One of these things is not like the other
I like that of the twelve people Chuck Yeager follows on twitter, one is Neil Armstrong (makes sense) and another is Ashley Judd.
Sometimes I get loud and abusive on twitter. It just usually isn’t at four in the afternoon.
Look, I know I ate a lot of rich food last night, but c’mon.

Last year Community star Donald Glover launched a Twitter campaign to land an audition for The Amazing Spider-Man, but unlike the similar Twitter movements that successfully ousted Mahmoud Ahmadinejad from Iran through the combined force of green profile photos, and Obama’s recent debt-ceiling “#compromise” campaign, and, uh… Actually, like every Twitter campaign ever, it failed.

Twitter is great for disseminating news, trivia and practical instructions on when and where to meet up in order to overthrow the government, but it also doubles as a hothouse in which viral outbreaks of witless bullying can be incubated and unleashed before anyone knows what’s happening. Partly because it forces users to communicate in terse sentences, but mainly because it’s public. Many tweeters end up performing their opinions, theatrically overstating their viewpoint to impress their friends. Just like newspaper columnists – but somehow even worse because there’s no editor to keep their excesses in check or demand a basic level of wit or ability.

Beaten to the punch (line)
I was going to make a joke on facebook about TV networks having twitter accounts, but Jon Stewart beat me to it and did a better job of it.
Still. Fuck.
