LOL: 46 Stages Of Twitter.
There are still many people in this world that refuse to give into the ever-so-cool social networking site, Twitter. I think it’s silly because you know deep down inside, all you nay sayers are going to end up getting one anyway. Might as well just join the crowd, sign up and follow muah(Twitter.com/Sunshiiine, lol). Also, quit the mockery, it’ll save you some humiliation when us Tweoples say “I told you so”. Just like when people stayed away from Facebook and listed all the flaws it had compared to MySpace. Now I catch them updating their status constantly and therefore I said “I told you so”.
A victim of this world wide web epidemic is my friend Rose or should I say Ms. Twitter.com/BlueVelvetSea. She knows it and that is why she sent me this site which led me to find The 46 Stages Of Twitter. It’s hilarious. Enjoy!
