26 Types of People On Twitter

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at C Mich chapter.

1.        The Tweets-About-Everything Tweeter

In case you were wondering, most of your followers don’t actually care what happens every second of your day. Be careful not to take it too far Twitter users!

2.       The Sports-Only Tweeter

Everyone can appreciate personal reports on a good game, but be careful not to over do it and spend your days only Tweeting about the sports nobody else is even watching. If we wanted to know, we’d turn on ESPN!

 

3.       The Crazed Re-Tweeter

Keep it original, people. Don’t abuse the recycle Twitter sign.

4.       The Indirect Tweeter

This is the number one way to ask for drama, and the majority of the time, it’s more obvious than you think. If you want to make your problems with someone public, tag them. If not, send a text or direct message them, or what happened to face-to-face communication?

5.       The Drunken Tweeter

This is your random jumbled letters at 3 AM telling us exactly how your night is going. Thank you. It may be entertaining for the rest of us, but you’ll more than likely regret this. Do yourself a favor and turn your phone off when you’re out!

 

6.       The Daily Complainer

The pity party you’re throwing yourself… I mean, is it necessary for the world to see? Call your mom. I’m sure she’s someone who cares more than the followers you have on social media.

7.       The Checks-Followers-Daily

The possibilities of you reaching Justin Bieber’s 6 million followers is unlikely. No need to check if your 231 went to 232.

 

8.       The Weather Reporter

“You guys… It’s snowing outside!” This is pretty self-explanatory. There is no need to report the weather, we can all see it for ourselves outside the window!

 

9.       The Creep

The random pokes and messages you recieved on Facebook have followed you on Twitter… literally. Do yourself a favor and take advantage of the “block” option when dealing with this common Twitter user. 

 

10.   The Grammar-Fail

For the love of God, at least know the different between to, too, and two. WE’RE BEGGING YOU!

 

11.   The Ranting Tweeter

We’ve all done it. Every once in a while a Twitter-sode is respectable, but keep the rants to a bare minimum for the sake of your followers. 

12.   The Drama-Lover

If you find yourself spending time seeking out ridiculous Twitter drama and getting involved, go back to high school!

13.   The Parent-Tweeter

You’re the whole reason we left Facebook. Stop following us on social media!

14.   The Teacher-Tweeter

Why are you even on here? We see you enough in class. 

 

15.   The Hashtag Bandit

Relax, people. We get it.

 

16.   The Private Profile

“How funny and relatable! Let me just retwee- … Oh, just kidding…”

 

17.   The Follow-Unfollow-Follower

Do you like our Tweets or not?! Make up your mind because the constant notifications of you re-following are a waste of our time!

 

18.   The Sensitive Tweeter

Twitter therapy is free, but at the expense the sanity of your followers. Try to keep your deep thoughts at 0 or 140 characters -either is fine with us. 

19.   The Ghetto Tweeter

There are very few of us who understand what it is you’re trying to communicate. Remember grades K-6 grammar and spelling lessons, and we’ll be able to stand your Tweeting!

20.   The Comedy Star

We applaud you for making us laugh daily. You deserve every favorite, retweet, and quote.

 

21.   The Favorites-Their-Own-Tweets Tweeter

Come on, really? I know it’s tempting when you tweet something so genius, but next time… don’t.

 

22.   The Uplifting Tweeter

Sometimes we need those quotes that get us through tough days. Thanks, guys. 

 

23.   The Lovesick Tweeter

We love your relationship problems as much as the next person, a.k.a. please stop. 

 

24.   The Gym-Report Tweeter

Please go on about all the time you spend at the gym…

 

25.   The Tweets-at-Strange-Hours Tweeter

Nobody is awake… why are you?

 

26.   The Never-Tweets Tweeter

We’ve been following you for a year and your Tweet count is equivalent to the age you were in the fifth grade. Figure it out, people! We followed you to see what you have to say.
