I thought it would be interesting if we all posted our twitter ids and we could follow each other in addition to this site. Anyone up for it?

  1. I have no use for Twitter – the fucking name says it all. It’s just one more barrier that keeps people from interacting face to face. If I want to inform the public about my bowel movements, I’ll call the Metro, thanks.

  2. Oh yes, that’s just what people need to know…when I go to the bathroom, take steaks out of the freezer, walk the dog, ad nauseum. Ya, I need to be under even more of a virtual social microscope, like I need a root canal. It’s not enough that FB constantly urges,or “suggests” me to be pals with people I’ve never heard of or met, and asks me what I’m doing right now. Throw the soul sucking tirade of constant texting and emails…well, I’m supposed to find time to post minute by minute play by plays’ of my ever so exciting life? I am quite sure that twitter will appeal to those who will equate twitter followings with social standing and “fun”, but lets’ face it folks, as far as social redemption goes, it makes MySpace look like a cultural icon. Twitter is so 2008…novelty…flash in the pan…and for furthur thoughts and gems of ultimate wisdom you can twitter me @e-curmudgeon…ok just kidding, I deleted my twitter account last week. Sorry, but I kicked the tires, took it for a test drive last year, and it fell woefully short in actual purpose and content. It is right up there with the ads that urge you to contact all the losers in high school, that you could not wait to get away screaming from.

  3. How full of yourself do you have to be to think anyone cares about the mundane details of your life? How nosy do you have to be to want to hear about the mundane details of your friend’s lives?

  4. I just posted this on our twitter feed, twitter.com/twitcoast

    “OK, by popular request, the Coast’s Bitch Section #ltwwb. Or, is it easier to #bitch #Halifax? Either one will do, I guess.”

    SO if you are on Twitter, when you post, just make sure you include in your bitch #ltwwb and it will appear in these feeds:

    feed://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=%23bitch+%23halifax
    feed://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=%23ltwwb

    Or you can search them on http://search.twitter.com

    Still, I’d rather you bitch here because it’s better for our site stats. Most of the city wants to keep you contained, like a virus, or a pack of wild zombies.

    Thanks for bringing this up bitchers.

  5. Twitter is increasingly becoming the bane of my existence. Whereas previously was facefuck and dustbunnies.

  6. Weak.

    If people want to twitter, they can tweet till their fingers bleed. I don’t care. And that is my point. I don’t want to read their diaries or their twitter crap. The good news is, I don’t have to.

    BTW, I also realize the irony of me trashing people posting boring shit online as I sit here posting boring shit online.

  7. twitter is for teen girls in my opinion, i dont have the time , inclination or self absorbed quality required to assume someone is waiting to see what i’m having for supper or what i’m doing rignt now.

  8. twitter is FAR FAR less creepy than fb, imo. i love twitter. love it. and i just deactived my facebook account strangely enough…

  9. True that F7, yet strangely enough, people still think they have some sort of cosmic shield, that prevents potential future employers, police and government agencies, and that perfect man/woman you just met five years down the road, when u b all growed up, from reading this drivel. I am sure they will, in retrospect, very proud of the fact that they puked all over *insert name of forgettable date here* while attempting the wild thang. It is also staggering to hear how many people behave very badly, post, and are truly convinced, that no one outside their social group reads it. Pictures and video? Now that is a whole new bunch o’ fun!
