Twelebrities. DEAR GOD TWITTER WHAT HAVE YOU WROUGHT?

I'm not talking about the average person who for no discernible reason becomes a Big Deal on the Twitters. I am speaking of celebrities who are already famous for doing awesome things and then show up on the internet in order to disappoint me over and over again in real time.

It is sad making and you guys already know about the hurt in my heart feelings place. I have no room left for this kind of emotional hullabaloo. In an effort to pay the pain forward, I give you my list of The Fames who have turned my lemonade into lemons via Twitter.

10. David Lynch

I'm not sure what I expected from Lynch- a Tweet stream of consciousness maybe? I definitely expected more midgets and velvet-covered sentences. And curtain hanging. And donuts. Mostly, all he's given me are a lot of airport updates and some links to bands playing in Los Angeles. NOT GOOD ENOUGH, MR. LYNCH.

9. Kirstie Alley

This lady is crazy with a capital straitjacket. I really wanted to identify with her body image issues and stuff, but really, her Tweets are like listening to my extended family airing their dirty laundry via poorly spelled Facebook updates - only more embarrassing.

8. Adam Baldwin

Baldwin was Jayne from Firefly and uh, I guess he's on Chuck, but I won't watch Chuck because I am tired of Hollywood pretending pretty people are nerds just because they've picked up a comic book or watched Star Wars one time. Anyway, turns out Adam is a staunch conservative, and also he will block you in the middle of a friendly debate on gay marriage. What?

7. Daniel Baldwin

Not related to Adam but very related to Alec, Steven and the other one who used to be cute. Daniel Baldwin is living here in Portland, Ore. He is also shilling for GNC, and it is god damn sad and annoying. Sometimes, he does come up with some possibly "GNC"-addled doozies. Also, he DM'd me once, which was creepy.

6. Miracle Laurie (Mellie/November from Dollhouse)

What a sweet girl but what a boring twzzzzzzzsnorthuhwhazzzzzz...

Ugh. Daniel Baldwin is also apparently "born again" and tweets about God. That puts him in the running for which Baldwin would be the worst to be trapped in an elevator with, closely behind even more tedious conservative brother Stephen.

Kirstie Alley is without a doubt one of the most immature, whacked out celebs on Twitter. She went on this insane rant against something (I can't even recall what it was) and was making the MOST atrocious spelling errors while referring to other people as being stupid. Naturally, I endeavored to help the poor girl out by recommending a return to the educational system.
Blocked. Sigh. I can no more receive Tweets from Kirstie. Woe is me.

Try reading Adam Baldwin's. Everyday is some ridiculous new link to a Conservative nutter or a conspiracy Obama's involved in.

If you're looking for random crazy British comedians to follow for jokes about jam, I can recommend Ross Noble and Peter Serafinowicz.

Twyst said:

Gah. I am so sad about #8. So sad.

Jenny said:

Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are hilarious, as are James Urbaniak and PF Tompkins. I recommend everyone follow them (because their convos with each other are hysterical). I hate people who just tweet their next talk show appearance, etc. Yawn.

I meant lemons into lemonade. SORRY INTERNET.

Kiala said:

Oh no wait, I did not.

Never mind. Shutting up now.

Why did you go and RUIN Adam Baldwin for me, Kiala? My heart feelings place is broken now. :(

Lauren said:

I've heard Adam Baldwin is a prick in real life.
I agree with you on David Lynch. Love him. Boring tweets.
Some of the best?
-Tom Hanks
-Adam Richman (from Man vs. Food)
-Pee-Wee Herman

most celebrities i've found on twitter are boring as hell. however, there are a few i do like getting updates from: amanda palmer, neil gaiman, r l stine, and most of the cartoonist persons i've come across. tho i find the level of intimacy some of them give to their twitter accounts a little worrisome...
