    Guilty pleasures on Twitter

    Do you have a twitter page that you can't stop looking at. Mine is We Rate Dogs, and it cracks me up.

    Oh, this should be good.
    Thoughts of Dog (@dog_feelings) is great, to continue the theme.

    @historylvrsclub for history pictures (although admittedly some of them make me feel old).

    @joeovies for sports and beer.

    @sentantiq for Latin.

    You mean twitter isn' a guilty pleasure in and of itself?

    greatest Twitter pleasure for me is avoiding it entirely. Immensely gratifying.

    I don't know whether it brings me pleasure or not, but I also avoid it.
    "We are not provided with wisdom, we must discover it for ourselves, after a journey through the wilderness which no one else can take for us, an effort which no one can spare us, for our wisdom is the point of view from which we come at last to regard the world." --M. Proust

    Not to hijack the thread, but it's funny — I just deleted both my Twitter and Facebook accounts, and Twitter was immensely easier to deactivate and get rid of despite how much more I used it. As someone who develops software, you'd be shocked at just how much thought has gone into keeping Facebook users locked in and addicted to the service.

    I stopped checking FB before the election last year. I got tired of fact checking people's ridiculous "shares". I didn't deactivate so I check my notifications about once a month. At first, it was hard but has been great since. You don't realize what a time suck Facebook can become in your life.

    That reminds me how often I find myself saying, "that was just the perfect amount of time to spend on DBR."

    Don't let the name fool you - the 80s and 90s get their share too.
    Also includes pop culture, fashion (including hairstyles!), memorabilia, with occasional moments of seriousness and snark.

    For example, a picture of Keith Hernandez in his Mets uni, on the Sesame Street set next to Snuffleupagus:
    "Sesame Street was brought to you that day by the letters C, O, C, A, I, N, and E."

    Too freeeekalicious funny!
    Nothing incites bodily violence quicker than a Duke fan turning in your direction and saying 'scoreboard.'
