40% of Tweets are pointless babble

[fix-the-spade]

David Cameron summed this one up perfectly.

Too many Tweets make a Twat

All Twiiter can do is make an ass of you, but even faster than an internet forum.

90% of Twitter is junk.
90% of Facebook is junk.
90% of message forums are junk.
90% of email is junk. Sorry, that should be 99% actually.
90% of YouTube is junk... okay maybe that one's only 80%, if only because that requires more talent than using a keyboard.

The point is, if you can't develop your own personal filters, you might as well just get off the Internet now.

Seriously people spend money to find out the most pointless shit

I'm pretty sure that at least 40% of regular conversation is pointless babble.

This information has changed my life for ever.

I will now look upon the world in a diffrent perspective.

 

[Asciotes]

I'd say more like 90% is. And then what isn't is people giving you links to porn sites.

 

[TheBarefootBandit]

Isn't this fad over yet?

I'm guessing no... Sadly.

 

[SmilingKitsune]

Why does everyone hate twitter so much? I mean geez, if you don't like it don't use it.
I use it every now and then, and yeah most of it is pointless babble, but that's not really a bad thing is it?

 

[Guitarmasterx7]

What kind of researchers are they hiring? any intelligent human being can tell you that 100% of tweets are pointless babble.

 

[butterkniferampage]

Terrel Owen's tweets are obviously the LEAST pointless babble ever. *sob*

 

[RetiarySword]

Trust me, its higher than 40. More like 95%

 

[Troublesome Lagomorph]

I expected 100% to be pointless. And they needed a study for this?

 

[Lord Thodin]

I thought all of Twitter was pointless babble......

 

[Ironic]

I don't see the point in twitter. I can accomplish the same thing on Facebook with my status. Also, the idea that someone else is "following" me and my tweets, scares me a little bit.

 

[Dancingman]

Umm... I don't know what else to do but say "seconded!" to the title of this thread.

 

[Aardvark]

The wonderful thing about twitter is it has given me a few more keywords to listen out for to know that I have to end a conversation with an individual, then ignore them right in their stupid faces.

 

[TheNumber1Zero]

Isn't twitter just A site based entirely around status updates?!

seriously,In my opinion,all tweets are pointless because there being done on a pointless site.

it's stalker.com

now if you'll excuse me,I'm goin bird huntin

 

[rainman2203]

I considered opening at Twitter account, adding as many people as possible, being a narcissistic prick, and making pointless updates all the time just to prove how stupid Twitter is.

Logic kicked in before I made an account. Thank you (insert preferred deity here).

 

[Marioninja1]

That's about 60% less than I thought....

(For those who suck at math LIKE ME, that's 90%)
