Luther Campbell is grammatically hopeless but can be funny in an original way. Too bad he tweets predominately about sports.

I judge Cher to be no more or less solid at twitter than icet

I also just wanted to type that post and check straight after that I typed it

Ruth Buzzi is quite good. Lots of old-school quips, but well-executed ones. We tend not to expect octogenarians to be witty but really there's no reason they can't be.

Neville Southall

mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Friday, 11 January 2019 13:15 (seven years ago)

Robert Earnshaw

He's no Neville Southall.

Never Turn Your Back On Virginia Woolf (Tom D.), Friday, 11 January 2019 13:17 (seven years ago)

oops!

Is Craig Bellamy any good?

Never Turn Your Back On Virginia Woolf (Tom D.), Friday, 11 January 2019 13:18 (seven years ago)

I heard he has some cracking bantz about beating up children!

seeing as celebz are bad and twitter is bad - there won't any real winners in this thread.

Hey, he's just picking on someone his own size.

Never Turn Your Back On Virginia Woolf (Tom D.), Friday, 11 January 2019 13:24 (seven years ago)

lol!

John Tesh almost exclusively posts tips about health and saving money and such. Definitely worse uses of Twitter out there.

Chris L, Friday, 11 January 2019 14:55 (seven years ago)

Chrissy Teigen is the only one that is consistently funny/witty for a non-comedic celebrity.

I subtract points for all the Huffpost pieces her tweets have birthed

We were never Breeting Borting (President Keyes), Friday, 11 January 2019 15:22 (seven years ago)

I had know idea who she was until people I follow retweeted her. She is great.

A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Friday, 11 January 2019 15:24 (seven years ago)

I just looked at Huffpo because I was wondering why I never, ever look at it. The layout is still terrible.

Yerac, Friday, 11 January 2019 15:36 (seven years ago)

jason isbell is good at twitter

harvey wall/barrier (voodoo chili), Friday, 11 January 2019 16:07 (seven years ago)

yep. pretty sure he's the most famous non-politics person I follow

I remember Val Kilmer being great but it’s mostky promotional stuff now.

JoeStork, Friday, 11 January 2019 17:10 (seven years ago)

Once 50 Cent gave me a red muscle car because I loved my 69 GTO. Inside th trunk said #GUNIT and was FILLED w/amps and subwoofers. I wept.

val kilmer used to use the hashtag #VALIBU a lot which was cool

( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉) (jim in vancouver), Friday, 11 January 2019 17:19 (seven years ago)

Val Kilmer fits, I don't remember him being insane in the 90s/early 00s

Tony Hawk would fit but his TL is mostly run of the mill, this is awesome though:

TSA agent (checking my ID): "Hawk, like that skateboarder Tony Hawk!"
Me: exactly
Her: "Cool, I wonder what he's up to these days"
Me: this

jaymc, Friday, 11 January 2019 17:33 (seven years ago)

that's a good one. Martin Scorsese has an instagram just for his dog.

flappy bird, Friday, 11 January 2019 17:35 (seven years ago)

I have a vague connection to Liam and he's... not a great person. Don't encourage him!

Cher is the best tho, I <3 this dad joke

🚽Says "his administration is running like a fine tuned machine".
Yes....a Garbage Disposal

yoko ono

flopson, Friday, 11 January 2019 17:46 (seven years ago)

not unexpected

flappy bird, Friday, 11 January 2019 17:48 (seven years ago)

Okay wait, is 'Liam Gallagher is not a great person' news? He's Liam Gallagher!

Andrew Farrell, Friday, 11 January 2019 17:55 (seven years ago)

He's sort of transitioned from "unlikeable twat" to "lovable rogue" lately, at least in some press coverage.

I once asked the person who knows him if he had any redeemable qualities, and he said "That Liam's not in the room with us right now, but that's it"

Chuck_Tatum, Friday, 11 January 2019 19:22 (seven years ago)

you probably think Dennis Haskins is too old and lame to know how to wish his followers a Happy Thanksgiving

well guess what? if you thought that, you'd be WRONG

Celebrities who are insufferable on twitter:

Dan Rather

flappy bird, Friday, 11 January 2019 19:48 (seven years ago)

He's every lefty's concerned gramps over on FB too.

Infidels, Like Dylan In The Eighties (C. Grisso/McCain), Friday, 11 January 2019 20:12 (seven years ago)

TAN MOM

kurt schwitterz, Friday, 11 January 2019 20:18 (seven years ago)

TRUE
tbf I expect any wack packer to be good at twitter. Eric's was the best

flappy bird, Friday, 11 January 2019 22:01 (seven years ago)

Ryley Walker

Evan, Friday, 11 January 2019 22:04 (seven years ago)

Oh wait, I'm not sure how to gauge whether it's "unexpected" unless they're really old or something

Evan, Friday, 11 January 2019 22:05 (seven years ago)

Ryley Walker works, I didn't know he was a musician until like a week ago, thought he was just a poster. so yes, we got one

flappy bird, Friday, 11 January 2019 22:06 (seven years ago)

Reminded me of people being confused about John D's twitter, I remember him reposting or retweeting a lot of stuff along the lines of "wait... mountain goats makes music?"

flappy bird, Friday, 11 January 2019 22:07 (seven years ago)

five months pass...

not a celebrity but the government's official account for consumer product safety is uh....really weird

frogbs, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 15:26 (six years ago)

Nice. Someone w/ limited skills really likes photoshop.

Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 15:45 (six years ago)

ha ha this is like when the Hollywood Handbook boys read the train safety ads
