If you are trying to get in touch with me on Twitter today, I apologize. I almost certainly won’t be able to see your message since my mentions are being flooded by a brigade of people with extremely fragile egos and no sense of humor.

@aaronpk on Twitter??? That just doesn’t add up.

@aaronpk You could just, like, turn off your Twitter account.

Personally, I couldn’t stand it over there and left a long time ago. Haven’t missed a thing. YMMV, of course.

@fgtech That was my approach with Facebook. I still do have friends on Twitter I would be sad to not be able to talk to though. In the mean time, my auto-blocker bot is doing a great job of cleaning things up.

@aaronpk 👍🏻

Frustrating that you had to employ a bot for relief, though. Twitter really ought to provide tools to prevent this sort of abuse.
