Zombie Tweet

A deleted tweet that is still alive due to being caught in a retweet
@flayman RT: @davidallengreen: Dear god... RT @racco: is there no “Sky” High Court to take it to? < good one :-/

in this example. @davidallengreen's original tweet (itself a retweet with a comment) is no longer alive due to him deleting it. But it still lives on because it was caught in @flayman's retweet of said tweet.

So even though the tweets creator deleted it. it's not dead. its now a Zombie Tweet

Tweet-Dropping

When a twitter user has a one-way conversation with a celebrity so that to the users followers, it seems like they are talking to a celebrity and thus are instantly über-cool in the eyes of their followers, when in fact they are a loser with nothing better to do than have a fake conversation with themselves.

Similar to name dropping IRL, but even more annoying and even less likely to be true.
Tweet-Dropper: @BritneySpears How did the barbecue go? I heard Justin Timberlake was there too >.< awkward?

Tweet-Dropper (A few minutes later, without a reply from Britney): @BritneySpears Haha yes, I suppose after a while it got pretty normal for both of you, you must go to loads of the same things!

Tweet-Dropper (Again few minutes later, still without any replies from Britney): Yeah, it's been great! How do you squeeze so much into 140 chars lol? =P

Tweet-Dropper's Follower: Wow, this guy I'm following is having a conversation with THE Britney Spears!

Tweet-Dropper (To self): They are totally falling for my Tweet-Dropping!
