People ask for retweets and follows from their favorite celebrities and athletes all the time, so Twitter users in the spotlight must have pretty stringent criteria for doling out these sought-after interactions.

It would be an honor to retweet your lawnmower listing on Craigslist. Be blessed. https://t.co/yVqpDDbzLn
