Do you ever take time to look through your Twitter followers? I browse through them occasionally and love to see the spammers following me. Besides the lame Twitter handles (e.g. Yang43276), the descriptions are always a dead give away. Example:

Extreme social media scholar. Bacon specialist. Travel practitioner. Subtly charming beer guru.

This is another favorite:

Food fanatic. Friendly analyst. Explorer. Music ninja. Gamer. Typical tv practitioner. Amateur alcohol evangelist.

I’m not sure what it is, but I feel the need to be a “Typical tv practitioner.”

Extreme coffee fan. Infuriatingly humble musicaholic. Award-winning twitter junkie. Certified pop culture geek.

I was impressed that @AmericaFaderl was an “award-winning twitter junkie” considering the fact that she only has 3 followers and 0 tweets.

If you find yourself being followed by spam bots or spammers, you may want to take a minute to block or report them and help keep Twitter clean.

  1. At least your spam followers spared some time to be obnoxiously creative, haha!
