For Fun!


I have no interesting or substantive ideas to write about today, so I'm thinking I'm going to turn the comment thread of this post into a twitter feed. Feel free to reply, and then when you get responses it will be in your email. This is how real twitter works, apparently.

  1. Just when I thought I could not despise Xbox live any more, some guy who managed to get his Halo tag to look like a Klansman. I wish I were better at killing

  2. I've given this portion of the day over to listening to the kerbonkersest hip-hop songs I can find. First up: Top Back

  9. I think these replies prove that you would make a million dollars as a Twitter person. In a fantasy world were that was possible, of course.

  10. Absolutely crushed by the ladyfriend tonight at Lumines. What else is new. Sometimes I think there are rules to this game she's not telling me.

  11. @ thesimplicity : I always believed that the liberal arts would be my ticket to millionairedom.

  12. Halo is too much like golf. You have a few good holes and you delude yourself into thinking you're getting better. And then bam you're back to sucking all the time.

  13. Dear John McDowell: I would like your ideas more if you didn't write so grabastically.

  22. Loving the fact that all of Yakuza 2's dialogue is in the original japanese. Makes it feel very art house.

  24. Look, you. Just go and sign up to Twitter already. 'Cause what you're making me do is, you're making me have to WALK ALL THE WAY OVER here to read your page all the time, and sign in and everything!

  26. Good god man! You've gone completely mad. MAD I TELL YOU!

    Also, I can't seem to find the 'subscribe to comments' button that's usually around... herm... fingers crossed it does it anyway.

  27. @IroquoisPliskin You're a bit of a chatty Cathy. How do I unfollow you?

    ReplyDelete
  28. @bobby: sorry! I get a little carried away. while I don't know how to unsubscribe from followups I won't be doing this experiment forever.

    ReplyDelete
  29. In order for this experiment to work, you have to get shitfaced and say weird things to famous people. Oh the awkward @ msg's I've sent...

  30. Dear video game people can we plz come up with images for enjoyment and defeat other than ejaculation and anal rape? thx

  31. Trigger Happy is good but hilariously a child of the PS1 era. FMV is in, Crash Bandicoot is top of the pops, Lara Croft is a media-straddling colossus

    ReplyDelete
  32. @lbjeffries :man, it would be sweet to get drunk and tell Chris Remo that I am obsessed with the melodious sound of his voice.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Downloading Noby Noby Boy. Now if I could just get my hand on some drugs we should be all set around here.

    ReplyDelete
  34. IP - are you keeping to the 140 character limit of Twitter?

    I haven't managed to subscribe to the comments thread yet, either, confound it. (just found it! Wooo, I'm participating!)

    ReplyDelete
  35. I didn't anticipate that part of flOwer where I toppled the military-industrial complex.

    ReplyDelete
  36. I know that western civilization is going down the tubes and all but I do like the new kinds of pants the ladies are sporting these days.

    ReplyDelete
  37. running the Berkeley hills is great except 1. that shit will kill you & 2. the snarling aardvarks

    ReplyDelete
  38. What does it say about me that my favorite part of Yakuza 2 is chattin' up the Japanese ladies? Please, tell me more about your kimono.

  39. RT @IroquoisPliskin What does it say about me that my favorite part of Yakuza 2 is chattin' up the Japanese ladies? Please, tell me more about your kimono.

  40. That's a little Twitter joke for you.

  41. Burnout Paradise in cockpit mode is the closest I'll get to hard drugs

    ReplyDelete
  42. How the West Was Won is the best Zeppelin album ever and by extension greatest record of all time. God-damn

    ReplyDelete
  43. So, I think it's time to shut this little experiment down. It's obnoxious of me to flood Bobby's email with every occurrent thought.

    I hope y'all had fun though. We laughed, we cried, we learned how to encode hyperlinks in html, we admired the divine Ms. Padma Lakshmi, we catered to @10rdben's every whim, we retwittered, we let the beat build.

    Thanks for following! I really think we helped some people today.
