I told a joke on twitter and got suspended. they said I was telling people to commit suicide. I told a grown man to go "play in traffic" - do I expect a grow up to play? - do I expect him to dodge vehicles at rush hour - does the guy think I commanded him to take his life into his hands The answer is no. But, they have zero sense of humor and can target anything as being "problematic" I don't make any money off of twitter (well, not that much) so they can go suck an egg.

[@DigitalBathInAZ]

You have just commanded Twitter employees to suck an egg, which would obviously present a clear and present choking hazard, therefore you instructed Twitter employees to potentially end their lives. You are disgraceful and should be canceled at once!

You should’ve referred them to a link of a video of Kobe Bryant doing a commercial where there is a car speeding at him and he jumps completely over it without touching it. By the time he touches back on the ground, he’s completely cleared it and it’s behind him. That’s playing in traffic. And I’m sure he was told to do it. Same thing.
