Celebrities and Their Twitter Accounts

I know I've let all of my dear readers down by not posting to my blog as frequently as you would like, but life takes precedence over anything extracurricular. But, here I am again with another post on things that really grind my gears about Twitter.

Dear celebrities, what is the point of creating a Twitter account if you're not willing to interact with your fans? Do you think we take pleasure in living vicariously? I don't. I could give two shits about what you ate for breakfast and what color shoes you picked to wear today. It just irritates the F out of me when celebrities just basically brush their fans off as if we don't exist. Look, we exist and ultimately, WE OWN ALL OF YOU! 

Listed below are my top 5 current irritations with celebrity Twitter accounts. If you have something to add comment below and I'll add it if I agree with it. 


1. Twitter is only as fun as the people you interact with. What is the point in making an account in the first place if all you do is send Twitpics and various dry ass quotes about life all day. Here's a quote, deactivate your account and your life. 

2. So you made an account just to interact with your celebrity friends? Oh. Don't you have their phone numbers? Don't you see them on set like every week or so? Okay, sooo get off of my timeline with your banter and make use of your unlimited message plan that you might possibly get comped for. 

3. "Thank you so much to all of my fans for..." How about you reach out to some of your fans on Twitter personally. I know it would not be humanly possible to reach out to each and every single fan out there, but a little effort on your part would be great. If not for your fans, what do you have?

4. "Hey guys can RT this message for me because I'm helping this charity and although I'm too busy to ever reply to any of my fans I need you to do this for me because this is near and dear to my heart and you're my fan you will do anything for me, right?." >__< (insert mindless followers here). 

5. The celebrities who feel that you should feel privileged because they are following you back. HAHA really? Okay, you can have that.

Why Twitter Has Failed Me

Twitter makes me angry sometimes you know why? It's because you start out with an agenda that you will follow interesting people who have interesting things to say, and over time those interesting people become less interesting with even more less interesting things to say. Then you get caught in the "I like this Tweeter, but what they retweet is just, UGH!" Trust I know, that is the very bind I find myself in right now.

I like to think of myself as a kind, sweet, and tolerant person, but Twitter has me walking on a fine line of "Bitch Get Off My TL (time line) With Your Spamming and Nonsense", and "What an Intellectual Tweet that was."

So here we are with a list of Twitter rules I feel every fellow Tweeter should follow. 

1. If the Tweet was sent out over 24 hours ago DO NOT Retweet it!

2. Spamming is a no no and you will go go right off of my following list.

3. I don't care about who is following you, if I did, I would be stalking your followers list.

4. Follow Friday's have gotten out of hand. I am grateful that you like my Tweets however, spamming my TL with a giant generated list of #FF shout outs will get you an automatic pass to Unfollow Me Friday hell.

5. If someone takes the time out to Tweet you (and you're not a celebrity) due at least acknowledge them. Stating that you don''t have the time to answer back makes you look like an ass because if you didn't have the time then you wouldn't be tweeting in the first place.

6. STOP SENDING ME KANYE TWEETS! I DON'T GIVE A FLYING FUCK WHAT HE HAS TO SAY!

7. Since I've checked Twitter was a place of free speech so if you don't like what someone has to say, hit UNFOLLOW.

8. This is not a dating service. If you need help in that department call Oprah, or visit eharmony.com

9. Follow for Follow? Fuck no! The end!

10. STOP FOR THE LOVE OF POTTER spamming celebrity Twitter accounts with I love you's, can you please follow me, say hi to me, I will die if you don't..., please look at this. It's pathetic people. really.

11. Don't get offended when someone decides not to follow you. Their follows should not be imperative to your everyday life. If you're that desperate... well I have no words for you.

12. Twitter is not intended for extended conversations. If you have something to say that's more than the allotted 140 character limit, send it in an email.
