WTF? The Little Book of Social Media Terminology Weiss Scott

Social media has reshaped our cultural landscape in more ways than we know, least of which is in the language we use to communicate with each other in both verbal and written form. Popular user-generated content sites like Urban Dictionary have sprung up to help catalog the ever-growing collection of terms of phrases that seem to spin off of each other and go in entirely new directions, and unite us around exactly what these words really mean and why and when they are to be used. As the parent of 14 and 11 year old daughters, Gen Z'ers who spend more than their fair share of time using their favorite social media apps, Scott Weiss decided it was time to call out some of the more popular terms and phrases he often hears his daughters using in book format, something parents like him could reference at a moment's notice, and thus, this pocketbook took form."WTF? The Little Handbook of Social Media Terminology" is the perfect gift for the person in your life that just doesn't get it: the mother or father that still thinks Facebook is cool, the grandparent who can't figure out how to turn their phone on and off, or the friend who needs to be "shook" a little bit.
