# X Posts December 2017

In late December 2017 I posted a rapid series of X updates (04‑12‑2017 04:22 UTC to 31‑12‑2017 10:29 UTC) that mixed crypto commentary, Indian political satire, meme‑culture jokes and community interaction. The tone was informal, profanity‑laden and meme‑heavy, using hashtags, user mentions, quoted retweets and short t.co URLs.

- **Crypto sentiment**: frequent mentions of $XRP, $btc, $alts, $ERC, $POT, $TRIG and generic $crypto; repeated riffs on FOMO, shilling and “HODL”.

The posts used caps lock and profanity to convey strong emotion and to boost virality, while hashtags like #justsaying, #HODL, #BJP, #Bhakts, #Potcoin and #pumping helped surface the content in relevant streams.

Open questions that emerged from this period include the actual market movements of $TRIG and $POT in January 2018, the influence of the linked articles, and the measurable impact of profanity‑laden meme language on engagement metrics.

- **Political satire (India)**: mockery of BJP, Modi, RSS and the electoral process, often via cartoons or captioned images.
- **Meme & pop‑culture**: “Lambo”, “Sheep”, “Ass on fire”, “Daru hi Vikas hai”, references to *Rick and Morty* and service‑quality jokes.
- **Community interaction**: quoted retweets that preserve original phrasing, user mentions to create dialogue, and 41 distinct short URLs linking to media.
- **Meta‑commentary**: remarks on platform behavior (e.g., “CBOE needs a trollbox”) and self‑referential shill jokes.
