Why on earth would something so silly piss you off?

X is a stupid name. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes, I suppose.

I think Musk is a modern day genius and he'll go down in history with the great barons of industry and invention.
I also love that he bought and gutted twitter.
But renaming it was stupid.

You read a story on the internet and the person writing the story says “So and so post this on X formally known as twitter “
What kind of person don’t know by now X is formally twitter ?
It’s been 2 or 3 years .
I can understand the first 3 or 4 months .
Can we drop the formally part and just say X?
The word is "formerly", not "formally".

I just avoid anything associated with it.

Kind of like saying The Artist Formerly Known As Prince.
I think some people shortened it to TAFKAP and said it as a word.
And became this logo:
