we were having a conversation where snapchat came up and she very casually goes out of her way to explain what snapchat is to me as if i obviously would not know how it worked

i'm only 33...

To be fair, I'm 33 and I don't know how it works since I never bothered to try it.

I'm also 33 and would need to be explained by a younger person.

Looks like you're the odd one out here.

Rikku, how does it make you feel that the new girl thinks you're old?

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

I downloaded snap chat for roughly 2 weeks a few years ago to talk to someone I met on a dating app after I got divorced.

Ended up not going anywhere and I deleted the app

This is interesting. I'm 32 and I don't really consider myself up on the times all that much but I definitely knew that snapchat has become a favored medium by younger people. Some even prefer it to texting in some cases.

Like I've become friends with a couple coworkers 10 years younger than me and our main mode of contact outside work is snapchat lol. Even my youngest brother (by 7 years) will mostly contact my other brother and I via snapchat a lot.

I used Snapchat a lot in high school a decade ago. It kind of died out for awhile but now I teach high school and it's the second most popular social media for my students, behind Tik Tok, so it made a comeback at some point.

I'm 32 now as well but this scenario happened to me years ago. After getting rid of facebook some people tried to get me into snapchat to no avail. Social media just ain't for me.

I'm 33 and just don't understand how people my age can have lived a life like this. it's alien to me.

Never cared to use Snapchat but I have a basic idea of how it works, that's it. I don't understand the point of it or the need for it, however.

The only social media I actively use is Facebook because of groups. If it weren't for that, I wouldn't use any of it except to lurk.

I've never used any social media, unless discord counts, and I have no intention of starting. There's an argument that I need facebook explained to me, because I just don't see the point of any of it.

32 and I use it because I have a group of friends that use it.

Honestly that goes for all the different social media out there, I have different groups of friends/family that only use certain ones so I have everything.

I'm 30 and used Snapchat extensively with an ex. Use it relatively often now.

It's just texting with using an image every text. Some people like to look at the person they're texting with.
