@Fershizzle I don’t care if you want to play the Oprah game or if you want to spend all day super poking people in Facebook. I don’t care.

The point is the site is a crock of shit. It does not work. It just takes whatever crap you type in the box and says that crap was there before Oprah. It does not really even check twitter.

So my point is (captioned for the hard of understanding) — is the folly of people just jumping on this like brainless feebs and not questioning if it means anything.

Yeah, I am really short on topics. Can I blog about you?

:p I find it rather amusing that people are doing this. People really don’t care if you were here before Oprah or not, and if they do, well…

What’s with the jab at the central Canadian provinces though? :p The majority of people up here don’t even know what Twitter is, never mind going and doing that. You could make the same generalizing statements about a New Yorker or someone from Turkey. :p

Maybe zippythewonderlizard the early adopter left before Twitter went annoyingly mainstream (as I am considering doing), hence his account has been deleted. :-)

Why do you care if folks want to play the I was here before Oprah game? It’s just a goofy little thing — I’m surprised you find it worthy of the soap box. Are you short on topics or something?

Twitter leemings- I totally agree. Twitter is getting full up with village idiots and spammers. I think the idea of not listing numbers of followers might not be a bad idea. Some people seem to be collecting followers for no reason other than ego.
