This sounds likely to be caused either by an extension, or just a bug in an experiment that Twitter is running.

Please try using a fresh profile with no extensions installed (as suggested in #3). If possible it would also be helpful to know if the problem reproduces on a different computer, or with a different (perhaps brand new) twitter account.
