I don't have a Twitter account.
I'm even going to shut down my FB account, I'm tired of friends telling me "I'm about to have lunch, and this is a picture of my burger", or "watching Sex and the City, love SJP!"

There must be more to life than this...

I mostly subscribe to comedians & funny people. Here are some of the ones that have made me laugh:

Tom Scharpling / Gary The Squirrel (he may have more too)
Jon Wurster
Andy Richter
Albert Brooks
Swazz Perkins (funny local dude I know)
Edgar Wright
Patton Oswalt
John Hodgman
Garry Shandling
Michael Kupperman - highly recommended
David Wain
Michael Ian Black
Both Tim and Eric
Sarah Silverman
Danny DeVito
Kaitlin Olson
Mindy Kaling
Rodney Anonymous

The next category is visual artists - I like to try to keep tabs on new work, books, shows. The tweets aren't really entertaining though.


I guess the third category would be science stuff:
NASA
SETI Institute (just in case they tweet that they found something)
Skeptics Guide
Neil deGrasse Tyson
(There's a few more science writers, journalists and skeptic dudes in there too - but these are the ones who post the most stuff I'm interested in.)

Oh yeah - and I subscribe to Roger Ebert on everything. Despite anything you might think about his opinions/reviews I highly recommend following him on facebook/twitter if you love movies.

I just added a bunch of names from you guys - so thanks all!

Oh - and I just realized that my Dad is following me. Weird.

Andy Richter is hysterical on twitter.

Andy Richter is hysterical on twitter.

Yeah - he's really got the format down. A lot of comics I like just aren't that funny in a line or two - or they only use Twitter to promote things. He's great.

I noticed Bob Odenkirk joined recently. He'll probably be good.

I'm not signed up for twitter or facebook. But I do lurk Hasbro's and Mattel's Facebook pages.

[ScottA]

I FB but don't tweet. I've never even looked at Twitter.

Had to go check as I don't do a lot of twittering. I have personally made a whopping 2 tweets so far. Here is my list;

Brian Urlacher
Sarah Silverman
James and Sunda (the TV show)
Vanessa Carlton
Sunda Croonquist
Melissa Rivers
Chicago Bears

Probably an odd list but I am an odd person.

People are saying they don't like social media - but this forum IS a social media platform. I don't really have a point, I'm just sayin'...

But yeah, I almost never use twitter to tweet or communicate with people. For me I just like seeing the feed, getting some laughs or info. I use Facebook to socialize and communicate.

Yeah, I have one friend who uses twitter to communicate, it always kind of stops me in my tracks.

I do check toy companies official FB pages every once in awhile to check for toy news and pics of upcoming releases.

I'm going to start a thread called "Hey Brunette people, what do you think of this?" just to see how many people post "I'm blonde" and then get into an off topic discussion of male pattern baldness.
