It took more than 140 characters to link to this epic Penny Arcade strip (which contains a graphical picture of a naughty word, so I'm linking to it instead of loading the image), so you may take my answer as a "no".

I swore I would never do the Tweet thing, but a friend of mine at work showed it to me today and all of the people that she follows and that follow her.
I cannot believe I'm saying this, but I signed up and am considering doing it. Not that I have much to say and I still think it's silly, but she was telling me that she twittered her parents from a really nice restaurant the other night and because they knew where she was, they had a bottle of wine sent to her table without even being there. It can pay off nicely!
