I do, mainly about what I'm having for tea and how many times I've scratched my ****. I've got the Twitter Facebook app so when I tweet it updates my Facebook status this reducing the need to repost the same tedious nonsense. If anyone feels compelled to read the garbage that pops into my head whilst taking a dump, my username is the same as here.

Waste of frigging bandwidth, along with FaceFook and all those other types of sites. Those new fangled forums aren't much better either..hold on...erm.

the only think that should twitter or tweet should be birds. Whats the medias obsession with it, do they have shares on it, or nothing else to do all day!

I'm afraid I must confess, I do Twitter.
Won't surprise a lot of you

Get's me motivated enough to actually try and do things that may be interesting enough to put up there. Like playing with my Millennium Falcon Transformer

I don't. What kind of person wants to post exactly what they're doing 24/7?

Following John Favreau on Twitter atm, he's directing Ironman 2 etc. quite interesting, if you're into that sort of thing. Always putting up really good pics and details of on set stuff.
Stephen Fry is always amusing as well.

Suppose it would be handy for seeing what an artist/singer etc was up to. I did sign up, because I had to see what all the fuss was about. But once I realised how it worked I wasn't really interested.

Yeah it's not for all and I can certainly see why alot of people wouldn't be interested in it.

I don't really see the point of it!

7.30am I just woke up with a huge stiffy, going to try a pee!

7.45am I couldn't bend my **** downwards so had to lie over the pan to pee,

8.00am decided after dropping a really smelly fart and having a bit of gut rot it's time to lay a cable.

8.30am half an hour just spent on the bog giving birth to one hell of a smelly ****, I was gonna have a **** too but had to escape the smell before my eyes started bleeding.

8.45am Oh I hear the postie brb

8.46am It wasn't the postie, twas just another clothes collection bags coming through the door

9.00am decided to go for that **** brb

9.01am nope the toilet is still too smelly, even the ceiling fan has melted due to the smell.

9.10am I'm going to log into SN and go cut the grass whilst the page loads

9.50am I've cut the grass, it's now shorter than it was yesterday, I had to poo pick the dogs presents first though, found a huge slug on the grass, so I pinged it into the neighbours garden with the plastic poo picking tool.

10.00am SN has finally loaded and Swiss has posted a joke, I'm going to look at it.

10.40am Swisses joke wasn't funny but I posted a lol and a just cos I'm nice.

10.45am I'm off to wash the bird **** off the car.

10.46am Scrub that, it's pissing down.

10.49 myspacebarseemstobebroken.

10.50am I'mofftocomitsuicide

11.00am Aaaarrrrrrggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

I have done some boredom twitting, when ever the missus ***** off to the toilet when we are in the pub or some other boring crap, i usually check it to see what's happening.

I don't feel the need to update every single part of my life or anything crazy like that.

checking the last update, mine was 3 days ago, then 5 days, then 8 days, and then 19 days, so i am doubtful that i am a "hardcore user"

besides, mine are proper updates

# now in a pub with a pint of strongbow and a chill-con-carne on the way. 5 days ago

# - in a pub somewhere in northumberland. Belly full of burger. 19 days ago

# - is looking forward to a nice cold beverage when i get home. 39 days ago

I like Twitter -- I don't actually post very much but like to see the ramblings of the people I follow.

What happened to meeting up with your mates and catching up with gossip / chilling out together, or even going for a kick about ?

It seems like society doesnt want to leave its chair nowadays and do everything online. Facebook was a big hit, everyone was trying to out do each other with the number of friends. But even that site got too hardwork, so twitter was invented, its a light weight version of facebook.

Twatters is a good name for it.

Actually, you also 'mentioned the 'Bombay Badboy' on Twitter. I have the proof!
