Discord Distraction (Or Maybe Just Dazed and Confused Dumbassery)
I wouldn't blame you if you stopped right here. It's nothing but babble from here on out.
Da heck is this Discord thingy? Maybe I'll give it a try.
It looks like I got a message. Yay me.
So how do I find my message?
There ya go. Found it. This is easy. Uh, how do I message others?
Rats! I think I just super-reacted to… I have no idea.
Aannnd, now I’m lost again.
Can I get some friends on here? I’m lonely and clearly need help. Woe is me.
This is friggin’ stupid!
I think I’m starting to figure it out, finally.
Oh look! Jays got a homerun. Yaaay. Go Jays!
Now where was I? Who the hell is Wumpus?

I am still very spotty when it comes to engaging on Discord. Have you got to grips with it yet 😁
What is the name of Vocal's cafe? I am lost in Discord and discontent, lol
With a name like "Discord" what can we expect?!
LOL I love this. So accurate! The "this is stupid!" part had me laughing 😅 Love your work, as always, my friend!
Discord is an enigma. Had it once, tried to delete. Good luck with that. Will give it a go anyway, soon. U so funny C.
Hahaha! Love it. I signed up for Discord....still no clue what it is, what it's for or what to do with it :)
Ha ha, great take on working with Discord.
Another hit straight out the park. This was funny and relatable! Loved it!
Love it, Cathy! Discord can be very challenging to figure out, especially if you are not used to the kind of chatting software we had in the early days of social media. With that said, Discord used to be easier to use.
SO very relatable.
😆 I gave up after I got registered for an account and the invite to the relevant Vocal.... chat?? Is it called a chat?? OMG, I really feel out of my depth here! So, you are not alone Cathy!
Whoaaa, you're wayyyy ahead of me! I had no idea we can get messages and can super react to stuff. Lol. I just created an account and put my pic. I saw people we know from Vocal talking about stuff. And it was all so messy to see. So I closed the app 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I loved how you wrote a poem about it!
LOL, great!!! Luv your humor. I haven't decided on Discord yet myself.
Got a good laugh out of this one, Cathy!
Haha so good Cathy
Omg, I am so glad to have read this Super Humorous chunk 😊💖 Cathy You are Brilliant❗
I am on too, but am pretty tech illiterate...look me up :)
Ah, you bring joy to my day! Love your sarcasm and not giving a shit...speaks to me, lol :) Awesome work!!!
Hahaha, well done! I'm still deciding wether I'll join or not, but if I do, I'll look you up! x
lol - I joined discord last night and omg felt the same way 😆 Well said 👏 ❤️
Home run!!! Loving it!!!💖💖💕
Enjoyed reading your take on the challenge. It really is entertaining watching the way your writing mind works.
I'll just dip my toes in Discord, a fun piece and will probably be a Top Story as it's about Vocal's new favourite toy
LOL. I’m not saying it sounds familiar, but I can’t say it doesn’t either. Nice work!
Haha, funny! I've noticed that screen handles can be different from account names, so add that to the confusion, lol
