Another part of my infamous series of things you have to stop doing on Twitter (soon to be a major motion picture). The other parts are here: [Part 1] [Part 2] [Part 3] [Part 4]

1. RT’ing the end of conversations between two people

There is nothing more annoying then a RT showing up in my feed that says “RT: @Person1 @Person2 HAHA, yeah it’s really dumb, right?!”. What’s dumb? I don’t know because I don’t follow either of these people. If I did follow these people I wouldn’t need the RT to see it, so please stop it.

2. Asking what everyone is up to

“What’s everyone doing right now?” is one of the most annoying tweets. I get it, you’re bored and want to interact with people but just leave that kind of crap on Facebook.

3. Tweeting the same thing over and over again

Every morning I see the same tweets “Off to work” “Ugh, Monday again” and the like. It gets boring. If your tweets are just a variation of the same tweets everyday I will unfollow you.

4. Tweeting the same thing twice

This isn’t the same as above, I’m talking about people who tweet the EXACT same thing (jokes/links) over and over again in the day. The thinking here is that by tweeting the same thing throughout the day more people will see it, but for active Twitter users like me who read every tweet in my timeline it ends up just looking stupid. I get it, your tweet is funny, but it’s less funny when I read it 5 times in 10 hours.

5. Mistaking Twitter for Google

Twitter is not Google. If it was Google it would be called Google, yet there are still people who think that it is, and if it’s not on Google it’s probably because it’s a stupid question.

6. Replying to tweets with completely irrelevant crap

Say you’re bored, so you tweet a stupid joke like “My Biggest fear is fat people”, and the next second someone replies to that tweet “Hey what are you up to”. No. No no no. You stop that right now. That is stupid and irrelevant and I hate you.
