What’s this about a wake? Is that a Tik Tok trend? I told you, I don’t pay attention to that stuff anymore, man. It rots your brain, clearly you need to try something new.

Anyway, as I was saying, real life. That’s what is important. When you delete social media apps you can claim you don’t even use social media, even though you still very much do. You can spend twice as much time on your phone while maintaining the superiority of someone who doesn’t own a TV but religiously streams every episode of ‘Floribama Shore” on their laptop. You can be totally uncontaminated by propaganda, fake news and targeted advertisements designed to – A GoFundMe? This is what I’m talking about, dude! You need to get OFF-LINE. Make honest connections like the one we are having right now.

Hey man, I gotta run but it’s been really great catching up! Anytime you want to hang out in real life I’m all for it. Tell your Mom I said hello!
