“Instagram is Twitter for people who can’t read”

“Instagram is Twitter for people who can’t read” is a saying that has been printed on many images. “Instagram is twitter for people who can’t read” was posted on Twitter on February 1, 2012.
   
“Twitter is stupid, and Instagram is Twitter for people who can’t read” is a saying from the New York City-themed television sitcom 2 Broke Girls, on the episode “And the Pearl Necklace” that aired on October 1, 2012.  The saying was posted on Twitter on September 27, 2012, probably from a commercial advertising the episode.

And the Pearl Necklace [2.02]
Caroline: Max, have you seen my phone? I wanna take a picture of this bad tip and put it on Instagram. Getting loose change used to be so depressing, but now I can share it with strangers.
Max: Let me sum it up: Twitter is stupid, and Instagram is Twitter for people who can’t read.
