How to write viral tweets with the man who beat the X algorithm

All you have to do is refuse video games until about the age of 16. Then your kids will be so far behind their friends it won't be fun for them. They'll give up and focus on real life. Virtually no chance they'll grow old to spend 20 hours a week on a computer casting spells. It triggers all the people who sit around and play video games as a hobby because it's true that...

How to write viral tweets with the man who beat the X algorithm

Video games, while they do add a lot of critical thinking skills and maybe people argue hand-eye coordination, I disagree with that. But they argue the benefits of it. I don't think they're very beneficial. So I took that hard line and it frustrated and made angry a lot of gamers.

How to write viral tweets with the man who beat the X algorithm

I get a lot of messages. I get a lot of messages from people who support me and follow me and want to use my businesses. And the first thing a lot of them say to me is, Nick, I love your stuff and I don't agree with all of it. Right. I spark good conversations. I make smart people think critically about things. And obviously, what I think doesn't apply to everybody.

How to write viral tweets with the man who beat the X algorithm

Yeah, I think I have this one tweet about a white Escalade. Like if you want to... If you can get really specific and it adds just a layer of humor, like 20 hours a week on a computer casting spells just adds a layer of humor to the thought of somebody playing World of Warcraft.

It's that picture of that guy on South Park who's got his hand up on the desk and he's really obese and he's eating chips while he's beating Cartman and all the friends at war. World of Warcraft, right? That's what you picture when you think of 20 hours a week casting spells. So I like to add a little bit of complexity. I have this one tweet about salespeople and driving a white Escalade.

How to write viral tweets with the man who beat the X algorithm

I love to hire salespeople who are paycheck to paycheck, but drive $120,000 white Escalade. Because they're super motivated to sell and they are highly determined to make it rain and they'll work super hard because they're cash strapped. And it's just funny because we all know a lot of salespeople like that.
