Twitter is for Twits
Twitter is ridiculous.
Did I miss the memo that the natural conclusion of stalking is no longer the restraining order?
No, apparently now following someone throughout all of their waking moments is actually welcomed and encouraged through the wonderful web 2.0 site Twitter.com.
What are you doing right now? Eating chimichangas? Ignoring the minority that’s hailing your cab? Stalking someone else? Whatever you’re doing, it’s proper fodder for the Twitter Twits.
If you haven’t yet heard of Twitter, consider yourself lucky. It’s a site that allows you to send out updates of up to 140 words on everything and anything that might be happening to you in a day. No matter how banal or mundane, it’s all welcome on Twitter.
Now bear in mind that there are some legitimate uses for Twitter. For example, organizations like FUNKMODE use Twitter to deliver essential information about the products their customers purchase and use. Unfortunately, the majority of Twitter users have not happened upon such sensible usage.
Apparently millions of people believe what they’re eating for breakfast is important enough to be broadcast to the world. What’s more, there is a whole world of people that are feeding this paparazzi-like frenzy of intrusiveness by actually signing up to follow this inane blather 24/7.
Now you don’t have to be famous to be a celebrity. Just sign up for Twitter and you too can have your privacy invaded just like the stars. Why seek fame through merit when you can have all the negative side effects with no effort at all?
I wish stupidity was painful.
