I can't cope with most of the weird twitteratti. i usually unfollow anyone who starts tweeting 50+ times a day. I loved reading through those classic tweet comics though, this was a good one:
patrick@tastefactory"I'm the only cop on the force who can play the bassoon dammit" "Not anymore" New cop in sunglasses walks in, just killing it on the bassoon
I was giggling to myself all day over this old wolfpupy gem:
wolf puppy@wolfpupya frog with hair on and you can brush the hair with a special brush

i thought that article was kind of a mess to read, and this is from someone who's been following that whole scene since its pre-twitter days. i think if i wasn't in the know already it would just be tremendously confusing to read through. which is maybe the point

WHY CAN'T WE CALL IT WEIRD TWITTER?
@weedhitler: It's a hell of a lot easier than saying "surrealist narcissists who hate themselves." But it's a really irksome phrase.

i like to think that they tried to reach out to utility limb but the email they got back was just a completely black screen that made them feel alone + bereft of all hope

the funniest troll-y thing weird twitter did was imho when they highjacked the hashtag for some bicycle day thing in toronto and made all these claims of police brutality and it turned into this whoe hilarious story and was so funny and im upset and disappointed it wasnt included in the article

the bike day thing was about tedx toronto as i recall, which was streaming appropriately tagged tweets to a huge led screen somewhere. the claims were that they had taken all the bikes off the racks because they were illegally parked. this eventually transformed into an elaborate story about a bike bonfire.
