@thumpg So twitter appeals to two groups of people: self-obsessed megalomaniacs and vapid, pathetic losers whose deaths would go unnoticed by society at large and would be mourned by no one.
William Batchelder is just another one of Sarah Palin’s DICKLESS and BALLESS BITCHES and PUSSIES! Palin is VASTLY SUPERIOR to this ass-clown in every single way. This is a clear sign that Palin WILL become POTUS! Male dominance in politics is coming to an end! Nobody can hack Palin’s twitter and facebook account for they are BOTH protected by GOD HERSELF!
@Capng123
its not that these peoples lives are interesting. its just the people who keep up with twitter live boring mundane lives so anything other than their own is interesting
@TTEchidna YESSS!! There’s age discrimination in the form of a minimum limit, so I think it’s only fair and wise to have a maximum limit as well. Who knows how far gone their brains are, and plus, they’re old, they’re going to die soon, they don’t have any stake in the world anymore. What’s their motivation? To just get as rich as possible until you die? Minimum AND maximum age limits are something that seriously need to be considered.
So.. the guy’s 60, but “little televisions” have been out since the 80′s – 30 fucking years ago. And the IBM SCAMP laptop prototype came out in ’73. So the guy was technologically failing since he was 20, that is just sad.
I wish my life was interesting enough to have a Twitter account but it’s not. The highlight to some of my days is going shopping for something specific real quick.
@Psychoesis I’ll let you in on a secret: NOBODY’S life is interesting enough to make Twitter worthwhile. It’s the most pointless, narcissistic, self-indulgent, utterly worthless piece of software ever written.
The fact that it’s most prominent users are celebrities and politicians underlines it’s target audience of users: self-obsessed megalomaniacs.
I don’t think people should be allowed to become politicians unless they can demonstrate at least basic knowledge of how to use a computer. This is 2011, for crying out loud! Even my 87 year-old grandpa knew how to use a cellphone.
I hear twitter is a series of tubes.
volume issues again???…………….
Bat shelter?
jayar’s volume UP! ad/intro volume DOWN
Elton’s got a twin?

That’s not exactly a ringing endorsement.

@Capng123 so much truth in that.
I think that he should hit the Twitter device with an “Internet” until the hacker pops out…lol
@TansuTansu2
What I want to know is: how did you post that comment without using one of these little televisions?

I guess then,
that House Speaker Batchelder didn’t take any photos
of his “Weiner”. no?

Giving out your account information to someone or making an easily guessable password does not mean you were hacked.
Where can I get one of them small tv’s?
He kind of looks like Austin Powers.

@Houshalter More than that. Most of them already have 1 foot in the grave. “Old” is an understatement.
