Dweet

Updated : Tuesday 2 February 2010

Literally means Drunk Tweet, or a tweet written under the influence of alcohol or some other more or less legal substance.

  • By extension, any mail or message that is out of place, shocking, aggressive, provocative, etc. can qualify as a Dweet, on the basis that ”you can’t have been in your right mind when you wrote that”. Very convenient as a way of avoiding responsibility for having lost your rag. It’s worth knowing that Gmail (the Google messaging system) offers an application that lets you check your state of mental health before sending a work email. You can only send your mail if you can pass a mathematics test. This application is to the internet what the alcotest is to the road. You can’t be too careful.
