There is a pressure when twittering to appear to be 'funny' to your friends & 'intellectual' to your work colleagues. It also helps to not appear to be a saddo and to be actually *having* a life but not so much of a life that will raise your boss' eyebrow or the vicar or whoever else might happen upon your facebook page. It's all just too much.
Many a time I start writing a twitter only to discard it. Why? They are all as mundane as each other, I can only put it down to a complex fear of rejection. These twitters languish in the drafts folder of my mobile phone. I thought I'd let them breathe here and will add to them, compare these with my actual twitters (eyes right) and it's hard to spot the difference.
"howard moon colon explorer. i love the boosh"
"bedtime reading. the complete letters of oscar wilde"
"Amazed to see a guy standing right next to a bin decide to shove his rubbish in a bush"
"ha ha. spotted some guy on the tube studying his prince2 course manual. must be his first day"
"Woah, a new bus stop has appeared on exhibition road. Long time coming"
"Just set the smoke alarms off for the first time in the new flat. Did you hear them?"
