  • 09:31 Stevie Wonder next in terrifying McCartney Liverpudlian Death Curse. #
  • 10:30 Michael Jackson will be to my infant son what Marilyn Monroe is to me. A mythological celebrity who seemed too big and weird to be real. #
  • 10:31 @julie_mo Thanks! #
  • 10:32 @StevenKJohnson Thanks! I find that the best humor comes from being heartless and cruel. #
  • 10:36 I may have mentioned this before, but it's bizarre to me how homogenized the word "junkie" has become. #
  • 12:05 I was prepared to say Resident Evil was a boring, witless flick, but then... what was I expecting? Lawrence of Arabia? #
  • 13:00 Work internet appears to be down. And during lunch! Of all the nerve! #
  • 20:09 How does a man deal with having a half dozen crazy girlfriends? Oh, he manages. Booze helps too. #

  • 09:38 You know, I just realized that my every thought is a pithy gem of web 2.0 wisdom! How lucky you all are. Especially you, @nerichardson! #
  • 10:39 What shall I write next? #
  • 10:57 Many thanks to the Chicago Journal for the plug: bit.ly/118hTZ #
  • 10:59 @nerichardson I still call it a "quill," my dear sir! Why, just last week I switched over from stylus and wax tablet. Quite modern, eh, wot? #
  • 11:05 @alfaguru I did, but those buffoons at the publishing house gave me the flimsy excuse that "it had been written before." #
  • 15:14 I was just assaulted by a giant turtle wearing an "I GO POGO" button. I WILL NOT BE SILENCED! #

  • 09:34 @snurri I'm going with lonely idiots. I'm like Lenny Bruce. I go in, do my business, wash my hands, and leave. #
  • 09:59 At last, things will calm down. Now if only things would cool down. #

  • 11:14 I am currently on the Argentinian Appalachian Trail. There is no cause for alarm. #
  • 11:30 So, you JPEGs won't show up, eh? Well then, I'll just replace you all with GIF scabs! Ha ha ha! Die, JPEG, die! #

  • 12:13 The biggest creativity killer is hanging around with fellow artisans overmuch. #
  • 12:34 @sungenis "We need editorial cartoonists because we need them. Today's editorial cartoonists suck, except for the ones who are my friends!" #
  • 12:36 @sungenis Sorry, great link. I'm just struck by how Art S. always has to explain what we "need" to appreciate/understand about a strip #
  • 13:00 @sungenis Precisely. I find him distracting. "See? See how much BETTER things used to be? You know, back when things sucked?" #
  • 13:45 I fail to see the effectiveness of a combination periscope/colonoscopy pen, Flint. #
  • 15:39 I am amused at the euphemisms I employ when I want to utter obscenities. "Agitated" is my synonym for "pissed," for example. #
  • 15:40 Is it once again time for a secret blog? #

  • 16:05 I am not sleeping. But you're correct. I do not want to believe. #
  • 16:11 I am filled with rich, Corinthian obscenities. #
  • 16:25 I miss that rising series of electronic notes that used to begin cassette tapes. What were those things anyway? Cue marks? #
  • 16:37 @sungenis Aha! Thanks very much! #
  • 16:38 RT @sungenis They were indicators to decks equipped for it that that tape used Dolby Dynamic Noise Reduction, and to kick it in. #
  • 22:49 Okay, I'm blocking marketers, and it says they're blocked, but they're not going away. What gives? #

  • 15:38 @semibold AC installed. Our AC installed. Nate's AC installed Everybody be cool. #
  • 16:56 While @mrdankelly appreciates the effort to include him in on all the Puerto Rican celebrations, he'd rather have a quiet evening at home. #
  • 16:57 @mrdankelly is also none too fond of plastic paddy celebrations every March 17. So there. #
  • 17:05 Though, oddly enough, I don't think I'd mind the honking and cruising so much if it took place in, say, October. #

  • 10:44 I'm being a little bit bad today. Back to the grindstone, Kelly. #
  • 10:59 twitpic.com/7t369 - Angry skies over Chicago. KABOOOOOOOM! #
  • 11:08 Freaking hail, man! #
  • 11:59 twitpic.com/7t9jr - Our backyard. Hope it stops raining soon. #
  • 12:07 @xgray If I could I would gladly FedEx it all to you today. Unfortunately, you wouldn't get it until Monday. #
  • 12:31 @MisterAnnoying IT'S THE WBBMEGINNING OF THE END!!! #
  • 12:46 @MisterAnnoying And Susan Lucci won an Emmy. #
  • 13:33 @RickRReed Congratulations to you and your son, Rick! #
  • 16:10 The New Snobisme: "No, I don't use toilets. I don't even OWN a toilet. I'm FAR too busy and refined a person." #
  • 16:11 You know what I call the toilet? "The Idiot Box." #
  • 16:12 It's pathetic really. The toilet occupies such a prime position in people's homes today. It's simply a throne to bad taste. #
  • 16:14 You know what I'm tired of? All the sex and violence on the toilet. #
  • 16:18 It's disgusting that some people are actually addicted to toilets. They just sit there all day long, with a blank expression on their face. #
  • 18:37 It's not the heat, it's the fact that it's so fucking hot out. And the humidity. #
  • 19:41 Momentary terrifying cloudburst/hurricane winds caused neighbor's wires to pull away from his house in a shower of furious white sparks. #
  • 19:42 Almost ran across street to warn them, but his next-door neighbor saw it first and did so. #
  • 19:43 Foo. Toilet/television gag not as amusing as envisioned, but we only achieve new forms of humor through human experimentation. #
  • 22:18 Ah, air conditioning. #

