The Best of Alec Baldwin's Now-Dead Twitter Page

Hannah Miet

Alec Baldwin, prolific tweeter and anti-paparrazi activist, (who is also -- we've heard -- an actor), quit Twitter on Monday. His parting words: "It's been fun."

While Baldwin did not deactivate his account, he changed it to @ABFalecbaldwin, or the "Alec Baldwin Foundation twitter page." We're not sure exactly how much this will change things. He quit Twitter once before, after raging against American Airlines when he was kicked off a flight for playing "Words with Friends," and quickly returned. But we don't want to get our hopes up, expecting raging (often hilariously raging, occasionally also poignantly raging) tweets that the never come. So instead, let's remember the good times (via Baldwin's Facebook page, which also contains his old tweets):
