If you have spent any time at all worth doing anything on twitter you have seen the name 'Jeff Tiedrich.' The allusive twitter mogul got his start on twitter in August of 2008 (@jefftiedrich). Possibly motivated by the recent economic downturn and rising political climate of the late 2000's. On June 15th, 2018 Jeff logged off and logged back in under a new @ (@itsjefftiedrich). Since then Jeff has amassed an impressive 397,000 follower. This is most likely due to the quality of his tweets. Ranging from brilliant, such as the "sir, this is a wendy's" to the extraordinary "YOMAMAGATE", its not hard to see how he acquired such a strong following. What is most impressive is not only his dedication to tweeting brutal insults and debilitating replies, but his far reaching social media sphere of influence. Not only are his followers on twitter observers of the carnage, but so are his fans on facebook and instagram. Tiedrich has dedicated himself to posting screenshots of a large majority of his tweets to other social media platforms, creating a dominating presence for all to see. But recently his existence has been called into question. Who is Jeff Tiedrich really? Does he actually exist or is he a synthetic byproduct of a bored and busy mind? This is where Chris, the online, smoking chimpanzee comes into the picture.
At 9:02 in the evening of June 11th the scurrilous boy, @kimpossiblefact, posted a discovery of an incident that had occurred nearly 12 hours prior. It was the at 9:33 AM Chris (@TonyBeast1957) made the same exact post as Tiedrich would exactly two minutes later. Possible, theorizing that Chris was operating Jeff as an alt account postulated that Chris forgot to delete his tweet in haste before posting on Jeff's account. But it was too late. The screenshots had already been taken, cold hard facts soon to be seen by the masses. The long con, finally exposed, was over. On June 12, Chris made two posts admitting to his involvement in duping hundreds of thousands of people. Exposed at last as a fraud, the smoking chimp made no effort to apologize and showed no remorse, claiming that it was an effort to dupe weak minded libs and nevertrumpers. For most, this was the end, the closure they needed to finally put the best worst account on twitter, out of there minds. But for some, this was only the beginning. The lingering question, is Chris real?
Tiedrich has made many references to the left wing site, the smirking chimp. Sounds familiar, huh? That's because Chris's avi is a smoking chimp. Few have drawn such a parallel, but those who have see something deeper. The two accounts could very possibly be a running experiment on hundreds of thousands. When everything you know to be true starts to fall apart before your eyes you cant stop asking the real questions. Are you real? Are your friends real? Is Chris real? Is Jeff Tiedrich real? To answer the last question and the theme of this article conclusively, yes he is. He is me and i am @iaminsufferable. Follow me on twitter.
