Here's The One Phrase You Can't Tweet On Twitter [EDIT: Alone]

I’ve tried to tweet “Get Better.” (without the quotes) a dozen times now, and it keeps not showing. A friend of mine told me that, while in high school, Jack Dorsey’s (the creator of Twitter) father used to spur him to work harder with that exact sentence.

If true, this would make for an awesome chapter in Jack Dorsey’s life story.

EDIT: So after a few crafty people tweeted it successfully with additional text, it looks like “Get Better.” can’t be tweeted only if tweeted alone.

Another user has mentioned it’s because it’s a command in Twitter. Which will prompt further tests. (Thanks @egon_ via @ryankuder)
