Follow me...

It kept on chirping and chirping in my ear with a high-pitched shrieking voice. One similar to the voice Kate uses to scream at her kids to be quiet in the background because they are disturbing her interview.

In fact, this dang bird was doing more than just chirping...it was tweet-tweet-tweeting non-stop. I could swear that I kept on hearing a creepy little voice saying, "Follow me! Follow me!". It reminded me of the Gollum's voice and I even imagined his little grubby hands updating his tweets on UberTwitter. His tweets would most likely involve just cursing out the other guys for destroying his precious ring or asking around to see if anyone else can make a new one.

Nonetheless, I have finally joined Twitter and I'm curious to see what fun adventures await me. Especially since I've always referred to tweets as glorified Facebook statuses. You and me both will find out. Yet, only time will tell...

However, I've been thinking about of a list of people I'd like to follow if they had a Twitter account. These esteemed people are:

1. Peter Griffin. Hands down the dumbest and funniest cartoon dad around.
2. Michael Scott from The Office. Also The Michael Scott Paper Company. Ah, what a simple, yet profound guy.
3. Dwight Schrute, also from Dunder Mifflin. No comment. Except freaking hilarious dude!
4. Dalai Lama. Or any monk. Someone who doesn't speak for a long period time must have a lot of pent-up things to say. Maybe even pent-up angry/funny/depends on how you interpret them/but still funny things to say.
5. OJ Simpson. Perhaps through his continual tweeting, he may one day slip up and we may indeed find out if he's guilty or not.
6. Chuck Norris. Only to know if he's about to roundhouse kick anywhere near my vicinity so I could move.

Well so begins another year, decade and crazy adventure...
Oh, you can foll find me on there at here....

or @loosecannondave

So it begins...
Aargh!


P.S. I've always told my friend and fellow blogger LiLu that she would be one reason I'd join Twitter. To simply follow her hilarious and entertaining texts. You should definitely follow her too @LivitLuvit

I'm fighting the urge each day to resist joining.

I have always been a strong anti-Twitterer because I believed they were nothing more than glorified facebook statuses. Isn't the Book of Faces not enough already? I still had a hard time up to this day trying to see the relevance. Yet, I think I've begun to see the light more or perhaps it's just an evil, mind-controlling but cute little, blue birdie whispering in my ear, " Follow me..."

RT @twitteruser "Your daily life is NOT as exciting as you think".

The Verizon ad with the dad on the couch tweeting that, guess what?!, he's sitting on the couch is hilarious. They don't know how much they hit the nail on the head with that one. It seems the majority of people who tweet do exactly this. Just this.
