People around me, such as at school, love to refer to pound sign\number sign as "hashtag" because it's called that on Twitter. It annoys the fuck out of me. And unfortunately, Twitter is now more popular than Facebook so I hear more often. ![]() Who else here is annoyed by the accursed "hashtag"? ____________________ Sunshine Realm Welcome to Aqmlm's, the only board with Al-Aq'mlmistrators! |

I hate when every word becomes a hashtag.
I also call the "#" symbol just "hash" and nothing more. A pound sign for me is £. The world could always use more heroes! |

Telephones call it a pound sign for some reason. Same with using "star" for "asterisk".
I think it was originally called a "hash" on Twitter but "tagging posts" or something turned it into the hashtag. ____________________ Sunshine Realm Welcome to Aqmlm's, the only board with Al-Aq'mlmistrators! |

Posted by TarynLooks more to me like you're talking about Sofi. Don't think I don't remember seeing all those food pictures she posted on Jul. Honestly not much of it looked very tasty, I have to admit.. ![]() |

Posted by TarynWell as soon as I read that, it's the first thing that came to my head. I don't like it either really. Keep your food to yourself, I don't want to see what you ate. ![]() |

♥6870 ✿4939 ★90 Posted by Taryn I haven't done it in awhile, but I think when I did I was generally trying to show off something I cooked and though I did a good job at ![]() Restaurants are a different story, except if there's something significantly noteworthy about the meal that's worth posting. |

Posted by NicoleYeah. Home cooked moments of pride are good.Posted by Taryn For a restaurant thing. I might post "omfg, that drink is huge!" type pics at most.. or if it was something special. Well, getting a proposal with a ring presented with the meal might be cute enough to post.. right? The world could always use more heroes! |

I still wonder why people actually say for anything. Like if you say, "Let's have a pie contest", people wil say "hashtag pie contest". Oh my God! Real life ain't Twitter. ![]() ____________________ Sunshine Realm Welcome to Aqmlm's, the only board with Al-Aq'mlmistrators! |
