““not attributing sources” as one of the most evil of all internet/social media (esp. twitter) flaws!”, quote from kdascheller (poster up higher) That is a great point, it’s those that “retweet” without the “re”. It’s flattering that what I said was found worthy of repeating however I expect to get credit where credit is due.

Updates for things like breathing and going to the bathroom is tops on my list. The overdrawn out fights scores pretty high on the annoyance scale.

I’d have to say RT compliments about yourself is the one I hate the most. It is straight up shameless self-promotion and make me want to vomit! YUCK

True words. Maybe add “not attributing sources” as one of the most evil of all internet/social media (esp. twitter) flaws! It’s pretty painful to find you own work/tweets/… attributed to somebody else!

Well said. Some folks just weren’t raised right, I guess.

I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad thing to thank people for following you. But social media is at its best when it’s genuine in my opinion. If you’d like to thank someone I think it would be best to make an individual dm that’s personalized and directed at that individual. Sure, it may take a little more time, but anything worth doing is worth doing right. But again, this is my opinion and we’re all allowed to do it our own way

I completely agree with you on every one of your points, in particular #FollowFriday. In what is probably a douchebag move, I’ve sent the abusers a DM telling them that ten posts on #follows is annoying and if they keep it up I’ll have to drop them. I don’t measure my self-worth based on the number of followers I have, so I’m not afraid to dump the tweets I don’t give a shit about. Needless to say, I’ve dropped all those douchebags.

@Tdevilman676 your #unfollowsaturday is fucking brilliant!
