Boy I know I do. I wish this fad would go ahead and end, it's so pointless. Now all the athletes and celebrities have them, and they think we give a damn about their "tweets." I couldn't care less what Ashton Kutcher thinks of his cougar of a wife, or when Mark Cuban or Tila Tequila are going to take a shit. Even shows like SportsCenter are putting a spotlight on Twitter, and reliable news outlets like newspapers and radio stations are using it as a news source. What happened to picking up the phone and calling them? Just shows how far down into that bottomless pit of idiocracy our country has fallen.

reminds me of the myspace fad. a few years ago, it was freakin' huge. now, not so much. Twitter just replaced myspace. before myspace, i think Blogs were the "In Thing".
honestly, the internet has made it far easier to waste time & talk about shit that they wouldn't talk about otherwise. while the internet is great for those of us who have no social life, it also sucks in the sense that we get to hear about stuff that we wish we could avoid.
i think the internet, as a whole, has helped to bring down the intelligence of everyone (as a whole).

I don't know if I hate it per say. I just kind of ignore it as much as possible until it dies down.

people have to eventually get bored of Twitter, right? it's got to take the same course as MySpace, right? it'll eventually be taken over by kids, child molesters trying to score with the kids, while chasing away anyone that was using it for so called "legit" reasons.
either way, i try to ignore sites like that, whenever possible. i'm so sick of the fads.
