Twishitter: Because Knowing the Porcelain Habits of Fellow Tweeters is So Very Important…


Disclaimer: If this offends you in any way, I apologize. I just think this is really funny and worth sharing!

You may be looking at the title, disgusted, and thinking to yourself that no one could possibly want something like this. While I find the basis of the app humerous, I know some people simply won’t. The main purpose of Twishitter is to aggregate together all tweets concerning bathroom habits. However, due to the rampant use of “poo” words, the Twishitter timeline is actually getting clogged with bits and pieces of random tweets unrelated to actual potty time fun. Hopefully for the sake of Twishitters everywhere, they come up with a solution fast to clean up the mess. Still, you’ll occasionally get the explosion of excitement you’ve almost certainly never dreamed of.

An interesting and probably completely baseless and unscientific statement on the site says:

25% of all Tweets are Twooted via Twitter whilst the Tweeter is on the toilet…

While I’m sure a lot of us tweet while we toot, I’m not sure the 25% number is entirely accurate. If you have a sense of humor and aren’t a stick in the mud, chances are you will come to find Twishitter a comical way to pass a few minutes of downtime. If you just so happen to find bodily actions not so funny, please keep it to yourself and don’t ruin it for the rest of us.

To use it, simply include either “@twishitter” or “#poo” in your tweets, and they’ll appear in the Twishitter timeline. Of course, I’m looking at the site right now and it appears that it’s just aggregating any tweet that includes words like “crap,” which most of the time is completely unrelated. You can easily retweet Twishitter tweets from the site, or leave comments below the tweets on the site itself.

Yeah, it’s stupid, and yeah it’s gross, but at least the creators have a sense of humor.

Here’s a few choice bits from the site:

  • “25% of all tweets are twooted via twitter whilst the twitterer is on the twoilet… ~ Fartner Independent Research”
  • “When I use public restrooms, I love the thrill of tapping the feet of those occupying neighboring stalls. I also enjoy twishittering!” – Senator Larry Craig
  • “Michelle and I TwiShitter all the time from the White House.” – Barack Obama

It also, hilariously, has an ad for ExecTwshitter — ripping into ExecTweets, the Twitter service for execs that was the first third-party to be sponsored in ads on Twitter.

As far as that 25% claim, what percentage of tweets do you think occur while visiting the porcelain throne? Happy Twishittering.
