I hate being late to a new social network or email service or anything where I have to choose a new user name. You don’t want to be the guy stuck with You1RNa1773Butch3red@coolstartup.com. You want your real name! I also hate those people who squat on awesome user names and DO NOTHING. Like these people who are taking up some great Twitter handles and have never tweeted.
BuzzFeed put together a list of 23 great Twitter handles that are being wasted away because of squatters and/or non-tweeters. Like come on, @butt, I can’t get some easy fart jokes? Or @bigdildo and @smalldildo can’t make me ROFL with masturbation stories?
This is a travesty.
Twitter needs to give these accounts to people who will do something with them. With great Twitter names comes great responsibility. Check out all the names being wasted over at BuzzFeed. [BuzzFeed]
