I love twitter, if only as just a short stop for information and giggles. And of course it’s nice having an instant output, too. It makes inane passing comment acceptable. However, I will never understand the idea of gaining followers.
Currently, I have about 30 of them, which is fine by me. But there is a large portion of them who, great as they may be, are very optimistic and produce several daily twotes (quotes on twitter – I made it up, why not) about how to tackle the moment and seize the something. People who sell houses and own businesses and who seem successful, probably because they are so motivated and go-getting. Now, I don’t consider this a down point, that would be stupid, I just find it amazing that they have found this 19 year old, apathetic cynic with an definite negative perspective of current and prevailing social humanity – the kind of person that doesn’t believe in souls or civilization beyond 2070 – a person worth following. Even if my nihilistic cynicism is jest and play, it’s rampant enough to get a bit annoying for anyone who wakes up ready charged like a Duracell Bunny.
Anyway, that’s all I have to say. Not a big post; just a small, self deprecating, annoying, cynical one. The usual, he say’s to the barman.
