And this is one of the reasons why I don't like twitter. Obviously people are replying to what he tweeted. But we can't see those. So reading his tweets, we're only seeing one side of the conversation.

I believe you can if you do a search for his username. I can't check that theory right now, as they started blocking Twitter at work apparently. ;)

[meshel73]

If you work out how to do it, let me know. The only thing I've found is 'Tweet Scan' but it's not very reliable.

EDIT: Nevermind, greycoupon pointed me in the right direction .....

I'm immensely amused that some of these cretins are trying to take on both AD & WilW? Quite a substantial force to be reckoned with IMO. :)

[meshel73]

LOL. I'm really regretting asking for a way to see the replies to his tweets. I'm reading through them and they just scream of "Aaron!!! Aaron!!!, look at me. I hope I say something really witty that will make him reply to me".

[ubiquitous_a]

Some of it is a little cringe-worthy, to be sure.

[meshel73]

You are so much more diplomatic than me. My inside voice was saying "freaks" :D

[ubiquitous_a]

You're catching me on a good day. ;)

Plus, I have to admit I have less of an issue with that stuff than I do with the inflammatory commenting that seems to fly in the face of, you know, FACTS.

People should feel free to fangirl/fanboy all they like, but when someone basically starts reality-smithing to suit their own (frequently narrow-minded) worldview, it stops being fun or cute, and I have a pretty low tolerance for that kind of nonsense.

[meshel73]

LOL. They are still replying to him. And what's even more amusing is that there's some people that had relatively boring icon photos and they've now changed them to saucy photos of themselves. This is like a train wreck. I can't look away.

[ubiquitous_a]

LOVE ME!! *lunge*

[kathm13]

hat's...tragic. And yet hysterical.

"Um...yeah. We totally met on Twitter. For my icon shot I had a picture of my Chihuahua, Scrumptious, but as soon as he Twitted something I put up a picture of me in my (carefully Photoshopped) turquoise bikini that I wore last time I went to Fort Lauderdale for Spring Break with my Kappa Sisters. The rest is history."

I think that if I'm replying to something in a thread, it goes to the bottom of the thread regardless. I've tried posting it but it still goes under ubiquitous_a's stuff.

[meshel73]

You're doing it right. See how my posts sticks out a little to the left. Yours and ubiquitous_a's comments are aligned the same underneath mine which means you both replied to me. Yours is just underneath hers because you commented after she did.

What you did before was reply to ubiquitous_a and your commented came indented underneath hers. So she would have received an email saying you replied to her but you were really replying to me.

[kathm13]

Yes, dear :) And you didn't really upset me, you know that, right?

[meshel73]

Yeah I know you were kidding :D

P.S. You're in good company. I tell off Aaron as well if he screws something up. I'm always saying "It's all about the pretty".

[madelineanne]

So my plan to get "Aaron!!! Aaron!!!, look at me. I hope I say something really witty that will make him reply to me" printed on a t-shirt, bad idea?

[meshel73]

For some reason that just reminded me of the movie Van Wilder. "Are you stalking me ... because that would be super". I can't remember if Ryan Reynolds just said that line in the movie or if he had it on a tshirt but a friend of mine had it on a tshirt she would wear to conventions.

Just for fun, all of us that have twitter should reply to his first tweet on this subject and write ... AARON!!! AARON!!! LOOK AT ME!!! LOOK AT ME!!!
