Understanding hashtags #1

Are you on Instagram or Twitter yet? Course you are. You're not a thumbless freak who actually achieves things, you're the kind of modern go-getter that all-you-can eats the 'feeds' on the mini-computer device in their right palm, every ten minutes. Am I right?

So, like me, you've seen the 'clever' hashtags folks put on their posts to align themselves with certain groups or movements or simply to get noticed. They confused me at first. I didn't get the point. Then I grasped the idea, but didn't get the meanings, but now I'm fully enlightened and I'm here to help the tech-knuckle-draggers out there to decipher. I don't refer to you of course, Jeez, you're at the cutting edge, like us, with the wonderful world of blogs. Here goes for those other suckers...

#Builtnotbought
What it's supposed to mean: I’m an individual because I ride a custom bike. I’m not a sheep, like those who are happy to ride a perfectly good motorcycle left the way manufacturer intended.
Actually translates to: I stripped all the paint off my petrol tank, removed the airbox, fitted a K and N filter and bolted on some clubman bars. Now my bike doesn’t run properly. Any ideas what I did wrong?
