      Yup. I occasionally repost after gaining more followers than the number I had the last time I posted the tweet

          Since you always have more followers than before, doesn't that mean you should repost it every 30 seconds?

          "Occasionally." Not every single time.

          But I guess he only reposts it once in a few weeks/months, so that's way less than "occasionally" :P
