Re-tweet. To quote and forward someone's message on twitter through your own account.

This is usually followed by a time. This means "Reporting Time."

Example: Tomorrow's RT is 2pm
------------- Tomorrow's reporting time is 2pm.

Someone who uses this usually is extremely lazy and therefore the sentence should not come out as the above, but the below:

tmr rt 2pm

I understand how you feel at these people as I myself have come across many in my life. I believe you are not one of them, seeing you wrote your sentence in proper words, not retarded short forms. I thank you for reading this and I hope you will understand what "RT" means now. By "twitter" I am assuming you are talking about your bird. I am extremely jealous at the fact that you have a bird to remind you what your reporting time for a certain meeting is. I hope I can find a bird like this too. Is it a parrot?
