More TwittySh*t ~ some of it fascinates me
Twitter Poop
Somebody please tell me why a few otherwise intelligent people tweet every time they fart?

Heh heh

Ah well. *sigh* *shakes head* I still love 'em for who they are.
But yikes, why do they do that? Overandoverandoveragain down my page.

Don't get me wrong, I would never wish to lose them as flisters ~
~ I mean friends ~
~ oh, sorry, I mean "following/followers" LOL

Ah hell, just count this as another crabbyrant.

Even Eddie Izzard.
He jogs around London and keeps tweeting his present location.
Guh?
Is he being snarky or ironic, or does he seriously think people appreciate this?
Hahahaaa I love it.

The lame-leaning proclivities of cool people do amuse me so. :)

I won't lie, I've defriended people who stopped posting LJ-entries and just sent their tweets to their LJ. So very rude and annoying. If I wanted to follow your tweets, I'd get a twitter or set up a feed to read them. It makes some sense for celebrities since they tend to have "fan followings," but there's no reason my friend needs to tweet me she just "totally saw a hot guy buying a bagel at Starbucks!!" or whatever. Sigh.

I sooo agree with that!

When I'm in a weird mood (which happens quite often, hahaa) I have fun playing around with, surfing through and drilling down "followers of followers" etc. just to see what I can find, to snarf at the amazingly trite and worthless "news" people think is important, like "I'm going into Macy's now, I totally need those new shoes" or "I just heard a bird burp!"

Fine if they leave it all on the site where it belongs. Twitter.

The line is drawn when they think their LJ is just a tweets-repository.
Hey, I can very quickly and without another thought pop a flister into an alternate flist (I've got several of them, all categorized) so they don't come up on my friends page unless I deliberately pull up the list they're on.

I really don't want to defriend them on their end because I assume everyone who friends me is most likely an admirer of Brian. I don't want them to miss out on any Brian news I may have flocked. However, that doesn't mean I am obliged to see THEIR stuff, right? ;)

Oh, and Stephen Colbert's occasional little tweets are very entertaining.
EXAMPLE:

Stephen_StephenAtHome what exactly did paul krugman's ancestors do? sell krug?

Errmmm ~~ Well, whether you think it's entertaining, I guess, depends upon how obtuse your sense of humor is!

Is this one any better:

Stephen _StephenAtHome the vlasic pickle stork only makes me think of one thing: pickled stork


Okay. I'll go to bed now. ;P

Well, I thought the thing in my nose was a fly, but it was snot.
