retweet addicts.

“i give up. i can’t follow someone who keeps retweeting.”

It didn’t matter if the individual was famous, on the list of all em’ hotshot local Tweeple. The fact was that the said individual RT (or retweeted) one too many times. If the RTs were informative, quirky and IN MODERATION, I wouldn’t mind. I’d consider it some garnish to the usual fanfare on the microblogging plate. But there comes a time when 95% of the tweets are RTs and the replies even include the RTs which makes 1. not simply no sense but 2. fuckin’ frustrating as hell.

I don’t need to subject my twitter feed to such abuse so I’m sorry, but I’m cutting you out.

I followed you on Twitter, thinking and truly believing of the interesting bits and quips of your life in 140 characters. But I forgot to do my research and found my timeline flooded with senseless drivel that works better on a self-absorbed blog where you regurgitate nothing of your own and only parrot others.
