They are my best feature.

Yeah, the blue check marks on Twitter are now very reliable indicators that someone is a stupid a-hole. There’s that tiny percentage of people who got the checkmarks because they had enough followers (but one tends to recognize them as someone famous), and a similarly tiny percentage of people who paid because they specifically needed the Twitter features for some income-related purposes, but it’s 90-odd percent horrible idiots. Just the worst, most intellectually incapable bigots.

Reminds me a bit of the musings of Jack Handey.
