No disrespect intended, but all of a sudden I feel like the only person who thinks Twitter is a bit of a laugh? I was under the impression that everyone's entitled to a bit of frivolous nonsense in their lives? I didn't know the internet was only for serious, cerebral matters and sensible behaviour. OH NO! I've been doing it allll wrongggg! Mayer's tweets amuse me. I laugh at the funny ones, ponder the deeper ones and let the ones that I find a bit silly slide... I can only speak for myself, but I know I work damn hard, and stupid hours, so sometimes, my tweets are the antidote = admittedly they are for the most part farking ridiculous and borderline delirious. My friends seem to find that reasonably amusing! Most of the people I share my twitter with seem use it for short sharp bursts of nervous energy/frivolity/frustration. Or like a f/b "what are you doing"... Or like a friday night drunken chat room. Depends on the time. I find the expectation that that John Mayer spend every waking moment being brilliant and changing the world quite unrealistic and unfair.
in the end, everybody's got their own opinions about everything. i personally prefer not to waste my energy on something i clearly can't change about the man. sure i could send his mother a nice note announcing what jackasses her sons are lately but...i'm pretty sure she's known this for a solid 30 years already.
