A Twitter tantrum occurs when a Twitter user is at odds with one or more of his/her fellow Twitterers. This is typically characterized by a confrontational exchange of "tweets" during which threats are made to unfollow (block), etc.
This is not atypical behavior considering the often self-absorbed and self-serving personality traits of the participants and their insatiable need for attention and validation.

Being the self-absorbed prima donna she always has been, Chloe threw a full-on Twitter tantrum last night and unfollowed several of her most loyal followers just because they dared to challenge her on some her extremist political views.

Get the Twitter Douche mug.n. Someone who, after seeing an anti-conservative trend on twitter, tweets with the hash-tag in question with no clear knowledge of anything political. Usually will include in the tweet something along the lines of: misspelled words, inaccurate statements, blind praise of a political figure (notably praise for Obama for being black), etc. A majority of these people give other liberals who actually have valid opinions a bad name and only tweet with the hash-tag as a means to gain followers due to their shallowness.
