Some dude who I follow on Twitter tweeted that he was having dinner
with his wife (and it was at an expensive restaurant). Then today, he was tweeting from his church.

I'm sure this guy would be texting at a funeral service. When does it end?

Dude, put the phone away!

1. How dare you not be enthralled with every banal thought that pops into his brain.

But then again, why are you following this person (or anyone, for that matter) on twitter if you weren't interested in such things?

Just asking.

2. Actually, he is someone I met at a networking event (he owns a PR/media
firm; I'm looking for work and I was told he is someone good to know). Based on his behavior, I'm thinking not so much.

5. Twitter is worthless.
Most of the shit people "tweet" is mundane shit no one gives a crap about.

I never got into it, and I never will.

11. You must follow mundane people. Try Olbermann or Obama or Maddow
or Al Gore or NASA or news organizations, etc.
