I don't know. There's a lot of fluff and flat-out distortions, too. I get nervous about it sometimes.

Had to glance onto his timeline since I don't follow him (for exactly that reason). His pinned tweet, this abomination: twitter.com/naval/status/8...
... it's also something about people who tweet 90% in dictation-style aphorisms that makes me uneasy.

Also note: if you sprinkle enough received wisdom into your utterances, particularly if filtered well, everything you say starts sounding like it's coming from that same fount.
But it isn't.
And I'm not saying this out of a need to be down on aphoristic writing, either. E.g. I very much enjoy , who has a similarly aphoristic style.
