Twitter is so much fun. I love it for networking, for catching up on articles I may have missed that someone else thinks to tweet and for exercising the latent part of my psyche that would have loved to try my hand at comedy. To wit, I present some of my own, original favourite tweets of 2012 and then some of my favourites of people I follow and admire.
It’s a comfort to know that if this radio thing doesn’t work out I can always find work singing back up for Neil Young.
Hubby cleaned out the eaves. It was his idea and he did it without complaint. But if he had complained, would that make him a guttersnipe?
Just had a meeting with hubby’s financial advisor. Turns out we’ll be able to afford duct tape to fortify our cardboard box in retirement.
We have a mouse. He joined us to watch Storage Wars. He likes Barry. Today I’m buying a trap and that gun Sigourney Weaver used in Alien.
It’s so chilly here this morning. How chilly? University students are downtown wearing shorts that cover their entire bums.
The Pope is coming out with a new book around the time mine will be published. I hope he didn’t work at a nudist resort too or I’m toast.
Not only do I kill the ant, I involuntarily scream at it and call it foul names so it’s last thought is one of self-loathing.
If the study is correct that each cup of coffee adds time to life I’m gonna be around to thaw your frozen head & see the next Venus transit.
When email goes down it causes frustration that must be like what my Grandpa felt when the outhouse paper was down to the Sears catalogue.
It’s time to accept that my generation is no longer hip. It’s hip replacement.
Patton Oswalt: So grateful for all my fans. Not embarrassed to say these three words to all of you: never approach me.
Erin Davis: At work and at home, I’m surrounded by nice guys who fart. And fart. Rob has me convinced that I’m a carrier.
Steve Martin: On the edge of my seat today. Fully expect to win “Sexiest Man Alive” due to recent hair product change.
Jim Gaffigan: When are we going to start counting unwrapping deli meat as exercise?
Louis C.K.: I wonder how many dogs it would take to kill and eat a whole cow. And has one chicken ever been smarter than another?
Thanks for the memories – loved the coffee/head thawing tweet. You’re a pleasure to follow and I am deeply humbled by the company of tweets in which you placed mine. Here’s to 140 characters or less/fewer – but the best character of ’em all – YOU! xo Happy New Year xo
