Are you referring to 4chan? If so, I think Twa^Hitter is far worthier of that title.

It took me a really long time to understand twitter, but now that I finally get it, it's a fantastic service.

I quit Facebook and pretty much only use Twitter now. It's a fantastic news source.

Twa^Hitter?

^H is the escape sequence for the backspace character. Since the days of BBS it has been used to comedic effect in the manner you see here.

I guess different people have different definitions of the word 'comedic'.

^H means "backspace", so "Twa^Hitter" means <strike>Twatter</strike> Twitter.
