The fourth and final segment was once not very significant but now frequently features the show's fans in some way, either through their [[{{Twitter}} tweets]] or through videos they send in. These segments usually begin with Daniel describing the theme of the segment and what he did to get the fans to send in their tweets or videos, followed by showing the tweets/videos themselves. Whenever possible, the tweets/videos usually insult Daniel in some way; frequent targets include his sexuality, the perceived lack of humor in his show, and [[YourMom his mother]].

* BrickJoke: While talking about the fact that Ashton Kutcher has 2 million followers on {{Twitter}}, Daniel theorizes that part of the reason Ashton has so many followers is that he showed a picture of Demi Moore in her "granny panties". Realizing the "exploiting Demi" is the key to getting followers, Daniel shows a near-naked photo of her (which the network had to censor completely), showing off her very robust pubic hair[[note]] it was the '80s - genital grooming didn't take off until at least a decade later[[/note]]. A season later, Daniel does a segment in which he talks about "perfectly innocent" words and phrases that got bleeped because of their context, beginning with the phrase, "hair diaper".

** Historical/Situation: Early on in the show's history, during one of the first segments that involved {{Twitter}}, Daniel said he couldn't wait for Twitter to die so he wouldn't have to do those segments anymore.

Practically parodied when Daniel did a segment in which the fans could ask him questions via {{Twitter}}; five questions were shown, in a row, in which separate people had asked why he stopped showing puke every episode, each dutifully followed by a video of someone vomiting.
