Check out what I learned about myself today…
The new Twitter format now features something on the “Followers” and “Following” pages headlined “Similar to You.” And here’s what followed that on my account:

Yikes! Similar to me! Based on what? I mean, Adam doesn’t even do TPS reports any more, with or without the new cover sheets!
Not willing to accept that verdict, I refreshed, and got:

Dang! It gets worse, when you note what the constants are — the two, unshakable constants…
This is how Twitter sees me? What can I do about this? Whatever it is, I’ll get started right away…
If image is your goal why don’t you try emulating the Republican Party? This is a group of losers when it comes to actual performance yet their propaganda machine is so effective they have folks believing they are the party of prosperity. This old Wall Street Journal article pretty much destroys that myth.

That article was, of course, from the NY Times.
What’s yer problem? These are all tweeters with political news or opinion concetrations. Whom do you want to be like–The Shop Tart? Ashton Kutcher?
or were you hoping for Jeffrey Toobin/Thomas Friedman/Nick Krystof?
Now that I think about it, I don’t believe I’ve ever seen Brad and Will Folks in the same place at the same time.
The similarity is that you all write about South Carolina. The fact that you are really opposites was not considered. It is categorizing you the same way that open goes with closed. They both describe a position. You need to stop checking this. I would not want to be seen as similar to these. Quit looking.
