The­re are not only pure per­so­nal mat­ters that appear as too infor­ma­ti­ve on twit­ter but also sort of imper­so­nal.

This comes up as maga­zi­nes or orga­ni­sa­ti­ons do think they have to appear on twit­ter. I do not know anyo­ne who ever had a plau­si­ble theo­ry on the topic that orga­ni­sa­ti­ons have to go to twit­ter. But you do find maga­zi­nes and orga­niza­ti­ons the­re.

One of them is the ger­man “Fried­rich-Schil­ler-Uni­ver­si­tät” in Jena. May­be it’s just a stu­dent having fun. May­be it’s someone working for the uni­ver­si­ty lea­der­ship. May­be some geek. Who knows.

One of their tweets is this one:

In eng­lish: “The uni­ver­si­ty of Jena” is now within the top 500 list of the world’s most cited aca­de­mics in che­mis­try. Gre­at. Con­gra­tu­la­ti­ons.

Well I doubt that in a way. Is the­re a list of aca­da­mics in che­mis­try sor­ted by their uni­ver­si­ty? That would sur­pri­ze me. May­be there’s one aca­da­mic that got onto the top list of che­mis­trists. And what if you can get on such a list becau­se of making a big mista­ke?

But how come someone thinks this is a useful infor­ma­ti­on as a tweet. ‘Tweet’ seen as some­thing that’s basi­cal­ly meant for the moment. Some­thing that is dif­fi­cult to be cle­ar­ly arti­cu­la­ted. And that often does­n’t reach the ones it’s sup­po­sed to be for.

Who’s the reci­pi­ent of this tweet in the eyes of ‘jena­po­lis’? Aca­de­mics of their own uni­ver­si­ty? Of other uni­ver­si­ties? Stu­dents to come? I don’t think the­re exists anyo­ne like that in twit­ter. I keep my mouth shut as the first twit­ter user admits he’s due to that kind of tweets inte­res­ted in Jena by now. Or Che­mis­try. Or Top 500 lists.

So to me this tweet is very use­l­ess con­cer­ning infor­ma­ti­on and addres­sing.

This week’s tweet is in a way real­ly a clas­si­cal one. Twit­ter used to start with the moti­vat­ing ques­ti­on “What are you doing?”. After a while the users chan­ged their habit in ans­we­ring this ques­ti­on into ans­we­ring the ques­ti­on “What are you thin­king?”. Well that ques­ti­on isn’t far away from the for­mer. Befo­re you start doing some­thing you usual­ly think.

The ques­ti­on that comes next to be ans­we­red seems to be: “What is going on with your body at this very moment?”. A woman cal­led Ellen tells us in ans­wer to that ques­ti­on:

This is in eng­lish some­thing like “My fin­gers smell of the juice of my pus­sy: Sweet, sourly, spi­cy, deli­cous.” And it seems to be in a way part of a move­ment in ger­ma­ny . On top of their natio­nal book list is a book with almost the same topic and also this kind of juice seems to be a new form of pre­sent in ger­ma­ny.

The resent­ments of the com­mon twit­ter rea­ders con­cer­ning the­se kind of tweets are some­thing like: We’­re not inte­res­ted in the­se fluids or what anyo­ne does with them. We don’t expect anyo­ne on twit­ter to tell us some­thing about their illus­tra­ted thoughts about them.

The spe­cial thing about Ellen in com­pa­ri­son to others wri­ting about sexu­al acts is that she does not try to sell sex through twit­ter. She might want to pro­vo­ke others and find satis­fac­tion in doing so. Well, we don’t feel pro­vo­ked. We actual­ly do think she tou­ch­es a bor­der bet­ween pri­va­cy and publi­ci­ty. And she does it that way that there’s not­hing sexu­al left we want to find out about her.

That’s not bad in tac­tics.

Today Mike Ray gives us a spe­ci­fic look into the male world of com­plaints:

So, fre­quent­ly Mike gets shots into his ass. It does not seem to be that much of importance who’s shoo­ting at him or what it is, that is shot into his ass. For him the expe­ri­ence of being shot into his ass is the thing he wants to share via twit­ter.
As you can read he’s being shot into his ass more than once, but see­mingly the last time was quite a while ago. In the mean­ti­me he almost for­got that kind of suf­fe­ring. What he did not for­get in that time was the suf­fe­ring from being kicked into his balls. May­be that hap­pen­ed more often. This expe­ri­ence is so pre­sent in his mind that he thinks he can compa­re it to being shot into the ass quite easi­ly so that the rea­der will under­stand him.
What whithin both expe­ri­en­ces real­ly dis­turbs him is not the pain, but the “extre­me dis­com­fort”. So as it is not the phy­si­cal pain that dis­turbs you after being kicked into your balls, it has to be a psy­chic one. It could be a fee­ling of weak­ne­ss. The fee­ling to be kno­cked out. The fee­ling not being rea­dy to fight back imme­dia­te­ly. The fee­ling of not being a man.

Appar­ent­ly the bold­ness of get­ting shot in the ass or being kicked into your balls is the last resort of man­hood nowa­days. At least for Mike. Women somehow don’t do that or can’t do that. But the resi­dence in that resort lasts only seconds and quite quick­ly men are expel­led out of para­di­se. What a sad sto­ry.

Hop­eful­ly you have a few other hob­bies, Mike.

Within the last tweet we found out some­thing more about the world of man­hood and its challan­ges. That topic brought us to the ques­ti­on: What’s the grea­test chall­enge of woman­hood nowa­days?

Won­der­girl has an ans­wer to that ques­ti­on:

In eng­lish: We deci­ded in chick talk that we all want to fuck an emo one day.
The­se girls refer to the actu­al defi­ni­ti­on of “emo” as given in wic­tion­a­ry: “A young per­son who is con­side­red to be over-emo­tio­nal or ste­reo­ty­pi­cal­ly emo”. I used to pic­tu­re it this way:

In the old days it was a challan­ge for women to “walk like an egyp­ti­an” and other types of adap­ting dif­fe­rent roles. The­se days are cle­ar­ly over.
But how come fuck­ing an emo is one of the most inte­res­t­ing challan­ges a woman can expe­ri­ence the­se days? Are the­re more of the­se decis­i­ons done in chick talk we should bet­ter be infor­med about? Do they expect the emo to cry? Do they wan­na have someone insi­de their bed being more stly­ed then they are?

Or do I miss the essen­ti­al point of fuck­ing emo’s?
