Your analysis that it is a "gimmick", "bullshit", and "hyped up" is over-simplified and, I think, wrong. There's no need to swear or be mean about this. Some people, myself included (I hate hate hate hate the snapchat app, I'm not able to use it and I can't stand the idea of it) think that Snap does understand product and its market, and has incredible visions for the future with an ability to execute. I think that Snap will be a huge success for a long time to come.

Naysaying Snap is fine, but not if your argument is "bullshit hype".




His argument was cost and lack of utility...


Bullshit hype IS an argument in and of itself and if we can't speak plainly how can we speak honestly?
