Twitter is a social networking website.
History[edit]
Homer Simpson didn't know what Twitter was and had no desire to find out, but he wanted Bart Simpson to tweet about everything he did.[1]
Krusty mentioned Twitter when he was told everyone looked things up on Wikipedia when they didn't understand his references.[2]
Jonathan Frink mentioned that Bart had tweeted about Homer's bed-wetting problems, and then Krusty re-tweeted it.[3]
Homer was shown to have tweeted a joke about stickers on apples.[4]
When Elijah Hooper became the new reverend, a church marquee contained a reference to the site. When Homer started to look for a missing Bart at Moe's Tavern, he told Marge to tweet him if he turned up.[5]
Lisa mentioned using Twitter.[6]
Mr. Burns purchased Twitter as a birthday present for Persephone Odair, after its previous owner crashed a self-driving Mars rocket into the International Space Station. He deleted all negative tweets about her.[7]
