Good lord, why would you want to?

I actually have a snapchat account that I set up to see what was going on at the college near me (public curated "college" story that was being locally advertised for a while), and I have been known to poke around on Minecraft servers on slow evenings when I don't want to think.

That said, the very thought of interacting with any teens actively using snapchat gives me the heebie jeebies in a huge and ugly way. It'd be hard to overstate my desire to not interact with anyone that age on snapchat or really anything else that involves video or photos.

Even without the concerns about avoiding anything that can be even perceived as skeevy, I have absolutely nothing except some demographic elements (country, race, have been known to play stupid video games) in common with snapchatters, and aside from adding in the family element it sounds like neither does the writer. So, unless I'm trying to market to them (which has its own skeeviness factor) it's like wrestling a greased pig - lots of annoyance and nobody's having any fun there.
