Whenever I use Twitter, I usually ignore the ability to "Favorite" my favorite tweets because IA) don't have very witty or interesting friends,
B) am fighting my compulsive habits to collect and horde digital information, and
C) have a slight grudge against using "Favorite" as a verb.
That said, I sometimes use this ability to mark off times when I get reply tweets from relatively famous people (Ingrid Michaelson, Lauren Leto, Danielle Corsetto, etc).
Mostly, however, I just use it to mark down my brilliant, Jack-Handy-like ideas for later. Here are some of them:
- "I think the physical health benefits of drinking Miller's MGB 64 are offset by ordering a beer that makes me look like a fucking pussy."
- "Has anyone else ever noticed that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad looks remarkably like every third player on a European soccer team?"
- "Bisexuality is a lot like veganism. It's great if that's really who you are, but fuckin annoying if it's just for attention."
- "We live in a wonderful time. Most Sci-Fi movies indicate we've either missed the apocalypse or it's a full generation away."
- "American Apparel ads do not make me want to wear American Apparel clothes. It makes me want to sleep with American Apparel models."
- "Some people have over-active bladders. I just have an overwhelming urge to stand in front of porcelain."
- "Those who call beer pong "Beirut" are the same people who call soccer 'futbol.'"
- "If you practice kissing in a mirror you will never miss, but you'll never learn to tilt your head either."
- "It bothers me that there are 11 tracks on Pearl Jam's 'Ten.'"

I am witty AND interesting
ReplyDeleteAlright, FINE. Both Dean and Alaina are interesting people, worthy of being starred on Twitter.
