Twishful Thinking

[andygates]

Just stumbled across Twitter 'bot IWishIWas - it seems to be a scraper for public tweets with "I wish I was" in the text, but there may be a human in there to filter out naughty or tedious tweets.  It's got a simple charm, though it's also tinged with the same sort of melancholy that you found on postsecret back in the day.

Create a new bot called IWishIWere and find yourself with only a sparse handful of tweets - but what eloquent, articulate tweetings they would be!
