The Trojans, Twitter, And Clemson
Donny Knight Photography

Twitter has always been the place where we beat out the 140 characters to be witty. 90% of the time it works, other times its about as good at Clemson was during the #TROYvCLEM game- awful and in need of help.

It's a well known fact that the Trojan community is still pretty salty about the September 10, 2016 game versus the Clemson Tigers. You didn't have to be watching the game to know what was happening. I was on my way to Atlanta for a Braves baseball game with my sorority sisters, and Twitter was blowing up with updates on the game. It's not often a tiny Sunbelt Conference school holds their own playing the #2 SEC team in the nation. If I wasn't getting updates via the Twitter-sphere, I found loads of updates on Facebook between my Trojan friends and the live updates Facebook gave me at the top of my newsfeed.

Troy was trending on social media, and was even the top Twitter trend the day of the game. Whether it was just 'Troy,' #OneTroy, or #TROYvCLEM, the fans were responding. I combed through these feeds and picked out nine of my personal favorite salty tweets. Let it be known that the Troy Trojans are not to be messed with- just ask Clemson and their favorite ACC Refs.

1.

It's a fun twist to the Fight Song, don't ya think?

2.

Kermit has something to say about the game too, but that's none of my business.

3.

I guess all they could see was the orange and purple.

4.


You can't screenshot gifs, and I wanted to keep the authenticity of the tweet. If Kermit hadn't said it all, Hagrid did.

5.


Kudos to Coach Brown for Rebuilding the Wall and also remaining as professional as he did during the game. He's certainly a coach Troy will remember. Coach Brown led the Trojans to a victory in my books.

6.

Same girl, same.

7.

It'd honestly be better than any of the other option we have. NEAL BROWN 2016 YA'LL.

8.

I want to make this a poster and put it on my wall to get me through the rest of the school year. #inspiration

9.

I think we all know to settle this dispute we just need a rematch, but on Trojan turf this time. Are you up for the challenge Clemson?

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
