'''''Animal Crossing''''' by [[Nintendo]] was one of [[Chris]]'s favorite games before ''[[LittleBigPlanet]]'' came out. Worldwide, the game has been released in four incarnations: [[Wikipedia:Animal Crossing|''Animal Crossing'']] (GameCube), [[Wikipedia:Animal Crossing: Wild World|''Animal Crossing: Wild World'']] (DS), [[Wikipedia:Animal Crossing: City Folk|''Animal Crossing: City Folk'']] (''Let's Go to the City'' for Europeans) (Wii) and [[Wikipedia:Animal Crossing: New Leaf|''Animal Crossing: New Leaf'']] (3DS).
'''[[Wikipedia:Twitter|Twitter]]''' is a popular social networking and microblogging service where people can post messages that are up to 140 characters in length. While it has had its uses, it is frequently described as a pointless fad, and if even ''Chris'' calls it a fad, perhaps there is something to this claim.


All of the games in the series involve the player character moving in a town populated by animals, doing random jobs for them to earn rent money, pulling weeds, planting trees, helping visitors, going fishing, catching bugs, filling up the art/fossil/bug/fish collections at the local museum and, in general, trying to make the town a happy place to live.  
Chris apparently had no idea why Twitter was designed the way it is designed. Most of the time, he acted as if Twitter is just a normal blog that inexplicably splits the messages into 140 character chunks for no reason. It's almost impossible to read his updates, which obviously makes following and replying to him hard.


In other words, everything Chris avoids doing in real life.

Twitter is a popular social networking and microblogging service where people can post messages that are up to 140 characters in length. While it has had its uses, it is frequently described as a pointless fad, and if even Chris calls it a fad, perhaps there is something to this claim.

Chris apparently had no idea why Twitter was designed the way it is designed. Most of the time, he acted as if Twitter is just a normal blog that inexplicably splits the messages into 140 character chunks for no reason. It's almost impossible to read his updates, which obviously makes following and replying to him hard.

On 20 June 2013 and 21 June 2013, hidden Twitter posts from 16 April 2012 to 21 June 2013, which most of them are linked to the Facebook 2013 Imgur Leak and pictures from 20 June 2013 are leaked on the CWCki Forums.
