TWEEEET, im trying but it feels really stupid

Twitter. I see what it does but it just doesnt move the ball forward to me. I mean, facebook....you can reconnect with old friends family, share pictures, invitations, etc. Same thing with myspace although I get a middle school feeling from myspace. Anyways, Twitter feels stupid. Im eating lunch. Im picking up laundry. Im burying a body. I mean honestly, do I need to pause life to bring out my blackberry to say, "I'm going to order a gordita." Who cares honestly?

Now when Shaq tweets that he's at a restaurant and fans show up...I get it. When Obama tweets that he's bowling...I get it. When I tweet that Im trying on some underpants, I dont think anyone gets it. I dont think they want to get it. Perhaps I have low self esteem and they do. Do you? I doubt it.

Tweeting serves a purpose. CNN sends a tweet that there is a gunman on the rampage around my house. Thanks Twittering Wolf.

When there is a sinkhole threatening to swallow my car.....thanks twittering Anderson.

When the is an asteroid hurtling through space to create the next gulf of mexico with my house in the heart of it....thanks twittering Steve.

but in the grand scheme of things what the hell does a twitter about me petting my dog change anything. Buy Mr. Brewman's. Doesnt seem to tweet.

Eh, I've sent a tweet today but couldnt I have put the same damn thing on my facebook page? Dont I now need to duplicate my tweet over there so that my friends can not feel left out of my tweet to Ashton Kutcher? It's probably not Ashton Kutcher. It's probably Rob of Twitter, Inc. who has an agreement with Ashton Kutcher to ghost tweet for him so as to prop up Tweets and their tweeters so you can feel the need to tweet too. pfffggt!

I feel stupider for tweeting. The word is "snook."
