How do you use Twitter in your professional life?
I do not understand this question.
What's your favorite Twitter app?
Twitter or Facebook?
Twitter. I hate Facebook.

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Is there someone you want to follow you who doesn't already? If so, who?
Have you ever unfollowed someone? Who and why?

You should vote for me because I like votes.
Terms you wish would start trending on Twitter right now?
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
What's the most interesting connection you've made through Twitter?
I realized that John Capodice, the guy from the 1980's Polly-O string cheese commercial is the same guy who plays Sgt. Aguado in Ace Ventura.
Hashtag you created that you wish everyone used?
#WhenWillTheseQuestionsEnd?
How do you make your tweets unique?
All of my tweets are executed under water.
What inspires you to tweet?
Ever get called out for tweeting too much?
140 characters of advice for a new user?
Use forty instead. Much more efficient.
How long can you go without a tweet?
Sometimes very long when I forget to tweet.
What question are we not asking here that we should?
Would you like another question or are you done answering questions?
How do you imagine Twitter changing?
Who do you admire most for his or her use of Twitter?
Who is the funniest person on Twitter that you follow?
What is one of the biggest misconceptions of Twitter?
That it is easy to understand.
Why should people follow you?
The REAL question is...why SHOULDN'T people follow me? Take THAT shorty face!
Can you name some one-of-a-kind Twitter accounts that you follow?
How do you decide what to tweet?
It is a very intricate process involving a picture of Bill Murray and a bucket of wacky wall walkers.
Why'd you start tweeting?
Has Twitter changed your life? If yes, how?
Twitter has not changed my life. But the monkey butler I got for Christmas this year. That changed my life.
What do you wish people would do more of on Twitter?
More of those upside down text ones. Those get me every time.
How will the world change in the next year?
Well, where I live it will get warmer in the next few months and then cold again a few months after that.
What are some big Twitter faux pas?
The ones that are longer than 140 characters.
What will the world be like 10 years from now?
It will be just like now, only 10 years older.
