Twitter users "aint afraid to say" what's on their minds (#iaintafraidtosay) on the morning of December 10.

The new trending phrase is being used to announce to the world what users think about life, love, religion or politics. The tweets are ranging from thoughts on taboo subjects to simple proclamations of love for their friends and family.

"#iaintafraidtosay 'I Love You" to the ones I love. Keep saying it, you never know what tomorrow brings," and "#iaintafraidtosay that I'm not perfect," said two users.

The meme "#nowplaying" is being used to broadcast the song to which a user is currently listening.

The musical selection is eclectic to say the least: "Elton John - 'Moon River,'" "'Decoy' (live) - Paramore" and "'Ain't Talkin' Bout Love' - Van Halen" were just a few of the songs playing this morning.

Twitter users are also putting their comic side to use as they take guesses at "Celebrity Passwords" (#CelebrityPasswords).

"#celebritypasswords Paris Hilton: What's a password?" and "#celebritypasswords Barack Obama: yeswecan" were a few of the many suggestions.
