So i use twitter on my iphone, for those who dont know twitter is a site where you have 140 characters to post something like "just saw such and such movie, was really good!" or something like that and your friends follow you and its just a neat little app on the phone i use that doesnt have any major relevance to anything.
So i post about a certain character in one of my all time favourite comic books dying in the latest issue, someone whos been there from issue one and end with "holy shit.."
i get this reply:

SWEAR JAR BOT - your swore, bad man, deposit money at this link.

Some assehole, and hes not the only one has made a macro to tell people off for swearing in a program where the only people who will read it are the ones who have actually chosen to, and therefore expect the kind of language like that from a person of that age. AND NOW THERE TRYING TO MAKE ME PAY?!?
I might be overreacting but this brings my piss to a boil, i post a message for my uni mates to read and get told off for using the word "shit"?, what the hell is this?
please tell me im not crazy and this is ruder than what i said and its a total invasion of something that is not forced on anyone.

Sounds like this is just something similar to popup ads on the computer. Distracting and annoying, but there.

You didn't actually believe you could have any kind of "online" thing without aggravating, intrusive bullshit being part of it, did you?

You're using Twitter, so... I'm afraid I have little sympathy.

twats who tweet and twitter are irritating.

i sometimes wish i'd been born in a different era where people weren't so fucking lame that they had to have instant gratification in the form of finding out what ashton kutcher had for dinner and how it made him all bloated and poopy feeling.

Hells, you are certainly not out of line...for a gay vampire!!!!! bWAHHAAA!

Sorry, bad joke...seriously, I would be annoyed by the swear jar bot crap too, just as I am annoyed by spam and popups telling me where to get Viagra for cheap.

A bit off topic: I heard that Dick Cheney is now a tweeter. I don't know, but is anyone else out there getting annoyed with hearing about Twitter and Tweeting, Iranian turmoil notwithstanding?

Oh god, I'm fed up of hearing "twittering" "tweeting" and all that similar bullshit.

Twitter is ghey, it's a rip-off of essentially the "Status" bit of Facebook, it panders to piss poor grammar, sentence structure and spelling, plus it's just fucking annoying.

"Follow us on Twitter" is also another phrase which really grinds my balls.

im the same way with all that "i have 10,000 friends on myspace" bullshit myself, but the post wasnt really about twitter, just how bloody rude it is to be told off for swearing on the internet, i mean what next "grammar_bot"?

because i'll be damned if im spelling colour without a u:lol:

no dude, thats the problem, YOU ARE, its random douche users making bots, not twitter, they post these to chastise you, its like someone at a restaurant walking up to you, waiting for you to get mid sentence and going "SHUT UP."

Its nothing to do with the twitter people and its not just twitter ive seen this on blogger and youtube as well. and its irritating as fuck.


-....OH NOES!
