You might be wondering what the frick this title means. well, if you have been living under a rock you let us expose you to the extraordinary, worthless world of TWITTER.
First of all, this is one social website we can safely say we will refuse to use. we don't care if you're baking cookies or you just got a plus 8 safety in WOW. no one cares, especially us. we also wouldn't expect you to care if abraham and the lincolns just gained 5,000 fans in rock band (we probably wouldn't update our Twitter to tell you that in the first place). we don't want to hear about how you're eating a brownie batter blizzard or just got tickets to see blink. chances are we've already done that (because we're kind of awesome). we just don't care.
According to Twitter, this is what the site is for:
Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing?
Oh yes, we've heard of this before. ITS CALLED THE TELEPHONE. think of how pissed alexander graham bell would be if he found out people we're using this measly website to update people on their lives. i mean really, if you're mom is reading your twitter, we'll just say it. you're a terrible son/daughter. even email will work. we'll admit we do a lot of texting between each other and other friends. if we wanted to know what you're doing with your life, we'd ask. or awkwardly run into you at wal-mart then feel obligated to ask even if we didn't want to know what you were up to. at least i'm not following you on twitter.
the only thing twitter is half ways useful for is marketing. organizations, musicians, your average famous person. they could use this social site if they wanted to update us fans about shows, new movies, etc. but isn't that what things like facebook, people.com, and foxsports.com are for? now you're just being lazy. the majority of the time there's 18 people claiming they're a famous person. you can't even follow the correct person, they system is obviously flawed. we would have told you that 2 years ago.
and apparently you can have a conversation with people on Twitter? how is that even possible? wait, we don't care. in conclusion, we hate twitter. it's just another tool that the internet has provided a way for us to sit on our asses and update random people about how lame/awesome your life is all while some computer genuis is making millions.
daily high five: a high five to fridays! i mean it's almost saturday, and since thursday's are the new fridays, wouldn't fridays be the new saturdays? we're going to have to add a day of the week eventually, how about funday?
daily bitch slap: the obvious is twitter. except we'd bitch slap this website everyday if we could, but that would get boring after awhile. and you know we like to keep things spicy.

so glad you have shed the light on twitter...I personally never got it (and frankly still dont). I have a daily bitch slap to add: those who update their facebook status every hour (or more often). I dont care that you are running, showering, tanning, showering, shitting, etc. Also, who puts "I just threw up" as their status?? COME ON!! No one wants to know that!
