No, because this is a contradiction.

Twitter by its nature is a set of comments. If I obey the Twedict, then I have already read an internet comment and failed its instruction. Any other comments I read would merely compound the sin.

I'm not a fan of random dictators, so I shall not be down with this clown. Nevertheless, I keep a certain limit to my comment consumption over the work day. If I've spent too long reading comments (especially on Fark), I realize I'm avoiding work and got scared of being productive.
