For those who Twitter and use Fetlife

[WriterDom]

There is a group called Twitter at Fetlife. A list of over 500 Fetlife people with their twitter name beside the Fet name. Clickable links. The guy willl put you on the list if you ask. It's a good way to find like minded folks at Twitter.
Most of you don't care I know but we have a few who Twitter here.

I have close to 600 followers now.

I have just plain Twitter and all of four followers LOL one of them is my kid and my kid's teacher. LAME LAME LAME.

I'm following Neil Gaimon and Laurell K Hamilton, though.

What's your user name. I'll follow you.

I was stupid and made it pretty much my real name, but missing a few letters, stupid I know. I put nothing of interest at all - car pool, PTA and crap like that. I think I'm more of a voyeur than an exhibitionist.

It took my husband about 3 months to persuade me to try Facebook.
I am so very typical stray when it comes to cyber world, you cant get rid of me day after day and then I just disappear some place else.
The word "follower" freaks me out, I like to wander around all alone without anyone following me

Well you probably don't need a guy named WriterDom following you anyway. If you have another email you can make up a kinky name for just you.

I don't like facebook for some reason.

 

[sb2009]

d'oh I should do that! sometimes I really miss the obvious solutions to things.

So what to fetlife people tweet about? Their latest scene? total orgasms a day?

 

[WriterDom]

I don't read much of it really. When you follow 600 people and have 600 following you a whole page of posts can take only 8 minutes. Met a couple of female Dommes there and several subs but no lasting friendships really. Met someone who was in the Gor shit and got out. She was pretty interesting.

 

[sb2009]

that would be interesting, to meet an ex-gor person. i just checked my account and now have several more followers...all of the 7th grade girls...I really have no clue why my kid's friends want to follow me.

As you can see in the very first posting, the amount of followers is like a currency for the lifeless. It determines your virtual market value.

She said if you are a Gor slave and your husband is at work and a Master knocks on your door and wants to fuck you, that you have to let him in and fuck him. Whatever he says you have to do. She had a Mistress who would send over a truck driver to fuck her once in a while.

 

[sb2009]

oohh, spill more of the Gor stuff...I love sci fi fantasy so much, and have never been tempted to read that (IMO) cack, but the whole lifestyle thing is intriguing...

 

[WriterDom]

That was the only juicy thing she told me.

A Mistress? What, one of those independent ones? That's funny.

 

[Etoile]

It's really not all about the followers. I follow people who interest me; I asssume I interest the people who choose to follow me.

I read somewhere that the maximum number of people you can have meaningful relationships with on Twitter is 200. I'll have to find that article again.

 

[sb2009]

i like reading what the famous people who I follow are doing...and I really don't imagine that anyone actually cares what I'm doing.

Have you seen the phone commercial where the teenagers are pissed at thier parents because they are tweeting and facebooking? it's funny.

My husband refuses to do any social networking. He sometimes looks up a Jeep board to ask for help, and that's it. His friends send me messages for him on Facebook, though. He thinks he's less of a target for The Man this way. Silly man.

God, I'd SWEAR your hubby and mine are related.

K has a facebook, but only cause I made him one so that my daughter could play farm town. He almost never goes on there. He's never posted here, or any other forum that I can think of, either.

They must have a lot in common...they both have at least similiar occupations, right? Military?

Or mabye he's the same person and leading us one with a double life!!!

Yep, K's military, but only has been for . . . 5? years. Otherwise he does construction, or will until he finishes college.

200?!?

I have somewhat meaningful relationships with about 5 and half people online, and even they tire me sometimes.
The only thing I do on Facebook is Farmville. If someone tries to chat with me I play dead. 200..... I would go nuts...

 

[sb2009]

My Facebook opened me up to invites from people I grew up with that I have no desire to see, but friended them out of morbid curiosity. Now, my page is often a battleground between the fundamentalist-right-wing element of my childhood and the left-wing-idealism of my adulthood...I'm often telling people I will unfriend them if they don't mind thier fucking manners on my fucking facebook page and shut the fuck up about Obama being a terrorist and the pope being the antichrist!

You are very tolerant. I unfriended someone this morning just because he put 2 ?? too many in some question he wanted to ask me.
I only got people on my list to get neighbors for Farmville anyway. If I want to talk to my child-or-any-hood friends I ask them out for coffee. I couldnt care less about anyone on Facebook.
God I sound so antisocial. Oh wait a minute..... I am

 

[sb2009]

actually, you sound less anti social than me - you actually meet people for coffee!!! I'm the one who has more friends online than in real life. BUT I tell myself that's because I move every couple of years. Yeah, that's it! (ok, I've lived here for five years, the longest stretch ever, but you know, it takes time....)

 

[StrayKat]

You dont want to hear how many time in past 10 years that coffee actually happened
