Okay, so if it wasn't obvious enough in my last post, I'm on Twitter a lot. And, by a lot, I mean multiple times a day. Currently, I follow 106 people. A few of them are actual friends and family, and a few more of them I have actually met in real life. That's about 11 total. All of the rest of the people i follow on there are bands or YouTubers or authors or Celebrities. I'm a fan of most of these people in general. I like their work or their ideas. I know that these are people just like the ones I know IRL, and I like to hear/ read what they have to say. That being said, here comes the "ranty" part.
I get so freaking annoyed when someone tweets something like "hey, guys i just got home! super tired, how's you're day been" or "hey, ask me questions and ill answer them" or even when they just make a simple statement that would be fun to reply to and to see how others replied to it and instead, all of the replies consist of "OMG!!! your so frigging HOT!!! i luv u soooooooo much!!!" or "RT this if you love your fans in *insert country or state* WE LOVE YOU *insert aforementioned 'hot person''s name'*!!!!!"
Seriously, we get it. This person is well loved (hence all of the twitter followers). I just wish that sometimes, people would actually think before they send a tweet to someone. Honestly, what do you think is going to catch the eye more, the same message of adoration that practically everyone else is sending, or something original that shows you actually paid attention to what this person had to say. I'm not saying that this will guarantee a retweet or a reply, but think how you would feel if you were in the other person's situation.
Thanks for the variety! :)
