The Desperado's Guide to Scoring that Twitter Blue Tick: A Hilarious How-To
Ah, the coveted blue tick. That little badge of honor that separates the mere mortals of Twitter from the verified VIPs. You know, the Beyonces, the Elon Musks, the cats who play the piano (seriously, that cat is verified). But fear not, fellow tweeters, because even us regular folks can snag that elusive blue checkmark with a little effort, a sprinkle of charm, and a whole lot of...well, let's just say unconventional tactics.

| How To Get Blue Tick Verified On Twitter |
Step 1: Become a Twitter Powerhouse (or at least pretend to be)
- Content is King (or Queen, we're very progressive here): First things first, you gotta pump out tweets like a fire hose. No pressure, but witty one-liners, political commentary so hot it could melt glaciers, or live-tweeting every episode of Paw Patrol - anything to get those retweets and likes flowing.
- Master the Art of the Reply: Engage with important accounts (we're talking politicians, celebrities, your local pizza place - everyone's important on Twitter). Slide into their mentions with compliments so smooth they'd make Barry White jealous. You never know, they might just throw you a follow (and a blue tick your way, because hey, why not?).
Pro Tip: If all else fails, find a controversial topic and argue with everyone. Nothing says "engagement" like a good old fashioned Twitter brawl!
Tip: Read slowly to catch the finer details.
Step 2: Polish Your Profile Until It Shines Like a Bald Eagle's Head
- Bio Basics: Craft a bio that's a masterpiece of self-promotion. Are you a comedian, a dog walker, a champion eater of lukewarm burritos? Shout it from the Twitter rooftops! But keep it concise, folks. Attention spans are shorter than a goldfish's memory these days.
- Pimp Your Profile Pic: This is your chance to make a lasting impression. Maybe go for a professional headshot (boring!), a glamour shot of your cat (intriguing!), or a poorly lit selfie with sunglasses on at night (questionable, but who are we to judge?).
Remember: A verified profile picture is like a handshake. Make it count!
Tip: Slow down when you hit important details.

Step 3: The Verification Hustle:Desperate Times Call for Desperate Measures
- Operation Celebrity Impersonation (Not Recommended): We all know this is a bad idea, but hey, we're throwing everything at the wall here. Just remember, if Twitter finds out, your account will be faster deleted than your ex's number after a bad breakup.
- The Friend Request Frenzy: Befriend every single verified account you can find. Spam them with friend requests, bake them a virtual cake (who wouldn't want a delicious emoji cake?), slide into their DMs with your best pickup line (use with caution!). There's a chance, a very slim chance, that they'll pity you and put in a good word with the Twitter gods.
Disclaimer: This strategy has a 0% success rate, but hey, it'll make for a hilarious story at your next therapy session.
Tip: Read at your own pace, not too fast.
Here's the truth, folks: Getting verified on Twitter is tough. But with a little creativity, a sprinkle of luck, and maybe a dash of delusion, you might just snag that blue checkmark. Or, you know, you could just focus on being awesome and let the verification come naturally. (But seriously, if you do get verified, hit us up. We'd love to be your first follower. Maybe.)
Tip: Reread the opening if you feel lost.
