I swear it's waving at me.

[Trekker4747]

I'm sitting here reading the board, typing posts and I catch something moving out of the side of my vision. I glance over and I see the Twitter Bird there... Stationary and not doing anything just a pixelated word bubble saying "twitter" there.

But I swear that bird moves. It waves, winks, or does something. I KNOW IT. He just only does it when I'm not looking at it because when I stare at it he does nothing but as soon as my focus turns to the board...

It just moved!

I swear it did!

Stupid bird!

Mushrooms on the Friday night pizza again, eh?

Dude, the bird isn't moving, but your drinking hand might be.

From Wiki:

Physiologic nystagmus is a form of involuntary eye movement that is part of the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR). It is characterized by alternating smooth pursuit in one direction and saccadic movement in the other direction.

Nystagmus can be caused by subsequent foveation of moving objects, pathology, sustained rotation or substance use.

In police work, testing for horizontal gaze nystagmus is one of a battery of field sobriety tests used by officers to determine whether a suspect is driving under the influence of alcohol

Hardly any of that passage makes any sense.

The twitter bird is like the Viet Cong; you never see it moving, you never see it coming but suddenly it's right there.

So it's also like a Rob Schneider movie?

I think the reason you see the Twitter Bird wave is because your computer is possessed. A demon entered it somehow and is now residing at the very place the regular Twitter used to be so it does things that no-one else's Twitter Bird does. It is very evil and is trying to make you crazier than normal.

You computer needs an exorcism. If you send me $US50 I will do it for you.

 

[auntiehill]

^ $50? Hell, go for $200.

I didnt even pay attention to it at first. I thought it was the Enterprise. I thought the white talky box was the saucer section and the bird was the body. I just happened to take a good look at it and then realized what it was.

Do you also have the stupid "How many balls bouncing?" window, Trekker? If so, that's probably where your mind is getting the movement from.

I'm premium so I don't have any ads at all. Aside from the Twitter bird.

"Quoth the Twitterbird, 'Nevermore!'"

That was funny!

The bird is a PNG. Its not moving.

I was very worried about what you were going to say was waving at you. Very worried.

It's the reason I only now entered the thread. I just had to know.
