l’esprit de l’escalier
twitter makes you weak, and now that you use birdhouse you’re even more of a lameass.
twitter: giving a fifteen minute leeway to responses to something someone saw and overthought and overprocessed for fourteen minutes. irl: these users are not as clever or witty on their feet and are generally construed as “boring” or “an aspie”.
wanna see a tragic and quiet meet-up? go to a twitter party. everyone is afraid to talk first and then it’s two crappy jokes from two people and the conversation is over and everybody is uncomfortable again.
i bet i could pare this down to 140 characters or less. especially if i abbreviate and act like i’ve spent the last three years thinking out every single one of my facebook status updates.
