Is it possible to be flattered and kind of grossed out at the same time?

I don't see any reason they would have to be mutually exclusive.
- Geoff Schultz
I think so. Nice compliment from a not so nice (looking or acting) person. Or a completely off the wall comment (could be lude or crude) that eludes to your looking good, being smart, etc.
- Derek Fernholz
Like when the cat drags half a mouse to the front stoop in your honor?
- XDpaul
@xdpaul great example.
- Andrew MacNeill
from twhirl
That is an awesome example rofl
- Geoff Schultz
You got my vote ;)
- Andrew Smith
Very possilbe. Could be just inappropriate time/place/comment but yet appraising one way or the other.
- Pre Priyadarshane
Now that I think about it, it seems that emotions don't have rules as to which can appear with which other ones. Good insight, Veronica
- Mot Faerin
You at least have to give the cat credit. ugly/mean person not so much

from fftogo
As a card-carrying representative of ugly people, I object to the equal low status afforded to the mean and those who are simply unattractive. We may gross you out, but our flattery is sincere!

twitter is damn fast the past few days
- MG Siegler
It has been surprisingly stable - and somewhat fast for me as well...
- Robert
Shhhhhh, you'll jinx it.
- connor

I just read this and did a little bit of sick in my mouth.
- Chris Nixon
Ya know - if Twitter got rid of all the spammers - I bet their services would actually work....
- George Smith
Yeah, I think a lot more of us are looking at FF, etc. I'm only posting on Twitter via Ping... not checking there.
- Paul Otto
I am spending a lot less time actually posting on Twitter. Right now I bounce posts starting at Ping.fm -> BrightKite -> Twitter Haven't seen a whale in a while.
- Robert Gonzalez
Does this have any correlation to Pivotal Labs doing work for Twitter? If anyone knows how to scale RoR, it's PL.
- AJ Kohn
and pownce's load times are significantly improved... what's next?
- Frankie Warren
I thought someone did post something yesterday saying that Twitter had managed to make some improvements recently.
- MiniMage TKDteacher of FF
maybe it's not crashing, but it still doesn't have IM support back yet.
- Ben Reierson
Twutter seens ti be dead, used to be getting a few hundred updates an hour now only getting like 10-15.
- Andrew Fielding
They allow for more update requests again now. Its back to 70 per hour where as it has been 20 or something for a while now. Things are looking up at last :)
- Simon Wicks
...but twitters downtime is its business model! Remember friendster?
- Vipin Chamakkala
I agree with others I think people are using it less because of the summer months, and maybe their infrastructure is better after their big $15 million dollar injection
- Jeremy Campbell
from twhirl
@Simon, where did you see that the API requests is set to 70 again? According to their status page it's still at 20.
- John Barker
It's staying up, and I'm amazed.
- Aaron Myers
...which is good to know since I just signed up. "knocks on wood"
- JA Castillo
@twitter You can do it!
- alanoakes
Awesome. I just stopped getting my text updates. Thanks for the jinx, Rose!
- Sumant Srivathsan
Please don't say that again... It could make it crash just because of the words ! :-)

@todd I think you're right, it' the friendfeed effect :)
- Markingegno - Donato
It's definitely not the FriendFeed effect, Twitter is still growing. Turns out they actually are doing stuff to fix the service. See: http://venturebeat.com/2008...
- Nicholas Molnar
@John Barker tweet deck (the twitter application) twittered about it, so im just going from them
