whats the point in twatter er i mean twitter??

i had a look at it once but i fail to see any reason to bother with it ...... i mean you have so few characters available to you how the hell are you supposed to say anything worth saying? it seems to be populated by far too many retards who either can't spell or use text speak *ugh* ..... text 'speak' is my pet hate .... how did the world end up in such a sad state that even saying ok has been shortened down to just k! is it really too much effort to type a r e rather than r?? i mean i am a lazy bastard but that's just sad ...... though i suppose it makes it easy to hide just how stupid you are if you speak in gibberish! personally though i just think it makes you look like a twat =oD
