- Fellow Philadelphians, which hurts your ears/eyes more: ph-isms (phan, phriend, phun) or tw-words (tweeple, twittiquette, twagiarism)?

- @phillydesign ph, but I haven't encountered tw's other than "tweeps" which I'm fine with

— Kevin McKenzie (@AmusingMyBouche)Tue, Oct 14 2014 03:55:13- @phillydesign Ph. But I think it's because I'm a fan of portmanteau's. Not THOSE ones, but still.

— Paul (@paultergeist)Tue, Oct 14 2014 11:04:07 - But there's just as vocal a contingent — maybe more vocal — that feels "tw-" is more offensive
- @phillydesign TWAGIARISM? Just no. No. I was going to say phucking ph-isms but then I saw twagiarism.

— Dan McQuade (@dhm)Tue, Oct 14 2014 03:50:07 - The Phanatic has probably ingratiated the practice among sportsfans
- @dhm not even close! I think your time writing about the Phanatic has inured you

— Danya Henninger (@phillydesign)Tue, Oct 14 2014 03:51:57 - And of course, there's a way to not see any of the "twocab" at all

— Colin Weir (@radiocolin)Tue, Oct 14 2014 03:56:33- @radiocolin @vcmcguire @phillydesign's original tweet never showed up because I've long since had filters for words like tweeple, etc.

- @phillydesign oh god I am so sorry you have that as a prefix
