A Comment on Twitter Language

So,

As you may notice, I really like my micro-blogging. Mostly in the use of Twitter, through the act of posting "Tweets". Twitter has it's own set of explainitory terminology. Which is fine; but frankly I think this whole "Glomm every word together with 'TW' in front of it" is getting a little out of hand. If you head on over to Twittonary aka dictionary to Twitter words, you can browse through a series of letters in the alphabet to better acquaint yourself for some better knowledge and understanding.

For Example:

twadd: to add/follow someone to your Twitter account as a friend.

twead: to read a tweet from a fellow twitterer.

tweetaholism: the continued use of Twitter as an addiction that is difficult to control.

tweetup: when twitterers meet in person- a Twitter meet up.

twis: to dis a fellow twitterer. very bad form.

As you may have guessed it, the list goes on and on into the land of ridiculousness.

This business is starting to remind me a little to much of that Video store I used to go to called "Yo Video". The slogan for the store was "Yo Want It! Yo Got It". And pretty much everything in the store had to do with the world "Yo"

So in the spirit of 'Tw', I have decided to add some of my own Twitter words

Twumb@$$: A non-intelligent twitterer

Twidiculous: Ridiculous Twitter comment or Tweet if you will
Twat: (oh no, I would have to get all NC 17 to fully explain that one........)

I could go on here but I think you get the point. Twitter is just fine how it is. We don't need to learn a new language to use it.

PS: When I did the spell check "Twumb@$$ didn't register as being a spelling error. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!
