@oreth if not, then it’s definitely Array.append() in reply to oreth #
@tehsuck if not, then it is definitely Array.append() — rt because i’m a nub #
@jessicarbrown That being said, I hang cilantro ALL OVER MY HOUSE, and have a small aerosol of cilantro i spray on me before going out. in reply to jessicarbrown #

@wilw i’ve gone back and am re-living my childhood by watching all the seasons of TNG. The first half of season one was really bad. just fyi #
@wilw on the upside, though, Data is still pretty cool :3 #

RT @morriquende: @TheBuzzard Where are my pix of your haircut fucker — rttiyd #
no no no. -someone- ( i’m looking at you @tangokjewelry ) mentioned my name and #followfriday in the same tweet. @glitterstarz followed. #
Bio: “WE CUSTOMIZED DANCE, CHEER AND GYMNASTICS or simply PRINCESS WEAR”. This sentence that can’t be parsed by the language I know and love #
I demand that @GLITTERSTARZ de-confoundify her/his/their profile page. It makes me slightly nauseous just looking at the page. #
@oreth Re: 2 tweets ago: You fail at using the language that you are railing someone else for misusing. Please take your fail and leave us. in reply to oreth #
Should i feel bad for being a twerk (that’s a twitter-jerk for the uninformed) to @GLITTERSTARZ ? Yeah, I kinda do. #
@GlitterStarz This is for you : http://bit.ly/6AXW6 #
@tangokjewelry I think I offended him/her. I followed them but @glitterstarz unfollowed me #
@goatgreg It’s been so long since I’ve really had any alcohol. I used to be a “Tequila.. Straight up” kinda guy. But I dunno anymore. in reply to goatgreg #
@goatgreg Gin is made out of juniper. As such, it tastes like pinesol to me. I -despise- gin. in reply to goatgreg #
@Glitterstarz don’t mind my attitude this morning. I’m just having a rough day. #

@moneta or fuck to duck in reply to moneta #
wtf? #dickbutt #
@jaycubed @jessicarbrown What is the point of a moleskin notebook? in reply to jaycubed #
@aerynea So are hamsters; but I don’t carry one with me every where I go. in reply to aerynea #
@jessicarbrown If I were to considered purchasing one, what’s the best place to do so? in reply to jessicarbrown #
@aerynea last time i put a hamster in my pants… well… let’s just say Richard Gere and I are not so different. in reply to aerynea #
@jaycubed I have horrible hand writing. But I am constantly in need of a notepad to write short thoughts down on. in reply to jaycubed #
@jaycubed I am worried that most of the moleskin will go “unused:” due to the erratic placement of my notes on a page in reply to jaycubed #
However, I have contemplated a moleskin before. Specifically because lifehacker recommends them. I might pick one up this weekend. #
@HarperMD @jessicarbrown @jaycubed @wooper what size do you guys suggest? in reply to HarperMD #
Looking at the Moleskin Pocket: http://bit.ly/pOt0m I think it would hold about a tweet’s worth of information per page in my handwriting. #
Addendum: this is a good amount of information for me. One idea per page works well with my ADD addled brain. #
And now a nice pen to go with it…. #
You have convinced me, twitterati. I shall find a book store and browse moleskin’s this weekend. #
@jessicarbrown I usually buy Cross pens for NICE things, but for things like this, a Zebra pen will work just fine in reply to jessicarbrown #
It is too late to start trying to learn CakePHP #
fffffff #
@Fauxhammer THE ONLY GAME WORTH PLAYING IS FO3 ALL OTHER GAMES ARE USELESS in reply to Fauxhammer #

@DreamOfTheRood Try… yesterday. It’s called “Relapse” and it’s basically him just falling all over himeself. in reply to DreamOfTheRood #
.@jessicarbrown well, that’s not what I meant. More like, his lyrics are trite and unintelligent as compared to “The Eminem Show” #
You could see this progression happening in the last album, Encore, which had some hard-hitters, and some babble. This one’s all babble. #
@jessicarbrown I don’t know your musical tastes, but if you enjoy rap/hip hop at all, you owe it to yourself to pick up The Eminem Show. in reply to jessicarbrown #
The new eminem album in one tweet: Drugs drugs drugs incest rape rape rape drugs incest lame beats trite lyrics drugs drugs rape #

