Exceptions to the rule, in the grand scheme of how many people use twitter.
What's the rule?
You describe putting jokes on twitter as "pissing in the wind" but if you keep pissing in the wind long enough the wind will change direction (or something, not sure this metaphor really works).
In comedy, no one really takes any notice of someone who does something good once or twice, what gets you noticed is doing something good over and over again.
In lots of ways it's more advantageous to be productive than to be talented.
You can make a living from churning out lots of perfectly acceptable jokes but you'll struggle to make one from one or two moments of genius.
