1. I swear the same one is following me.

I have about 10-20 suspicious characters following me. Some have one tweet and are following a thousand others. The one tweet is always a promiscuous picture of (maybe) them.

2. OK, not the same.

But the pics sure look a lot like a few others I have.

9. What do you mean a "picture of (maybe) them"???

Do you mean that there may be something fishy about hot 20-somethings being attracted to and interested in the random ramblings of a 60-something ex-machinist that self describes as smelling of cutting fluids, fish, and Ben-Gay? Who grows his hair long not because it's stylish but because he's too lazy to go to the barber? Who is required to wear a hat outdoors because both NASA and the FAA declared the reflection off his head to be a hazard to navigation? Who is required by city ordinance to discard his old tennis shoes at the Hazardous Waste Drop-Off?

You're killin' me man. Killin' me.

3. Oh, Fer Cute!

4. Are ripped up jeans still "in." I never see any around here. Maybe I should get out more.

5. I have a couple following my Tweets, too.

They all look pretty much alike, don't they. Pretty blue eyes and blonde hair. They don't seem to do anything, though, so I just leave them there to increase my follower count. All are welcome. Все приветствуются.

6. Reported as fake account

and then blocked. Every DU tweep should do likewise.

7. I have several a week that are similar follow me

I don't follow back and they eventually unfollow

Out of curiosity, a few times I've followed them back and all seem to have similar stories - they're Americans that got cheated by somebody in their family and now are stuck in either Ghana, Nigeria or Kenya and need you to wire them money so they can return to America. They also want your gmail address.

I told the one in Nigeria that I knew a prince there that could help her out - she seemed confused by that comment. And, for the ones in Ghana or Nigeria, I tell them if they give me their bank account numbers and send me $500, and I will be happy to send them back $5,000 so they can return to America in style. I think I told another one I had 11 kids by 7 women.

I know one of the "women" was using pictures of extra-busty Polish singer/model Ewa Sonnet as her own pictures as well. (I remember her because there was a "Best things out of Poland" (or something like that) thread in the DU Lounge many years back)
