I didn’t know anyone actually called it X.

u/ApplicationRoyal865 3d ago

I call it 10 just to fuck with people

u/Shaking-Cliches 3d ago

This is very on brand for this sub and show.

u/DemandezLesOiseaux 3d ago

This I can get behind. I remember when Mac OS X came out and we had to correct everyone that it was 10.

u/durrellb 3d ago

Oh, it took me ages to learn/remember that it was a version number and not just a brand.

I thought it was OSX, like Windows. I've only just got around to actually calling it MacOS.

u/TheeArgonaut 2d ago

I’ve heard it both ways

1

u/mucinexmonster 2d ago

It'll always be "OS X" to me.

2

u/Boolean_Null 2d ago

It was 10 at the time then once I switched to 11, 10 became my X

u/DemandezLesOiseaux 2d ago

I worked in retail at the time so I didn’t have a choice.

u/HandyXAndy 3d ago

I think the full name that people call it in all news articles is "X (formerly Twitter)." Nobody calls it just X, and they're probably not allowed to call it Twitter anymore

u/ActualAgency5593 2d ago

I have a friend that used to text about it that way and it cracked me up every time bc it reminded me of a news article.

u/originalslicey 2d ago

When someone calls it X, I just assume they’re MAGA.

u/ActualAgency5593 2d ago

More than fair.

u/sei556 2d ago

My favorite one I've heard so far has been "The platform currently known as Twitter"

2

u/ActualAgency5593 2d ago

That’s pretty funny

u/bumblebragg 13h ago

I love how it is two years later, and everyone still just says Twitter. And every news article still says X, formerly Twitter, because no one calls it X.

“Good because I thought it was gonna be Q Anon.”

u/astari0ns 3d ago

Nah the Rookie.

u/AquaAdminSpyke 3d ago

that seems like an entirely likely event if Psych had made it to the renaming of Twitter.

u/queenofcaffeine76 lemonalemonalemonalime 3d ago

I mean there's still potential movie #4

u/KiloJools 3d ago

The "Do you have the Peacock?" exchange from This is Gus still tickles me.

u/Nowaaaa_bb Burton Guster, you are not gonna cry in this limo 2d ago

Happy cake dayyy!! 🍰🥳❤️

u/KiloJools 1d ago

Oh wow, thank you, I didn't even notice 🥰

u/Agile-Emphasis-8987 3d ago

I could definitely see him calling it Xitter, with an emphasis on the Xi

59

u/blorplebees 3d ago

Hmm, then Lassiter could ask, "Is that like Myspace?" Everyone would ridicule him, so he'd go find Twitter and get radicalized by some flat-earther style nonsense.

13

u/sillyshit3000 3d ago

My cousin is a hard-core flat earther😭

u/blorplebees 3d ago

Oh man, sorry to hit too close to home! :D

“Gus, I’ve put all our money in QuietQuitter.com. It’s an online place for people who’ve give up but would also like it shushed while they do so.”

u/sweetnsassy924 <Gus's Nickname Here> 3d ago

u/Captain_Eaglefort 3d ago

No. Shawn would still be talking about MySpace.

u/SegaStan 2d ago

It's not twitter anymore Shawn, it's X, the everything app
