Well, I know who Greg O’Connor is. But who’s Chloe Swarbrick? And hasn’t she got something important to be doing?
God isn’t Chloe so cool, she can use twitter and burn all people over 30! In case she hasn’t noticed all the people who did all the heavy lifting on the social media she has used most of her life are closer to Greg’s age than hers.
