Twitter Words

Spurious attempts to get a celeb on Twitter to reply to you by constructing a complicated tweet that seems either a) too clever to be ignored, b) Embarrassingly trite or c) referencing a dying relative who might just recover if their uncle / aunt / cousin got a reply. In extreme cases, the Twitterer employs sites such as ‘twittords.com’ to coin a word to try to get said celebs attention.

Examples

Concerned friend: “What ARE you doing sitting in that darkened room, wasting away, eating nothing but Pot Noodles and drinking Red Bull?”
Twitterer: “Leave me alone. I’m Fry-fishing.”

1. One who follows to try to get free publicity for their dating site / marketing guru site / sex site / etc, and who, on not being followed back, blocks you.
