Knight Like – Dog Videos

By Tyra Gwalthney

When I get home from school, all I want to do is sit down and relax for a little while. The easiest and most entertaining way to do that is to watch dog videos. Yes, people constantly talk about cat videos, but the dog videos take the cake. Puppies are extremely goofy and cute, and they do anything they want without fear of embarrassment, which can lead to some pretty funny videos. Their facial expressions when they do something bad, their unrelenting joy at being given food, and even their barks and howls can always make my day much brighter.

 

Knight Dislike – Twitter “Likes”

By Natalie Wright

“If this gets 10 favorites I will file a complaint” is what I wish I could say due to the recent Twitter update that got rid of the favorites button and replaced it with a like button. The Twitter game has officially changed, and now Twitter users across the globe are grieving over the loss of the favorites. Although you can completely pretend that the like button is the same as the favorite button, it’s not. People favorited other people’s tweets to show that they agreed, laughed, or related to it. People also used the favorites option to signify that you thought it was dumb or to save the tweet to look at later. Now if you click the like button, you feel that you literally have to “like” the tweet. Twitter users definitely have a love/hate relationship for the like button. Rest in peace Twitter favorites, you will be missed.
