Tweaked
Ok, I am starting to see a trend here when it comes to this social networking thing. First we had Myspace, it was the “bomb” according to most high schoolers, until of course a bored Mom started playing games with a teenager on it which resulted in an unhappy ending for the teenager.
Next Facebook took over and is doing rather well if you can put up with all of the Mafia games, someone “sent you a beer” requests, “You acquired a new evil skill” notifications and so and so just found a new egg of some type.
But the one which is getting to me is Twitter. I do not even use it and its language is moving into my world. There is becoming an annoying number of “Twitterisms”. For instance a headline I just read says, “Teacher uses Twitter for "Tweaching".
You have, Twittocracy, Tweeple (The people who Twit, which I would just call them “Twits”, it seems more fitting.), Twittette Syndrome for the Tweeple who Twucking cuss all the Twod damn time in their tweets. Twitterholic is another one for a person who posts over 500 tweets a day. (Twuicide would describe what I would do, if I did nothing better than Tweet 500 times a day.)
Next thing you know we will be going to the Twace Twack to get on our Twotorcycles, Twheelie bars or no Twheelie bars, to Twace. We will sit in the Twaging lane and then go through the Twaterbox in order to do a Twurnout before going to the Twine so we can watch the Twee and hopefully cut a Twerfect Twight instead of a Twed Twight so you can win the Twace. God forbid we have a Twreck on the pass and mess up our Tweathers or much worse suffer a Twingery, have to get in the Twambulance for a Twip to the Twospital.
If all goes well and you win, AMA Twagbike will give you a Twurse, Twontingencies as well as a mention in Twaightliner.
It is not like the English language does not already have enough annoying traits as it is, like my southern accent…(If I could just stop saying “Ya’ll” and cut “Hell” down to one syllable it would not be so bad.) We need to learn how to use the language we already have before we all sound like a bunch of Twittering idiots.
