Can someone explain social media “Stories” to me without linking to anything?

I thought it was when the police visit your house to return your lost kitten and 10 minutes later it's all over Facebook there's been a police raid on your home and you've been arrested for selling children to brothels. 15 minutes later your dealing with a lynch mob armed with burning torches.

Security cameras save lives.

[OddBeMe]

Yeah I should have checked my sources…sorry about that.

It is a different way to show others how you live your life at the fullest, it doesn't matter whether it is real or not, to boost your ego.

[OddBeMe]

Yeah but…what is it? A group of pics on IG?

[BlissfullyCurSed]

Not only pics... you can also share videos in your story.

[ProbablyClueless]

Think of stories as a fast, non permanent, thought blurb. As opposed to a more permanent status update.

[OddBeMe]

So it’s a post that disappears?

[ProbablyClueless]

Yes. Usually after 24 hours.

this might be the only question i like of yours

[dustybiker2]

Personal stroking.

[dustybiker2]

No. Change that to self-stroking. Forget to dumb myself down here sometimes.

[OddBeMe]

I like personal stroking. Sounds like personal care
