First time at Wolf Trap for B&S, any suggestions?

I mean, isn't one of the key points of twitter to get teh most followers?

yes, but twitter account can rack up millions of followers without anyone knowing who is behind the account.

Well what is the point of that? I ask as the dad of someone whose life goal was once to be a millionaire YouTuber.

many people want to keep their online anonymity.  being "outed" as the person behind an account can, potentially, have consequences ("wait - for years now i've been following the musical recommendations of some long-haired government-employed 50-something suburban dad??  UNSUBSCRIBE!!!").

youtube is different.  for the most part, wannabe youtube millionnaires/influencers/asshats appear in front of the camera, so at a minimum you see their face - that's one aspect of anonymity that's lost.  you don't have to disclose your identity and you can hide behind a non-identifying account name, but anyone who gains popularity will inevitably be identified/outed.

I have been on Twitter for a while….really don’t care who follows me…or who knows me…not much to hide….certainly not much to lose… anything of any import is entrusted to my partner…

this is the correct attitude.

It’s bizarre how something . . . can go off on this absolutely useless tangent

This should be our motto at the top of every page of the forum.

this is also correct.

Congrats to Starsky! I unfortunately passed despite living a mile from Meridian Hill Park because I had an important work meeting to attend. Stuart is the coolest dude on earth. Not many other stars just randomly meet up with fans and especially in DC. Stuart is the man. Lucky those who made it out.

[Starsky]

Thanks. Stuart really is the coolest…I walked up just as he was arriving…he is so down to earth….

I mean he had a flight a few hours later from Dulles..and there he is sheepishly pushing his scooter up Malcolm X Park to host a 45 minute improvised quiz show with fans…dude even brought the instructions and installation pack and showed me how to fold it

It was all a bit surreal and I am so glad it happened cause I always felt cheated of having that personal connection moment or encounter with him

Does anyone else find it problematic that the oldest guy in the picture wins a scooter?

[Starsky]

I wouldn’t bet I was the oldest …one dude was like I could of met you in 2002 but was too introverted

I will say the quiz skewed heavily towards first few years… I guess Murdoch agrees with me

This was fun! About a forty minute quiz competition before I emerged as winner…felt I could have had it a few rounds earlier..about fifteen people showed up.

looks like Stuart has acquired a new scoot
