Plea to Twitter people

by tdhurst · 4 comments

Please stop taking Twitter literally.

We don’t need to know exactly what you’re doing. We don’t care what you had for breakfast. We don’t care where you’re at on your to do list.

We care about what you think, what you emote, and what your opinion is. We care about cool links. We care about funny anecdotes.

So, for the love of god, please don’t tell us that you’re walking your dog, or that you simply had food.

Be funny. Be insightful. Be amusing. Be opinionated.

Be yourself.

Or please stop. You’re annoying.

    Agreed! I wish people would realize this already…it should be applied to blogging too. I come across too many blogs that update people on their weight loss process or what routine they have before going to bed. Thanks, but no thanks.

    I guess they're just blogging for themselves, but dammit, be interesting!
