This expresses the utter inanity and enraging self-absorption and triviality of Twitter. Someone on my f-list uses it and refuses to use a LJ cut, and for that reason alone I was tempted to unfriend, until, oh frajous day! Someone shared with me the way to put all Twits under a cut (I'd share but I don't remember how she told me to do it, except it involved using the admin console)
Yeah, I'm not a big fan, either, lol. I can't say anyone particularly bothers me with it, but I really don't understand the appeal. However, to be honest, it took me a few years before I could be talked into getting an LJ. So I've suspected my Twitter indifference was just another sign of me being out of touch. It's nice to know I'm not the only one out there scratching their head over this phenomena!
Well, *cough* I resisted LJ too. For years. So maybe I shouldn't talk... It didn't help that a lot of the people I least liked in Trek were talking up LJ as the latest and greatest, and for a long time I thought of them as EVUL (I'm not sure they're not sometimes, they do seem one way of wank spreading and being amplified, but I've also made friends through it I wouldn't).
Once I was immersed into LJ, I did see its charms, but I think the last straw for me with Twitter was one "twit" where swear to God the person reported they had just swabbed their nose--for almost all it really is like the YouTube above, these really trivial annoying reports of what you never wanted to know...
I rolled over, put my legs on the floor and got out of bed...

This has to be a passing fad? Right? Oh please...

I'm walking now to the bathroom...
I've pulled my toothbrush out of the holder...
I've squeezed toothpaste out of the tube...
And it never ends...
