My name is ripley and I'm a Twitter addict.
People may not know this but I have actually had a twitter account for over a year now. I think I set it up more to just secure the name than anything else, and it was forever until I actually went on there and sent my first tweet. Btw, I still feel like an idiot calling it that.
It's only through the establishment of this blog that I have been logging in to Twitter more often, firstly to promote my posts but now primarily to comment on things and keep in contact. But in the last couple of days, my interest in it has exploded. I don't know whether its the fact that I can now access it from my phone, that I have a fancy tweetdeck app on Babygrey (my laptop), or just the simple fact that its basic premise is so inherently addictive, but I can't seem to step away.
Maybe I will get over it soon, but for right now, I am fixated. I feel like I have missed the boat on this a bit as everyone seems to have been doing it long before me, but now I can understand why its so massive.
Plus its awesome for stalking.
Not that I do that. At all.
EDIT: Plus my name's not really ripley. I'm a filthy liar.

Yes, quite, isn't it? The only drawback for stalkers (present company excepted) is that you can never tell who the hell's ON twitter still they start posting. But hey, that works. And our boys (and you know who they are!) are almost NEVER on twitter anymore, what with Mikey blowing up an MCR chat a few months ago; Frank waiting for babies to appear; Ray and Gerard doing WHATEVER...Thank God for twitter, it helps entertain me while I wait not-so-patiently for the new MCR album to see the light of day, hahaha. *starts ripping hair out*
ReplyDeleteTwitter? I'm surprised. I get why so many people love it but I think there is something a little self indulgent about it that I just don't understand. Like having a fb, myspaz, lj, tumbler, buzznet and a twitter too? More so if you only use them to post the same thing.... 50 million times.
ReplyDeleteKnow you don't do that, but just as a whole this generation feels the need to twitter, fb, myspaz, etc when they are taking a dump (ew) and for how long.
There should be an internet blocker that pops up saying, 'the rest of humanity is uninterested. Shut the fuck up.'
Also, BabyGrey got a shout out. :D
M, leave the hair alone! :) I firmly believe it is on its way soon! After 4 long years, what's another few months? :( And yes, twitter is very good for curing the boredom, but horrible for procrastinating.
ReplyDeleteAnd A, if I ever feel the need to take a dump, you will be the first to know! XD Haha, seriously though, I can see how you could easily fall in that trap, but hopefully I won't be that tedious. Besides, I don't even have a buzznet...
Buzznet.... mass fail.
ReplyDeleteThat whole website is a monstrosity that should be buried.
I'm flattered.... I think. :p
