Secondary Twittage

One of the coolest things about Twitter is writing replies to people A LOT more famous than I am (and once every hundred times getting a reply back). I’m talking people like Wil Wheaton who have 16,000 other followers. Especially when they respond strongly positively to something I have since forgotten saying. Woot!
Is that all? Of course that’s not all! Click Here.

AND NOW A WORD FROM SOMEBODY WHO MAY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF ME...

Twittage Recycled

Life’s too short to follow twitterers who just annoy you. But if I’m the twitterer annoying YOU, we’re all better off when you waste your time. Thanks.

Most tweeted political soundbite: “Jesus was a community organizer. Pontius Pilate was a governor.” First one to make that a bumper sticker’s a millionaire.
But I firmly believe that ANYONE who uses “do-gooder” as an insult is just identifying themself as Evil. Period.
And when Michael Jackson called himself “Bad”… I BELIEVED HIM.

Seeing twittering about French Fries Sandwiches just reminds me of my tragic addiction to Chili Cheese Fries.
Del Taco Deluxe Chili Cheddar Fries: crinkle-cut fries, no-beans chili, shredded cheddar, sour cream, diced tomatoes, diced onions. Nirvana.
Nirvana including total blockage of regular blood flow, that is.

Why do I mix up WPMU with WFMU? Probably the same reason I mix up Biz Stone and Biz Markie. (yes, you need to be very pop-culturally literate and web-culturally literate to understand that)

I love it when a Conservative arguing how the U.S. isn’t so bad slips and indirectly calls Guantanamo a “Gulag”.
“…foreign nationals caught trying to kill us in Afghanistan” should be put in Gulags? You mean soldiers fighting in their homeland?

When I saw the movie “Romancing the Stone” (alone), I picked up on the term “hopeFUL romantic”. Big Mistake.

Does “Book of Biff” have a beefed-up buffer or boffo baffles or barfed-up buffets?
Wendell has waffles, whuffles, wiffle-balls, wharfs and woofs.

(re: media reports of Hurricane Gustav) The wind speed always goes up when it passes through the Associated Press. It’s a ‘hot air’ effect.

Follow me here. But not too closely, I may back up.