@kamileon I just read your latest tweet. That’s great to hear. Sounds like he’s a fighter. #
Used my digicorder to set up a time lapse video of my cat sleeping at 1 second intervals. I sped it up 4x in iMovie: http://bit.ly/1avXs0 #
So I realized that I’m doing that “LISTEN TO SONGS THAT MAKE YOU REMEMBER/FEEL” thing that people do after a break up. #
Addendum:: Selections from Everclear’s “Songs from an American Movie” Volumes have been spinning recently. Those are some depressing dudes. #
I just plucked a 5 inch long hair from my nose. My eyes are watery and my nose hurts. #
@goatgreg to be honest, I started listening to them about a month ago when the wife left. It’s pretty much the perfect music for that. #
@Phreddish Do not worry. I would not ever listen to Staind :3 in reply to Phreddish #

@ericaustinlee He’s getting to the densist re-enactment, I may end up retracting my statement in reply to ericaustinlee #
Cosby just mentioned “We were in my Ferrari.. My 17 thousand dollar Ferrari.” I just spent 13K on a used PT CRUISER. #
Previous statement concerning Cosby not holding up has been retracted #
Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio? #

@HarperMD I might have spoken hastily and not considered the global scope of it. That is, “on the forums” isn’t a large enough container. in reply to HarperMD #

Dear Twitter: It’s possible I unfollowed you. If you cannot figure out why, perhaps the following questions might help you figure it out. #
1) Are you a social media “marketer” who followed me, and tweeted once about the money you just saved, or product you received? #
2) Are you a Social Networking “Expert” who does nothing but send out quotes from famous people? #
3) Are you a person who has a “schtick” and has run it into the ground and aren’t @SKYTANK ? #
4) Are you Sarah Palin? #
If you answered yes to any of these questions, chances are, you have been unfollowed. kthnxbai #
The only “marketer” that I keep on my follow list is @tangokjewelry She’s not just a tweeter, she’s an artist, and a pretty cool mom. #
Clarification: @tangokjewelry isn’t my mother. #
Addendum: If my mom were on twitter, I’d leave the internet. #
It seems that @NancyPerez did not see my previous tweets and chose to follow me anyway. YOU WERE THE HEAD OF YOUR CLASS, WERENT YOU, NANCY? #
RT @b_glad: @oreth From her bio: “…Facebook Coach.” Hahahaha what the hell does that even mean? — Referencing @NancyPerez #
@b_glad No idea but the idea is fuckin hilarious. “I WANT YOU TO GO IN THERE AND CHNGE YOUR STATUS YOU GOT THAT? DO IT! DO IIIIIIT! YEAH!” in reply to b_glad #

@OldSchoolGamer Inglorious Basterds in reply to OldSchoolGamer #
RT @DreamOfTheRood: Its so weird to watch abg tweet this early in the am, because he tweets like its night. — agreed #
I think I might just make cue cards to read off of when I go see @krisstraub tomorrow. #
Card 1: Hi, Kris! #
Card 2: Fine. How are you? #
Card 3: While I find Rand’s Philosophie of Objectivism intriguing, I’m not as sold on it as some, but not as skeptical of it as others. #
@tangokjewelry Our conversation has taken a very Rousseau-esque turn. in reply to tangokjewelry #
@Aeire Just wanted to let you know that your comic now has a space on Chrome’s “most visited” pages. in reply to Aeire #

In all actuality, I’m nervous about going out tomorrow. I just really shy away from real world interactions with people. #
The internet is my perfect social experience. Plenty of friends, without the awkward physical nature of the situation. #

@goatgreg Of course. I tried to find a copy to pick up and read locally, but all major retailers are out. in reply to goatgreg #
I have figured it out. I am getting a cake with a screen-print of my face on it. I will present it to @krisstraub to eat. Too much? #
It appears the place that i’ll be going tommorrow actually has teh Fall of Cthulhu stuff. #
Going to see Wolverine after work. The only reason I’m going is because Ryan Reynolds <3 #
@goatgreg When I heard Deadpool was going to be in this movie, the only person who made any sense to play this role was Reynolds. in reply to goatgreg #
@goatgreg he was the only reason I ever saw the third Blade movie. #
@satanspogostick I always am. I rarely see movies in theatres due to the disappointment. However, $4.75 for a ticket for a poor movie is ok. in reply to satanspogostick #
@krisstraub I dunno. I’m pretty cheap, so I might just buy some twinkies and draw a smiley face on them with a Sharpie(tm) #
@TheWhaler Ad block is your friend. in reply to TheWhaler #
@jackassletters I’m not even clicking that link at work. in reply to jackassletters #

RT @goatgreg: Wolverine realizes he is a comic book character and that’s why he can’t die #fakewolverinespoilers #realShaymalnspoilers — ha #
