His web site is pretty goddamn awesome.

Wow, I want to stick this guy in an octagonal cage with Alex Chiu and the timecube guy to see who would emerge victorious in a battle of the quacks.

I don't remember David Lynch posting in NC.

Him, cwalken, and therealshaq all ganged up on hawk eye that one time. 'Member?

 

[Lysistrata]

so there's no easy way to find out if someone is following you eh?

is this all about how we have a fake david lynch now? if so, i want.

Uh, you should have a followers list.

David Lynch is real. Mad real.

 

[Lysistrata]

yeah, i have a followers list, but it's not exactly easy to go through it all just to see if someone's there or not. it'd be nice if when you clicked on someone's name and it took you to their profile there was like an icon to tell you if they followed you or not.

i checked out David Lynch. didn't seem mad anything, seemed boring "now i'm in munic", "now i'm in moscow." i don't fucking care where you are, i care about what acid flashback you're having now.

unlike with most sites, you dont have to give it your twitter password (use sign in with twitter), you can see who you are following but who is not following you back for instance, and bulk unfollow those people, or see who you are not following who is following you. easy peasy.

i now run it regularly to bulk follow followers and unfollow those who've unfollowed me.

 

[Lysistrata]

neat, thanks Raj, you're so good at the internet!

altho now that i've done this i see that tyler is not following me and that makes me feel lacking in coolness.

 

[Spinsah]

I love twitter if just because the chick who wrote Ginger Snaps is making jokes about @FakeStephenHarper cheating on @petermansbridg with Not Really Gilles Duceppe.

This is the democracy the internet was prophesized to facilitate.

 

[Lysistrata]

haha, i'm following that too. 9:55 fluffer.

.

There is. If you can send them a Direct Message, they are following you, if you can't, they're not.

check your follower list?

or, go on their page and check to see who they follow>?

 

[SneakyPete]

I am thinking about starting a fake Pierre McGuire account, but I haven't checked to see if there's a real (or fake) account on there yet.

WAMMO!

 

[Stan]

Someone who I don't know mentioned me on #followfriday.

 

[Lysistrata]

of course, but those are not easy ways. i already have 2 good solutions though, Raj's and this:

There is. If you can send them a Direct Message, they are following you, if you can't, they're not.

spanks, astro!

Someone who I don't know mentioned me on #followfriday.

so what is this follow friday thing? you post tweet names of people you enjoy following so others can follow them as well?

 

[Flashy_McFlash]

Someone should do a fake Georges St. Pierre, complete with bad French accent.

"I am not himpress wit your jujitsus!"

 

[Stan]

so what is this follow friday thing? you post tweet names of people you enjoy following so others can follow them as well?

Yes, that's pretty much it. Although just posting lists of people without mentioning *why* they're worth following is pretty stupid.

 

[Lysistrata]

that's what i was thinking. for example, i might follow you and sometimes you tweet about music which is inyteresting to me but sometimes you tween about hockey which is not. so i ignore those and keeep following you for music tweets but then if you suggest someone on follow friday how am i supposed to know whether you like them because they tweet about hockey a lot or not?

 

[Rajio]

either way its stupid.

 

[Syntax Error]

Someone who I don't know mentioned me on #followfriday.

i've had that happen before. it was some marketing douche just spreading lists of names.

 

[Spinsah]

someone who i don't know, and isn't even following me, mentioned me in #followfriday. what's up with that?

 

[Michlerish]

someone who i don't know, and isn't even following me, mentioned me in #followfriday. what's up with that?

It`s a RT from someone who's following someone who's following you and mentioned you for followfriday.

Happens to me all the time, the RTer is just trying to gain followers by RTing lists of names for followfriday.

Similar to FAKE "thanks for the RT!" messages when you never RTed them to being with. Just trawling for followers.
