Please stop doing that. It's bad for the world.
Please stop caring. Its bad for your blood pressure. Seriously, it's only Twitter. Conflict, famine, and poverty are bad for the world, but Twitter doesn't matter.

For the sake of pointing out the obvious, Twitter already is mostly useless. Anything the previous poster can do to destroy the remainder, I'm all in favor of.

You're a waste of space. I hope your accounts all get suspended. Witty and inspirational quotes? Wow, I guess your followers should feel blessed to find themselves at the receiving end of your awesome RSS'ed wisdom.

You should be angry at twitter. They have made a spammers paradise. Any blame should rest with them IMHO.
Even without this bug, I dont think they should still allow commands via tweet at all. It made sense when most tweets were via SMS, but not anymore...Maybe for emerging markets with heavy SMS usage, add a 2nd number to send commands to isolate the two?

Obviously, their so called "cleanup" is incomplete, at least for me :)
Felicia Day is still following me. ^-^
