  • @tabounds A geek would have stayed awake studying the Periodic Table! in reply to tabounds #
  • @gedeon Yeah, I know there's a free, ad-supported version. It was more of a comment on the lack of what I'd call a basic feature. in reply to gedeon #
  • @cdulude Time for a hoodie-filled flash mob! in reply to cdulude #
  • @cdulude WTF? Even when it's *raining*? in reply to cdulude #
  • So let me get this straight, IconFactory wants $14.95 for Twitterrific for OS X and it *doesn't* have a retweet feature? #FAIL #

  • @dcorsetto You ain't ever lied. Why can't they just send you a bill like everybody else? in reply to dcorsetto #
  • A list of scifi shows that Fox has moved to Friday nights, then killed: http://www.aintitcool.com/node/43036 #
  • And this is why I have a dog – http://bit.ly/1ANyz3 #
  • Heard a rumor that Dollhouse has been canceled. FOX once again breaks our Whedon-loving hearts. #
  • Speaking of browsers, how is it 2009 and Safari still won't let me sort bookmarks in alphabetical order? #
  • I'm officially ready for a browser plugin that blocks DHTML layers. #
  • @cdulude Well, if it's an insult to you, what does it say about me, also being single? :) in reply to cdulude #
  • Whoops. One of my domains has expired. I won't say the name, lest someone swipe it out from under me. #
  • I'd put him somewhere on the spectrum between the two, but given the choice of one or the other, I say genius. #geekpoll #
  • Back from lunch with @cdulude. Nice to hang out with one of the few remaining single folks I know. in reply to cdulude #

  • "Went missing" as opposed to what? #
  • And I missed V tonight, on top of everything. Bah. #
  • Finally getting the haircut I should have gotten two weeks ago. #
  • Urgh… The light at the end of my financial tunnel has turned into a train. #
  • Bzzt! Ooo, sorry. Using your turn signal *after* you've started to turn doesn't count. Thanks for playing! #
  • @brianandmike You should play it while wearing those night-vision goggles. in reply to brianandmike #

  • @AliCat713 Hmph. Well, good luck with that teacher. We'll find a shovel and a bag of lime if it comes to it :P in reply to AliCat713 #
  • @AliCat713 WTF? Did she actually use the word? I believe I'd have a "word of prayer" with that teacher… in reply to AliCat713 #
  • @brianandmike Ha! Are they huffing glue?! in reply to brianandmike #
  • Finally got the check cashed. Had to give them the tip of my left pinky. #
  • What good is an establishment that cashes checks if they will not, in fact, cash a check? #
  • I'd call that a nap, as opposed to a good night's sleep. On the upside, I got to work a tiny bit early. #

  • Just saw "The Men Who Stare At Goats." Didn't care for it. Very little actual goat staring. #
  • A check isn't a whole hell of a lot of good if nobody will cash it… #

  • Ha! If I lived in NYC and drank coffee, I'd go here out of principle – http://tinyurl.com/ye6wwbk #
  • Somebody *please* make a FruitMenu clone for Snow Leopard. PLEASE. #

  • Damn I hate confirmation emails that take forever to arrive. WTF? #
  • It's a little disturbing that something can build up on your teeth that requires a STEEL HOOK to scrape it off. #
  • Just saw the dentist for the first time in like 16 years, and I'm shocked and delighted to report that I have ZERO cavities. #

  • Uh, did Microsoft start a horror-themed Bing advertising campaign *after* Halloween, or did I just not see it before? #
  • There's a coincidence. The guy on TV doesn't want to talk about his erectile dysfunction, and I don't want to hear about it. #
  • @madmarvelgirl But the end was the good part! in reply to madmarvelgirl #
  • Arg. Today is only the 3rd, right? Payday is so far away. Getting paid monthly blows. I'm contacting my congressman and senators. #
  • Folks, it ain't called AOL Instant Sit-There-All-Night-And-Not-Say-Anything. #
  • Also, the first episode feels a bit like recap if you saw the original V, but they got it all out of the way nice and fast. #v #
  • So, V for Verdict? Good start, but it didn't really pick up until the last 10 minutes. Will be back for more. #v #
  • Gah! Dancing With The Stars! Nooo! *dives for the remote* #
  • Galactica fans will see a familiar face in the previews for next week's episode. #v #
  • And I didn't see that coming, either… #v #
  • But I *did* see that coming… #v #
  • Didn't see that coming… #v #
  • @redefining I hope you like election results! in reply to redefining #
  • Even better, @ABC11_WTVD is shrinking the show, but not the commercials. Awesome. #idliketousethewholetvplease #
  • Hey, @ABC11_WTVD, if I want to see election results I'll look them up on Teh Internets. Stop shrinking my TV picture. #
  • Oh, Hell, it's the old "public servant doesn't have time for his/her family" cliché. #v #
  • Oh, Hell, it's the old "public servant doesn't have time for his/her family" cliché. #v #
  • Don't fall for it, kid. You'll get eaten. #v #
  • AH! There's Wash! #firefly #v #
  • First and foremost, Morena Baccarin is far superior to Richard Herd as a choice for alien spokesman. Just sayin'. #v #

  • Time for V the next generation. Who's with me? #
  • @cdulude If you want to be stalked, I'm sure you could just ask somebody. in reply to cdulude #
  • Also, I need a million of something I can sell for $1 each… #
  • I need an intern like Kramer had on that episode of Seinfeld… #

