Apparently, 14-year-old school girls and narcissists aren’t the only ones turning to Twitter for a goodtime.
According to the United Kingdom’s Sunday Express, Fred Durst (long thought dead to the world) tweeted Neil Diamond, in order to express his undivided love and affection for the geriatric heartthrob.
“I’m a huge fan of yours,” Durst wrote. “We should do a collaboration.”
To which the aging rocker responded, “I’d love to, where and when??”
Sharing a fondness for unnecessary punctuation the Limp Bizkit frontman replied in kind.
“?FANTASTIC!!!!! Incredible!! What a dream come true thanks to Twitter!!,” Durst wrote. “I’m in LA. Follow me and we can direct message.”
Scarier than the thought of a 68-year-old using a computer or a proposed collaboration between Diamond and the guy who wrote “I did it all for the nookie”, is the recently announced reunion of Limp Bizkit, who will attempt to fill the void left by their own mediocrity.
“We decided we were more disgusted and bored with the state of heavy popular music than we were with each other,” Durst was quoted saying in an Entertainment Weekly article. “Regardless of where our separate paths have taken us, we recognize there is a powerful and unique energy with this particular group of people we have not found anywhere else.”
I’m not sure what’s more pointless, having two people “tweet” to one another or writing about them doing it.
