kirsten Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 One reason I am easily amused by Twitter:Stephen Fry announces he's stuck in a lift and posts this TwitPic - Share photos on twitterHe later announces "We're free! Nice men from Thyssen freed us. Paramount Club had champagne for us at the bottom. I'm allergic, but nice thought x"Some time later, Graham Linehan announces that he's going to bed. Then a minute later says, "Help! I'm stuck halfway up the stairs!" followed swiftly by "Send engineers! http://twitpic.com/1bhr8" then "I'm ok! And my wife gave me a bottle of rice bran oil. I'm allergic but still... http://twitpic.com/1bi17" And Richard Herring posts "Will no one rescue Stephen Fry? Is the whole world just sitting back and reading about it and doing nothing?" and "Phew he's out. And allergic to champagne. Oh my God, I'm a stalker. It feels good."Later, some guy posts this: TwitPic - Share photos on twitter Why am I giggling too much? May be the rum... or Glinner's face in those pictures.-edit- shiiiit, double post. Apologies. Bed time, I think. x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 I'm finding it very annoying. Can i turn it off?Yup. When it pops up when you make a new post just check the "Always..." checkbox and don't post the message to Facebook. You'll never be prompted again.

kirsten Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 I think I'm well and truly in the pro-Twitter camp now. It's shameful, but Bad Film Club makes me excited: Be part of a ‘Happening’ Why, That’s Delightful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
