My name is Anthony (”Hi, Anthony”). I’m addicted to Twitter. I scored 280 points.
I got to 125 but that was because of the toilet. Very funny.
Holy canoli.
I hit 135.
Only 60 for me, but a few of those will probably become true sooner or later…
DON’T TWEET WHILE DRIVING! It’s dangerous! Plus, I love my Twitter pals and I would hate to see them wrapped around a tree coz they’re replacing “you” with “u”.
Too funny. I actually know someone who got a traffic ticket because he was twittering.
I knew I was addicted to twitter when I changed my e-mail signature to include my twitter contact.
