What is the age/social/job limit for having the right to use hashtags, dear Celticrose? I'm a thirty-year-old teacher, can I use them, or am I too old and/or dull?
I don't give a rat's rear if you use a hashtag. It does look stupid using what is specifically designed to be a social media function in the real world. And if you are so easily offended by a totally benign comment like that, I sure hope you only teach kindergarten because I imagine teenager would eat you alive.
"You're all wonderful and special. EVERYBODY gets an MVP trophy!"
"It's not the results that count, it's the sincerity of your effort."
(Hope that last one doesn't inspire someone to go to medical school.)
