Twitter is crazy if they think anyone without API access and a financial stake is actually going to bother to listen to their brand guidelines.&lt;p&gt;One of the things that made Twitter a great brand is that end users got to kind of invent a little bit of the brand whenever they promoted their Twitter accounts on their sites and other places. It encouraged creativity that eventually extended to what the users posted on the service.&lt;p&gt;Why bow to the gods of uniformity after half a decade of freedom? With the reach of their network and the level of influence they&apos;ve built, don&apos;t they have something better to spend their time on?</text></comment>

Press rotate three times.
Press multiply many times.
Press ledge.&lt;p&gt;Result: many Twitter birds beak-planting into the ground and farting in surprise.</text></comment>
