For those that don't know "Twats" has been a British swear word for a long time. It's a milder version of the C-word.
P.S. I think all people who use Twitter are Twats!!

It's not just the fact there are differences between the butchered American version of English and the real one. It is the fact that 90% of American's all live in the big US of A bubble and don't know the world exists outside of their microcosm.
Americans are like children still learning how to speak and sometimes not getting words or meanings straight. At some point they surely must grow up?

I don't see anything wrong with calling Twitter users 'twats' regardless of language.
There is nothing wrong with calling all Twitter users twats, because they are! However what I was pointing out was that Americans didn't know that twat was already a swear word.

Did anyone here about when David Cameron said that 'too many twits[twitter users] make a twat' on the radio? And then had to issue an apology.
All PMs put their foot in their mouth from time to time; but at least he didn't call someone a "bigoted women", now did he?

Not referring to the whole American population mate, just the 90% who don't have passports, don't have any geographical knowledge other than when they have been involved in invading a country somewhere, and couldn't say who their President is.
I know there are a few in the USA with some common sense.
The biggest thing that amazes me with any American's is that they expect you to know everything about where they come from, even the local game shows that are of no interest to anyone outside of the USA, but they have no clue about anything in the country they are currently visiting. And that is a fact for every American I've met, regardless of IQ. That is the bubble I refer to.
And before saying anything else. I fully admit that we have our fair share of idiots and twats in the UK too. But at least most of them know where France is!
