http://gizmodo.com/5914534/the-most-magical-event-in-twitter-history-just-happened The Most Magical Event in Twitter History Just Happened Drake is a stellar 25 year old Canadian rapper, who enjoys things like wine spritzers and $6,000 socks. T. Boone Pickens is an old white Texan oil billionaire, like something from a cartoon. Twitter just made their worlds crash. Drake, in a suitably Drake moment of self-reflection, tweeted that "The first million is the hardest." Helpful for the rest of us—apparently the dude has made some money? Are you impressed? T. Boone Pickens, who apparently follows Drake on Twitter, sure isn't, replying "The first billion is a helluva lot harder" with a mic-drop retweet. At this point Drake's laptop screen probably exploded in his face, but he was able to reply with some (deserved) humility: "@boonepickens just stunted on me heavy." Yes he did. There has never before been a point in history when a young black guy rich off of Canadian soap operas and luxury super-rap could exchange words with a quasi-eccentric super-rich octogenarian who loves wind power. Now they can—in public. And that, simply, is awesome. Moreover, Twitter has now peaked and concluded, so pack your things and stop reading. It's been fun! [Thanks, Spiros!]
I saw that **** last night. **** was funny. I checked to see who T Boone Follows, and I don't think T Boone follows Drake, but I guess he RT'd it. **** was awesome and funny.
You really gotta hand it to youngish middle class white guys, they're really the only people on earth in any point in history who could understand both of these separate but equal worlds.
Your not going to score a date with Drake for pulling the knight in shinning armor AKA heyp on clutchfans. Give it a break it's 9 am.
It's not. Who told you it was? Gizmodo? It's not CNN or ESPN. I'm really disliking all these people who "follow" twitter people just to see what gossip they have. It's like everyone is trying to outdo each other and they are becoming more robotic. No one is there "tweeting" any value. I was about to open up an account for myself to help people with something substantial, but now I am not sure about that. At least Drake was a gentleman in accepting a wise quip.
T. Boone puts it in perspective. Drake shooting for the moon . . . T.Boone shooting for the Whole solar system Rocket River
