What are Twitter users doing with their 280-character tweets?

We get it: 280 characters are a lot. Some would argue too many.

And while Twitter argues that more room to tweet is beneficial for English speakers, users can’t seem to find ways to use all 280 characters.

After all, the above two paragraphs only feature 206 characters.

If Twitter chose you as one of its guinea pigs, but you have no idea what to do with all the newly bestowed power, look no further than these users and brands for inspiration.

They somehow found a solution to the existential crisis that is the longer tweet length, and have overcome. Well, even if that solution for most involves screaming into their tweet boxes.

If you’re managing a brand account, you could try something like this?

If your product can’t quite pull off sexual innuendo, what about this?

If neither of the above works, just CTRL-C CTRL V your product name into a tweet and smash that post button.

The great news is, that even with double the characters, you can still be as snarky as ever.

If you own an American Football team, you could creepily shout out a player’s name (in this case, Fitz) about 18 times.

Or be like the Chicago Bears and honk your own horn.

Not a fan of American Football? Well then, you can now pay unabbreviated respect to the Mother of Dragons.

Or tweet about the dire state the real world is in.

Speaking of the dire state of the world, you can now put those longer #WednesdayWisdom quotes to good use.

Or just leave your followers feeling empty and alone.

But regardless of how many characters users have, gentle trolling will always seemingly be an option.

Yeah, we weren’t sure when this tweet was going to end either.

If you think you can do better with 280 characters, here’s how you can unlock the power on Twitter right now.
