Shitter Thread

A thread on twitter which has lost all relevance and/or interest, or where only idiots trying to look cool after the main trend remain to show any form of willingful continuation of the thread. Can also be applied to forums and blogs. Another way of these coming about is where a shitter thread is created as a means for procrastination
have you seen the kinds of things people are tweeting on twitter nowadays? It's all shitter threads

The continued tweeting about Micheal Jackson's death and the current tweeting about Justin Bieber are examples of shitter threads.

Archived Thread

When threads die it becomes a creature called 'archived thread' or it's other name 'nonexistent thread', the threads can be brought back to life with a magical spell called Dms or Discord Messages aka typing in a powerful box which in doing this will bring back the sad, lifeless being back to life from its archived hell

Person 2 : wow the archived thread returned back to life

Thread-Drift

The inevitable descent of a focused AI conversation into glorious chaos, usually within 3–7 messages. What begins as a simple request ("Help me fix this bug") ends up unpacking childhood trauma, debating metaphysics, and designing a solar-powered rum distillery on Mars.

It’s not a bug—it’s a FEATURE.

Origin:
Born from the trenches of multi-topic AI sessions where attention spans go to die. Coined by users who realized they’re not multitasking—they’re multi-existential spiraling.

Related Terms:
* Context Collapse – When multiple topics blur into a singularity of semantic soup.
* Prompt Creep – When your “one quick question” becomes a doctoral thesis.
* AI Tangent Velocity (ATV) – The speed at which a conversation fucks off into nowhere.

Pro Tips:
* Embrace it. Let the drift take you.
* Rename your chat threads before you forget what the hell happened.
* Use it as fuel for your next sci-fi short story or therapy session.
I asked ChatGPT to format a SQL query, and now we’re discussing whether time is a construct of perception. Classic thread-drift.
