OK, which one of you is @BARTSIMSON_REAL?

also most of those comics are from the bad part of weird twitter thats all favstar 18 yr olds just rearranging the same set of tropes

more like [dad|weed|hitler|piss|dog|teens|boner] twitter

yes

ok ok ok
ok

ilx not a fan of twitter the comic the tumblr

this is almost entirely a verbal joke. it's a verbal joke about an image, but the verbal turn is what gives it the action, or actually the multiple verbal turns, in the shift from direct address to action, and then the shift from craning to unscrewing, etc. the way it builds up the gag is all about how those few words are chosen. and how does one draw a "mystery" anyway?

wait there's another part to weird twitter??

the goons who came up with those tropes

those dudes are virtually indistinguishable from the 18 yr olds and/or just tweet about israel all day

eh not to put too fine a point on it but i think there is a vast difference between e.g. patricia lockwood and the million people who adopted the "sext tweet" format after her

noted somethingawful goon patricia lockwood

haha

who is actually humorous on "weird twitter?" dril and utilitylimb and patricia lockwood are funny but like i followed rare_basement for a minute and it's just a menagerie of retweets from guys with "dudehugs420boner" names that are almost staggeringly unfunny

seems like it's a ton of, yeah, "favstar 18 yr olds"

the secret is that 'weird twitter' is never humorous as you experience it in the present

like if a dude has >5,000 tweets then like 4990 of those are guaranteed garbage, and the other 10 are on favstar

kind of the impression i got but hey most of the "weird twitter" guys that follow me are old men posing as adult babies and shit like that so

yeah, twitter is full of that sort of noise, you have to learn how to manage it xp

you can manually turn off retweets by certain ppl u follow, iirc. that helps.

also, it's v v wise to block people who are sucky and bad so they don't unexpectedly get retweeted into your timeline.

this is why utility limb was so good because of the insanely high consistency of good tweets

rare_basement is the queen of the favstar crew

bandit, dril, fart, dogboner, pupy are all (iirc) ex-boons. lockwood and notopoulos arent but theyre not favstarcrewe

i mean i get that theres not really a distinction but

like hell-homer and that map of weird twitter. all taht shit is like high schoolers on favstar

i want twitter accounts that are all performance, i get so bored when people are also just using their twitter as well. bandit stopped doing it really fast but even graey alien does it a bit

graeyalien's cut down on it, he used to treat it as a "normal" twitter account with added joeks a lot more

i always think of graeyalien as a she

yeah but its graeydave now isn't it?

that tumblr is really good if you ignore the comics

i mean i get that theres not really a distinction but

what is ed balls

http://www.dailysquib.co.uk/thumbnail.php?file=/Ed_Balls_360_852191685.jpg&size=article_medium

Ed Balls accidentally put his name into the tweet box instead of the search box so he tweeted 'Ed Balls'. Made famous by the twitter maoist wing of weird twitter.

ah just doing him job i guess

Hey anime Marxist care crew: unlike fantasy sports wang joke crew, the twitter people actually want to hurt you: #tcot. Yell at them instead

weird twitter beefing

yeah what is going on there, i keep seeing people alluding to that thom guy and some kind of "what happened was FUCKED UP" but nobody actually clarifies what that is, i'm just assuming it has to do with @pontifex until further notice

this has maybe something to do w it

@dongstoevsky the "joke" was that goons are gross regardless but it was widely reviled and i got put on The List

1 hr Amanda Hugankiss ‏@a_girl_irl
@dongstoevsky 2 years ago i said that troons weren't particularly attractive no matter what they identified as /transitioned to

email password isn't the same as twitter password i guess he's not completely stupid

Amanda Hugankiss ‏@a_girl_irl
nice password shitlord

anyway

yeah thing about certain weird twitter zones is how they're populated with p cool kinda funny & charismatic people who in time reveal personality traits & behaviors that are maladaptive and weird and gross?

that sounds super judgey but i just mean that watching drama play out like that makes me waaay uncomfy
