  1. @scottEweinberg You've got the credibility with me that, yes, done. FOLLOWED.
  2. @Ahm76 Thanks for pulling out what should be this article's headline.
  3. Almost just unfollowed about 5 accounts from a company since they all retweeted the same 2 tweets at the same time. UGH.
  4. @EmmaFyffe !!!! Awe. Some. (You have a treasure trove of fascinating facts.)
  5. @semiprosaic Totally was Brendan Frasier. I'd tweet the text she sent trying to describe him, but too long for 140 characters.
  6. @EmmaFyffe Well, Alison Brie used to be a birthday clown, so, at least I'd be in good company.
  7. GAH. Just got shoes I ordered that were too big. So I either need to deal with returning them or finish that application for clown school.
  8. Fun fact: The actor my mom was trying to figure out from Encino Man was NOT Pauly Shore.
  9. Real text I received from my mom: "What actor starred in the Encino man?"
  10. @kumailn We'll find out soon!
  11. Really want to get a good caricature of myself done someday. Like, one that doesn't involve roller skates.
  12. @RaeBeta Ah, good point. I kind of like getting photos with people I don't see much at the END of a conversation, but midway, bleh.
  13. @RaeBeta So you just want random people photographing you who you aren't speaking with? Huh.
  14. @JeffRReid Did Cat Grant show up in New 52 yet? Get her on this for the lifestyle fluff piece version about our changing society.
  15. @JeffRReid Security camera photos of Batman with Bruce Wayne's keys! GAY LOVE STORY. NATIONAL INQUISITOR.
  16. @JeffRReid I was going to say it would be weird if someone saw Batman with keys, but not sure how Batman Inc. affects that.
  17. Comedians: If both your names are real words, we know that’a a cheesy stage name.
  18. DOMA ruled unconstitutional?! … Oh, sorry, I was worried because I thought for a second Doom and Wolfenstein 3D were ruled unconstitutional.
  19. @AmyResnick “Johanna” is a pretty grand song. But watching it may not be the best way to avoid nightmares.
