lag∞n, Friday, 1 December 2017 18:58 (six years ago) link

Which people have been goofing on for years but it’s a new blossoming of the form

i did a baby shoes one way back, it's true that they aren't funny

ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Friday, 1 December 2017 19:36 (six years ago) link

some of the baby shoes ones are funny playing off the fact that were supposed to genuflect before the original

i'm pro plums but it has gone too far

reggae mike love (polyphonic), Friday, 1 December 2017 19:41 (six years ago) link

i agree, he shd not have eaten the plums, even if they were cold and sweet

lag∞n, Friday, 1 December 2017 19:42 (six years ago) link

idk maybe people really are uncontrollably guffawing at the 4000th non-variation of (extremely 280 characters voice) "90s meme song lyrics, also plums" and I'm a joyless monster for my only reaction is "oh. Yes. Yes, I see what this is"

we are having all-time storms and flooding, and there have been six tweets about it in the past hour. twitter is decaying.

Yeah, was gonna say, "plums" is basically just Lysol Douche/and here's why/many other threads for twitter.

emil.y, Monday, 4 December 2017 10:36 (six years ago) link

I don't disagree with that

sonnet by a wite kid, "On Æolian Grief" (wins), Monday, 4 December 2017 10:58 (six years ago) link

we totally invented Better Twitter before Twitter existed

illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Monday, 4 December 2017 11:04 (six years ago) link

I don't disagree either and yet its an improvement on all of them:

My name is cow
Wen I behold
Some fruit get kept
Were it is cold
I gobble up
Wat I find dere
Look on my works
I eat dis pear

Rose is red
Vilits blu
Never gonna
Give up u
Whose woods are dese
Beet beet drums
My sekrit is
I et yr plums

guys i've done a little research and read some of the baby shoes tweets and they're bad, sorry

k3vin k., Monday, 4 December 2017 18:56 (six years ago) link

I feel the shit account tour bracket is generally a symptom of horribleness but as an annual way for me to notice and understand the badness of certain tweetspheres it’s illuminating

sadly this year I recognize 2/3rds of the people and.... ok they’re fucking horrible
