Does Twitter hassle you when you try to remove one of their celeb leeches or is it a gltich?

The nature of the tweet game... follow and un-follow. But have you ever noticed how you get hassled with this annoying pop up when you try and remove one of twitter's recommended celeb accounts? I've never had it happen un-following someone that wasn't a twitter celeb.

Is it a glitch... or twitterbitchslap?

TriggerStreet.com was one of the first social networks

@triggerstreet triggerstreet.com founded by Two Time Academy Award actor, producer Kevin Spacey and producer @danabrunetti has been reaching out and helping filmmakers and writers for years now with their online social network (some have referred to TriggerStreet as being one of the internet's first social networks) They have always striven to be on the cutting edge of technology and have now integrated twitter into their ever evolving site and community of artists. Kevin Spacey has said his goal was to send the elevator back down. TriggerStreet truly is paying it forward. I believe they are long overdue for recognition of their tireless efforts to help artists who would otherwise be lost in obscurity for lack of access to expose their talent.

Fail theatre light wiring


Got any room in there to plug in my hair dryer?
From the darkest corner of a control room we find this:  

All these extension cords on average were 35 to 50ft long in this spagetti monster mess from hell going out to power we figured over 30,000 cumulative watts of theatre lights.

 
 
 

Frayed cords taped together, corroded and loose plugs ends.
Overloaded power strips plugged into dimmer packs. Nice.
No time to wire a new pigtail? Just splice together w/blue painters masking tape & cross your fingers I guess.
Here's some of the lines go through the brick wall and into the attic of the main auditorium.
After we powered the dimmers up it came to no surprise that at least 10 of the cords were hot to the touch within minutes and my hair was beginning to bristle.

We unplugged it all, stripped it down, called in an electrician to hardwire everything. Expensive as hell? Yes?
They were lucky... it could have cost them more than money. Theaters are notorious for burning down.
