This has already fallen off the front page, so I'm not sure anyone cares, but...

Look, I put my picture onto my Twitter profile for use and recognition by the broader community. So people know who I am. I don't put it out there to be part of some (in my opinion) derivative, uninspired and shallow excuse for "entertainment".

No one puts their pictures on Twitter up for that reason.

So, if you're going to build something in a race to the bottom, at least have the common decency to tell me that you're lifting my profile picture and give me the option of getting the hell out of there. And don't use my picture until you have my permission.

Anything else is just jackassery.