  • 11:05 Soon I will be having lunch with my favorite niece Caitlin. I also have other favorite nieces named Kelly, Clara, and Sarah. They are cool. #
  • 11:11 @nerichardson Love it. I used to collect 60s and 70s computer music on LP. Wonder what happened to all that vinyl? Was it reissued on CD? #
  • 11:25 @semibold I am an uncle who loves all his cool nieces! And nephews too. Except for my nephew Igor. He's an asshole. #
  • 16:12 It turned into a beautiful day. What the hell is Nature trying to PULL!?! #
  • 16:14 Bob Lymph is sobbing into the overhead projector; teardrops forming fat tremulous patterns on the screen. #annoying_fake_conference_tweets #
  • 16:17 Bob Rage just made a point about successful branding by planting a fiery brand on nearby CEO's forehead. #annoying_fake_conference_tweets #
  • 16:21 Bob Trenchant, while presenting PowerPoint on search engine optimization, just achieved nirvana. Vanished. #annoying_fake_conference_tweets #
  • 16:27 Bob Drywall, after presenting on postal rates, emerged from shadows to reveal he was HITLER ALL ALONG! #annoying_fake_conference_tweets #
  • 16:34 My coyote piece will be serialized. More on this later. #
  • 22:10 @semibold Well, if you wept into a PPT you wouldn't get the same effect, would you? #

  • 09:28 I think I'm Obama obsessing too much. Mostly I'm still fascinated by all the art he's inspired. tinyurl.com/az9vkx #
  • 10:03 @TaraBusch I've always loved the fact that Warren Zevon briefly studied under Stravinsky. #
  • 11:57 Giant trombones! #
  • 12:46 @dorianwright en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Haunting_(1963_film) #
  • 12:53 @kittyireland Nah, nothing to it. Watch! Ugh! Oof! *Crash* Ouch, my head. #
  • 12:56 Wow, Obama is acting like a politician at times. Astonishing... He better shape up, because 8 golden years of Bush is a tough act to follow. #
  • 16:01 Truly, this is the numbskull generation. #
  • 16:13 Bob Hernia just made a good point about using liver bile as an incentive for international customers. #annoying_fake_conference_tweets #
  • 21:31 FIRST TWEET FROM MY NEW PHONE. #
  • 21:46 @khaosworks Obama needs a fire lit under his ass, but some folks are addicted to experiencing a constant state of agitation. #
  • 22:01 Bob Zarjazz is removing his prosthetic dong to activate the new marketing model. Brilliant stuff. #annoying_fake_conference_tweets #
  • 22:05 Bob DeLightly unveiled new SkimpCo® product. Removes kitten heads in half the time. 5 min. standing O. #annoying_fake_conference_tweets #
  • 22:07 #annoying_fake_conference_tweets are ® @nerichardson #
  • 22:11 Bob Vermouth is talking now. Still talking. Wait, now he's floating to the ceiling and spinning wildly. #annoying_fake_conference_tweets #
  • 22:12 Bob Sasquatch is talking. Now he's asking me to stop tweeting. Still asking. Angrily walking over here now. #annoying_fake_conference_tweets #
  • 22:14 Bob Venom is impacting impactful new ideas on the crowd. Five dead. Man in front of me lost an eye. #annoying_fake_conference_tweets #

  • 08:56 I enjoy cocaine peanuts. #
  • 08:57 Which reminds me of the time I wore a Morphine (the band) shirt, and a coworker asked if I was advocating its use. #
  • 09:34 I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram, on a silver black phantom bike! #
  • 10:34 Hm. Mike reminded me that it's been one year since Nate was christened. He doesn't seem particularly sinful. #
  • 11:50 Dude: Shorts and a trench coat don't look cool together. And you already sound like a babbling hipster ninny. #
  • 11:56 And your "impromptu" make-out session with your girlfriend was grotesque. #
  • 12:01 As I've aged, I've grown more tolerant of those unlike me. Sole exception: urban attention-seekers. They must be expunged. #
  • 12:17 Oddly, in Rock Band 2, you can buy "real" guitars (Telecasters, Strats, Jaguars, etc.) in the early stages--which is pretty cool. #
  • 12:18 Then, as the guitars get more expensive, they turn into goofy, weirdly shaped guitars. #
  • 12:18 I mean, why would I exchange a beautiful, vintage Gibson for a guitar that looks like a skull? #
  • 14:01 Supposed to rain through to the weekend. Bah. #
  • 14:12 I got quite a feather in my cap today! Then I realized too late that I wasn't wearing a cap. AGGGGHHHHHHHH!!! #
  • 14:13 I enjoy cocaine made from peanuts. #
  • 14:14 "You know, you're really not that funny." Fuck you, Mr. R., I'm still freaking hilarious. #
  • 22:15 @MicheBella That's an outrageous lie. I've never been modest. #
  • 22:16 @yougogetfucked Someone actually collects and tweets all the fuck yous on Twitter? Worse: Has someone created a device to do so? #

  • 10:17 I have to give a presentation today. I prepared, yet I don't feel prepared. Wish I could say more. #
  • 14:44 Presentation went well. I still feel like I want to vomit. Public speaking. Yarrggh. #
  • 16:16 Where can a hardworking fellow like myself get some brennivin and putrescent shark meat? #
  • 16:17 @sorshachen Many thanks! #
  • 19:34 @Thunderflash55 Thanks! Someone else corrected me on this when I posted, but I appreciate the info. #
  • 20:15 I need more editors to tell me my stuff is "pitch-perfect." #
