So I was browsing through my verified followers, as you do. Because always want to make sure I follow back the good peeps. And, eh, I noticed this. 👀
surely shum mishtake, I said to myself. Errr. Not only that. I don't follow this person with 5.7m followers, and her name is familiar to me, but I don't know why. Don't @ me.
Anyways, apparently I didn't follow back, because I'm a nerd and didn't notice. Or I was drinking Guinness (or Murphy's) at the time. Anyways... moving on
(Sorta secretly hoping said person doesn't see my tweets and realise I'm subtweeting (in a nice way) about them. Because I may have just had two, sorry, three, pints of Murphy's)
After some googling it turns out I know the Smile song (but never knew who sang it). Is there a switch that gets flicked when you get to a certain age and you don't know who sings what?
Oh! Not Fair is a lovely song! Didn't know who sang it either. 🤦‍♂️ This is most embarrassing. Is there a word for embarrassingly asymmetric Twitter relationships you didn't know you had?
This is too much embarrassment for one night. Plan is a) follow back since it's polite b) pretend I'm cool c) not fret over my inane tweets since said person followed me... *checks notes*... ages ago. d) go to sleep.