  • Hell of a day. Dodged a bullet with the car… For now. No more excitement today, please. #
  • Whew. Something flipped the emergency fuel shut off switch. Only $80. But… there's $1200 worth of work I need sooner rather than later. #
  • Damn. This would have to happen when I'm flat broke. Maybe the warranty will cover it. Otherwise, I'll have to call in a shitload of favors. #
  • @koinseb I did it a few years ago. No plans to do it again anytime soon. It's hard work! in reply to koinseb #
  • I'm at the garage now, waiting for the verdict. Meanwhile, here they are putting my girl on the truck: http://twitpic.com/o1mhy #
  • Fucking FUCK. Left work to run an errand and damned if my car hasn't died right in the middle of the road. Waiting for a tow truck now. #
  • Almost forgot, good luck to you #NaNoWriMo folks. It's worth it! #
  • @eburnette How do you know I'm not already? :P in reply to eburnette #
  • @kiloindiatango "You've taken your first step into a larger world.” #
  • @sara_brooks It's a guide to streaming video. You look up the show you want to watch and it will tell you if it's available and where. in reply to sara_brooks #
  • Almost forgot, I have some Clicker (http://www.clicker.com/) invites if anybody wants one. #
  • @cdulude Mine did! in reply to cdulude #

  • My inner monologue often sounds like Gregory House. #
  • Surreal, wrong, apocalyptic, and hilarious – http://tinyurl.com/ydtcvqk #
  • OK, so the deus ex machina at the end of the second V mini-series is almost enough to ruin the whole thing. #
  • Too late for this year, but here's software to turn your computer screen into a "magic mirror" – http://www.imagineerieing.com/ #
  • Much to my surprise, the original V holds up pretty well. Melodramatic, but not bad. #
  • SciFi channel is cashing in on the V remake by airing the original V. Let's see if it holds up. #
  • Went and got some air. I really don't feel like changing a tire Sunday afternoon. #

  • Hmm, just walked the dog and got a look at my car. I think one of the tires is going flat. Go for air now, or risk being stranded tomorrow? #
  • Oops. Wasn't looking when the clocks changed. I was like, "Damn, I thought it was 1:05 like an hour ago." #
  • Really gotta hit up Scarowinds next year. Kinda miffed about not making it this go-'round. #
  • Frank Langella Dracula FTW! #
  • @tabounds Classy. Break out the TP and eggs. in reply to tabounds #
  • Ha! NCSU Student Radio is doing War of The Worlds, but the cylinder has landed in Duke Forest. #
  • @janisamonster @tabounds Well, since I didn't expect any, I didn't buy candy. So that can be good or bad, depending on how you look at it. in reply to janisamonster #
  • Wow. Good thing I didn't expect any trick-or-treaters. It's after 7 and I've seen nary a ghost nor goblin. #

  • If I see one of these Tyler Hansbrough Performance Acura/BMW/Subaru "WOW" commercials again, I may have to kill somebody. #
  • Three days, if anybody's wondering how long it takes my acid reflux to come back after I run out of meds. #
  • @mingsmom Oh-maj? in reply to mingsmom #
  • Somebody give me a reason to break out my scythe tomorrow. #
  • *Love* going to a class or meeting and the first words out of a guy's mouth are to mention what's wrong with his computer. Fine, and you? #
  • @cdulude So you each chose to be a blurry monster? :P in reply to cdulude #

  • Had a three-hour nap earlier. Why fight it? If there's the opportunity to sleep and I *can* sleep, I shouldn't pass it up. #
  • @tabounds Tell that to OIT. in reply to tabounds #
  • Woohoo! Forgot I have money on my Dukecard. Guess who's eating on campus today? #
  • Why can't they make a dress sock that will stay up? #
  • Don't our senators having something better to do? http://bit.ly/5KSj1 #
  • @geeksdreamgirl Not anymore. We've reclaimed the word for ourselves. I think it's only offensive to those insecure in their geekiness :) in reply to geeksdreamgirl #

  • @tabounds @cdulude Did I see that what by who? in reply to tabounds #
  • Well, hello Twitter Lists… #
  • @cdulude Also, World Series in reply to cdulude #
  • @cdulude Seconded in reply to cdulude #
  • @sara_brooks Working for me, although updates seem to have slowed down. in reply to sara_brooks #
  • Love it when I'm selling on CraigsList and somebody asks if I still have the item, I reply "yes," and then I never hear from them again. #
  • @cdulude Yeah, I don't like it, either. At least OS X Mail and iCal can now talk to Exchange so we don't have to use Entourage. in reply to cdulude #
  • @tabounds Sure, why not? We can use a new system every year. The users shouldn't mind. in reply to tabounds #
  • @kyleejohnson Yep. I heard they were talking about it, then I heard they were doing it. I didn't hear the in-between. in reply to kyleejohnson #
  • This is the kind of shit that makes me want to give up IT and paint fences for a living. #
  • OIT is ditching the central calendering system that we went to so much trouble to switch to last year. Thanks, guys. #

  • Holy crap. Salman Rushdie just outed himself as a comic geek of such magnitude that he knows the difference between red and green Kryptonite #
  • Just had one of those computer problems that's like looking at a Rohrschach test. I was at least helpful in a moral support capacity. #
  • @DisruptiveShift Believe it or not, Bing actually has a specific search for iPhone apps – http://tinyurl.com/m388kz in reply to DisruptiveShift #

  • @geeksdreamgirl Ooo! What channel? in reply to geeksdreamgirl #
  • Dear GM, The GMC Terrain is Fugly, with a capital F. You boys might have another Pontiac Aztek on your hands. Burn it. #
  • Speaking of Castle, I'm not sure this was the best night to recommend it to Mom. But hey, if she can handle CSI, this should be cake. #
  • Nice Mal Reynolds cameo in Castle just a minute ago :) #
