OK, which one of you is @BARTSIMSON_REAL?

somethingawful, like the onion, is a lot funnier in 140 characters or less

this is obv why the onion's twitter account is the crowning jewel of its media empire.

Nobody reads an onion article past the headline

mtv video game short attention span generation etc.

nah like 1 out of every 50 onion articles are worth reading from start to finish, most of them feel overly workshopped, best move they did was moving to that paragraph format, i actually do read the entire paragaraph (only sometimes)

anyone who thinks those feedbuzz articles are funnier than even the most average onion article is drunk

that site is literally a one-shot gag

you could say the same thing about @KattWillFerrell but that would miss the point entirely.

the average onion article is pretty funny wtf

yeah dayo you're nuts

you could say the same thing about @KattWillFerrell but that would miss the point entirely.

No, the importance of that mummery of an awards ceremony was not musical, but political and cultural – what it reflected about the garden of nightmares America had become.

everybody otm re: bro pair. i like mobute (though that gawker self-doxxing was the ugliest voluntary unmasking since kiss was promoting lick it up).

mobute can turn a phrase. his breitbart obit was all time.

otoh this bro_pair brendle faceoff was great: http://www.mrdestructo.com/2013/04/point-counterpoint-is-satire-even-thing.html

7027899844 this is susie bells number call her media ask her if she will take a polygraph.lol

posting her name, phone number and photos of her is next level escalation, well done jose. this will play well in any legal proceedings.

uh

good thing you reposted it in case the tweet gets deleted

right??

https://twitter.com/ValEKilmer/status/337707333612359680

I love u val

the thing about his dead brother was o_O

looks like he deleted it!

one tweet was sth like "this painting is by my brother, who died, i think about him every day" [link to an instagram of a painting]

the next one was like "apologies, painting not by my brother"

haaaaah

so he's really into collages now?

ok idk if this is "weird twitter" but it's def weird, twitter

i tweet v infrequently; a couple weeks ago i said something about a local band. this tweet has attracted likes from four fake spam bot accts, spouting nonsense (for 1 day!) inna horse_ebooks style

Lane Mohammed @Brynnjyxa
Marcene Dinkin @Kareyzmqr
Carita Friedt @Jeanicecvhg
Freddie Kuehne @Vikivvtj

the first three have urls that all resolve to a follower shop (http://followersdelivery.com/) probably the most depressing thing i can think of besides genocide or josef fritzl tbh

the last one bears a blacklisted link to "betterjesus.info/[etc etc]", no thanks.

i guess this kind of stuff must be pretty common if you're on twitter a lot? the mystery to me is what was in that tweet that attracted this attention
