People on twitter that keep their tweets private so that only followers can see them. These people friend me, but I never friend back because I can't see their tweets to know what kind of person I am friending. At least on facebook I can see our mutual friends and the friending person's info page.
But what really irritates me about it is that I don't understand the reason. It can't be privacy because lets face it - the government (if they care about your private tweets) can probably view them just as easily as mine. Twitter is still feeding your info to advertisers and whoever else. Also, anyone that was really interested in your tweets could find someone to hack into them or probably just send you a friend request. So what is the purpose of that??? It isn't like you even have to use your real name on twitter, so you can't say you are worried about your employment or whatever else. Give me a reason!
Things that also bother me:
People that use the term "truthseeker" as their last name on twitter or facebook. Gag! It is bad enough that you won't use your real name, but to try to make yourself sound like some sort of superhero John Truthseeker is just kind of egotistical and gross. Hey, guess what? We are all truth seekers in our own way.
Lastly, people that use a deity as their avatar. Not entirely sure why that bothers me, but it doesn't matter if it is Jesus, Buddha or any other God like being - I roll my eyes at those peeps.
Obviously, nothing esoteric to say tonight. :-)
