    Can you quote-tweet yourself, or is that like narcissism squared?

        The consensus seems to be that quote-tweeting is OK if you're adding new context. But that self-liking or (gasp!) self-retweeting is pure Twitter onanism.

        You can repost your own tweets but you can't like them.

        That would be Twitter onanism.

        Similar to “as I said the other day....”. Bad form.

        I think retweeting yourself (i.e. not adding any context, just going for the easy feed re-insertion) is a cardinal sin.

        Agree one hundred percent. “No seriously, this was really clever, you just weren’t paying attention”.
