When I first started my Twitter account, I referred to “Tweets” as “Twits.” A few people emailed me noting that a Twit had a different definition, and by golly it did. Your Dictionary explains:
….a foolish, contemptible person
Sarah Palin has created a mini-political firestorm with her Tweets about a Muslim mosque being planned in NYC.
And, yes, these qualify as…Twits.
