Dear Vine,

Dear Vine,

We first met when I was in middle school. You were love at first sight, but a true player from the beginning because everyone loved you too. I was simply browsing the internet as I stumbled upon your app. I was instantly inspired by the humor and creativity that you showed. We spent hours together, having a good laugh and being entertained by endless videos. You and I even spent Christmas together, as you wished me a “Merry Chrysler”. Although you are now dead, I will mourn your loss forever. Your death in 2017 was a heartbreaking day because we’ve spent countless years together and have made many memories. You helped me meet other people and connect to other friends through our shared interest in you. Vine, you will forever be in my memories and have a special place in all of our hearts. I could always count on you to be there when I was down, so it was as if I had a bad break up when you met your demise. I hear you might be resurrected from the dead someday, and if that happens, I will be waiting for you always on the other side. R.I.P my friend, gone but never forgotten.

  1. I am sympathetic to your plight. I had similar feelings about Vine and this resonates with me. #RIPVine #gonebutneverforgotten

  2. This was funny and yet, true. I also loved watching vine all the time. I think it was a horrible choice shutting down the app when it was their most famous one. Like you said, “I was instantly inspired by the humor and creativity that you showed,” which touched many people all around the world. Hopefully we can get something like vine again, but I sadly doubt it.

  3. I never read such emotion about an app. This was funny and sincere at the same time. Think of how many different apps you will love through your life!!!
    Good writing…great tone for the effect
