I really, really have to stop twittering to the members of My Chemical Romance like I know them. It's like a sickness.

Comments

So long as you're not leaving those "I love you!" messages on their TwitPics, I think everything will be OK. ;)

[vixalicious]

Nope, none of that. And my spelling is better than 98% of those messages, so at least I can feel good about that.

[asknosecrets.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I read those messages and go "...wtf? How are you people old enough to be online?"

[vixalicious]

I'm just hoping most of them have the 'English is not my first language' excuse. However, there's absolutely no excuse for the ones tHaT tYpE lIkE tHis. Because that's just freaking annoying. And hard to do.

Unfortunately, I remember how most of my classmates (Overwhelmingly white, middle class British with a good level of education) used to type.

Hell, my own mother used to send me texts in txt spk. (I refused to answer them until she wrote it in English)

I just don't understand the need for it on a computer. Bad enough on a phone, but at least there's the excuse there of limited space. No excuse on a computer with full keyboard - how much time can it really save, and how much of a rush are people in?

(Back to the "Commenting on people's Twitters like you know them" - the way I see it, they presumably have private ones for actually personal stuff, if they've left them public then they expect people to comment, so not a big deal/problem.)

[vixalicious]

Yeah, it's not so much that I think THEY think it's a problem, just that it makes me feel a little crazy. It sort of feels like dropping the fourth wall of fandom. Oh, well, I'll get used to it!

[asknosecrets.livejournal.com]

*Nods* I get what you mean, I was trying to be reassuring. However, it is 4am, so... I think I fail at awake, nevermind reassuring.

I get what you mean about fourth wall, that's pretty interesting to think on. *pets you and your crazy* I don't think you're nutso.

[vixalicious]

Hee, thanks!! :) It's late here too, and I have to be at work in 8 hours, so I'm going to go to bed, and hope to feel less crazy in the morning :)

[asknosecrets.livejournal.com]

I have to start work in just over an hour, that's why I'm up now - I've been to bed and got back up. Blah, random hours of morning and night!

Have fun de-crazying.

I tweeted at you to ask if that was really Mikey. It's funny, somehow conversing with the Hewletts on twitter seems perfectly normal, but the MCR guys would be weird to me too.

I'm trying not to imagine Nick Rhodes on Twitter. Oh my holy.

[vixalicious]

It really is them. In all their weird, geeky glory. It freaks me out a bit.

[aecamadi.livejournal.com]

Hmm, to follow or not to follow...

[vixalicious]

Oh, I highly recommend it. If for nothing else but the coffee recommendations.

I used to talk to Marc Almond like I knew him. He survived!

OMG, I sent a fan email to Bruce Forsyth yesterday and i don't even like him!! I was just sucking up to him cos he hosts my very favourite show and I wanted a mention on tv!!! LOL!

[vixalicious]

See, I don't do that. I never have been a big one for actual interaction with famous people, outside of the few times I've encountered them at work.
