Redleg 42,156 Posted January 31, 2013 Author Posted January 31, 2013 Good Evening demonlanders. I joined twitter a few days back. Why because the number of people talking about it and using it intrigued me. So far I am totally under whelmed. Truly struggling to see the value. What piece of magic am I missing? My do you people out there use it? Aren't people who use twitter twits? Quote
old dee 24,083 Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Aren't people who use twitter twits? I have been considering that option for the last few days Redleg. In the absence of an wise guiding information from Demonlanders I am about to fall into the inactive group. You live and learn I guess Quote

My do you people out there use it? It is a conversation tool, so it is only useful if there are people there you want to converse with. Hence joining up with a group of friends or people with a common interest is the way to go. Quote

H_T 3,049 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Never heard of it. Hey Biff, if you join twitter you can receive tweets from the mighty Black Caviar. You'll drool over it. Quite frankly, I don't know how she does it so quickly having just completed her run ...? And they thought Mr.Ed was all class talking and all. BC tweets! Quote

Biffen 12,949 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 check your local library biffo much better than 50 shades of grey My wife bought that book and hasn't wanted a bar of me since. I've been using the buit up sexual tension to have juvenile arguments with Stu. I picture myself pouring hot wax all over him and then getting BBO to whip him Red and Blue. Sloonie then comes in and [censored] Slaps him till he finally shuts the frick up. It's not perfect ,but it gets me through. 2 Quote

Your right about that.By the way Biff you are almost as sad as me don't you have anything better to do on a Friday evening in February? Quote
Biffen 12,949 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Your right about that. By the way Biff you are almost as sad as me don't you have anything better to do on a Friday evening in February? Clearly not. I have just downed a bottle of 2009 Pinot ,some steak and some salad and spuds . My four year old is asking lots of "why" ,"but why" questions. I make up my favourite answers. I find that more satisfying than meeting up with my new found twitter mates . B) Quote
old dee 24,083 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 I think I am a couple of generations in front Biff GD minding duties tonight. She is fast asleep and I hope she stays that way. Only 2 and is a sweetheart You know that old joke................ If I had known how good grand children were I would have had them first boom boom 1 Quote
Longsufferingnomore 1,691 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Come on OD I will follow you,. What is your tweet address. Message me and I promise not to give out to all and sundry here. We can then have a decent conversation about how good the dees are going to be this year. Music to your ears Quote

We can then have a decent conversation about how good the dees are going to be this year. Music to your ears Rather talk to you here longsuffering Tweeting is BS in my view. Probably too old to get it. Life has taught me that occasionalyl things don't suit you. Most of the 21st century suits me fine. I have already moved on. Why is it that ever year February is the best time of the year for tragic's I live in hope that one year September will be the best time of the year. 2014 perhaps Quote
Longsufferingnomore 1,691 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Aren't people who use twitter twits? I was a virgin tweet till not long ago and find some of it interesting (Grant Thomas always controversial) and others anal (A.Maher). Quote

Redleg 42,156 Posted February 1, 2013 Author Posted February 1, 2013 Hope this is not true, but a guy at work today told me that he heard from a Doctor that Clark's injury is far worse than we are being told and that Trengove had surgery on his broken foot a week ago. Quote
Longsufferingnomore 1,691 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 But there is a photo from training on Monday this week of Jack and Mitch walking and kicking the football quite freely. If Jack had been operated on again wouldnt he be in a moon boot/crutches or just not walking around. Quote
Red and Bluebeard 2,101 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Thanks RB I have done that re the MFC and a couple of players . However so far drivel Or am I just too critical There is a lot of drivel, OD, like everywhere else on the Internet, but there are occasional nuggets that make it worthwhile. Have you tried searching hashtags of things you are interested in? (eg #bananachampagne ) Quote
Red and Bluebeard 2,101 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 What happens if you have no friends? Do you send yourself messages? Can't imagine that, BBO --- just sign up with Biff and you can tweet away to your heart's content ... Quote
Apocalypse XXXI 243 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Hope this is not true, but a guy at work today told me that he heard from a Doctor that Clark's injury is far worse than we are being told and that Trengove had surgery on his broken foot a week ago. On 3AW's Rumour File yesterday, Ross Stevenson said that the AFL was going to lay tanking charges against the MFC during the day. It didn't happen apparently. That's why they call it the Rumour File.

Hope the info is wrong as I said earlier. Quote
