what are the chances of this happening by accident?

Twitter post:

iannesrssdumpr : How great has Tina Fey been with her portrayal of Palin? I had gone away from SNL, but now am back..

The top one followed the bottom one by fewer than two minutes.

I'm gonna go look for more. Could someone be using Twitter to pimp SNL?

So that's what Lorne Michaels does all day.

Not all day. Sometimes he plays episodes from he first two years then sits and cries.

I use Tweetdeck instead of my browser, and it gives you all the "buzzwords" and "trend topics" on twitter of the last short period of time. During the elections Wii was one of them. I couldn't figure out why, but a search showed me that hundreds of people had just made identical tweets about the Wii.

I get a lot of friend erquests, but block a majority of them.

I dont befriend everyone I bump into in real life, so why should online be any different?

aaaannnndd. Now I'm following you. Thought I was already, but so hard to keep track of everyones various web identities. forum name, chat name, twitter name, etc...

I hate to say it. This is probably anti-Palin Spam. I've already had to delete some spammy anti-bush posts from the forum. I wish the tech-savvy of the Obama campaign wouldn;t manifest itself in ugly spam.
