Aren't all twats in the closet? It's not like they finally 'come out' and tell their parents, "sit down, I have something to tell you both: I'm a twat."
So far as people whose twattiness is still in the balance though: Ray Winstone's a great actor, but he's in grave danger of becoming an older version of Danny Dyer in his ability to become a professional cockney at any given moment. Not quite a twat yet, but the signs are definitely showing. |

This one really pains me. I love Julian Cope from the bottom of my heart, but can't decide whether his 'arch drudisms' simply reinforce his eccentric charm, or qualify him as a bit of a twat. A tricky one this. |

People you think might be twats, not them. Good call on Flinstone, 'cause I suspect him to be a little be of a twat but I still fancy him. |

...i don't know if there's such a thing such as the closet twat, there's the lovable twat who despite being such, you still like him (probably because of the way he/she is a twat).
then there's the doubting twat, whereas you don't know the person enough to realize whether she/he is a twat or not. |

If you think that closet twats don't exist you're one of them yourself. That simple.

First off, I have enormous admiration for the man. His contribution to music is without question. However, his fan-boy excesses are in danger of becoming a tad twatty if he's not careful. Jamming on stage with every new young band on the block no doubt helps give them some much needed exposure but, to be frank, it's starting to look, if not twatty, certainly a bit creepy. Maybe if he put a bit more effort into his own band, rather than goofing off on-stage with the likes of Be Your Own Pet, Sonic Youth wouldn't be churning out insipid bollocks like Rather Ripped. Again, like Thurston I do admire Steve Albini immensely. Big Black were one of my favourite bands at the time. But increasingly, his misanthropic rantings are beginning to show hints of twatishness. What's more, those stupid Q&A sessions during Shellac gigs are a total twat-fest. And if Shellac aren't the Emo band it's ok for thirty-something record shop workers to groove to, then frankly I don't know what is. |

To be honest, I'm not that sure what a twat is in the first place. The goalposts keep changing cos people seem to refer to it in so many different ways. |

I have no reason to back up why I think he's a twat, I just think he is. I think the success of the Ipod has gone to his head. He's more of a twat then Gates at this point. |

Agreed. Atleast Gates doesn't try and pretend he's some kind of hippie spokesperson for disenfranchised liberals. Good call indeed, although personally I'd have put him straight in the twat pile.
