  • RT @porksmith: All I'm hearing is MIchael Jackman this, and Michael Jackman that… #
  • @richjohnston Wait what? in reply to richjohnston #
  • @XanderBennett That's a bit horrific and awesome, isn't it? I saw it this morning and it rocked my world. in reply to XanderBennett #
  • Mollie Sugden has died! http://twurl.nl/vndo71... Oh man. I suspect @thepetshopboy, @philkirby & I talking AYBS the other day contributed. #
  • @Glinner I absolutely love Jason, but I never think I will. Despite previous experiences. It's weird. in reply to Glinner #
  • @RedMummy Wait, what? in reply to RedMummy #
  • Karl Malden is dead as well? It's like an apocalypse of bygone celebrities who I hadn't thought about in years but now oddly miss… #
  • I ain't never had no karma but bad karma no-how, @philkirby… let it come. LET IT COME! #
  • @philkirby It's a bit nuts, isn't it? The Japanese, they aren't quite like us! in reply to philkirby #
  • @Glinner Do I live in your brain? I… don't THINK I do! But it would certainly explain a lot. in reply to Glinner #
  • @Glinner …There are a few more novelists than comic people I feel that way about, tho. Magnus Mills, I'm never sure of, for example. in reply to Glinner #
  • @Herring1967 Are you just worried that he'll get through all the ones whose shows are still in repeats, move onto the unfairly overlooked? in reply to Herring1967 #
  • Celebrate 10 years of Moonfruit and win a MacBook Pro http://bit.ly/96bxC #moonfruit (Because you're worth it. & I'm shameless) #
  • @brubaker Huh… That's odd. That sentence almost perfectly fits into a conversation I was just this second having. Hm. in reply to brubaker #
  • @Herring1967 Again, I question the value in a) Them unfollowing so publicly & b) Blocking. Blocking seems a little like overkill… in reply to Herring1967 #
  • @Herring1967 … It's the Twitter version of a restraining order, & what sort of nut gives someone who wasn't in their space one of those? in reply to Herring1967 #
  • Wait, what the fuck? Is this a nose-bleed? #
  • RT @iamjamesward: Mollie Sugden has died; exposure to sunshine, moonlight & good times ruled out: coroners say cause of death was 'boogie' #
  • @iamjamesward I still don't really understand the "Block" tactic. Unfollow would seem to suffice. That chap brought along too much firearm. #
  • http://twurl.nl/epldyv – “Fast-route.co.uk? Arse-route.poo more like!” #
  • http://twurl.nl/epldyv – Vince Noir – not the ACTUAL Noir I think – had a great crack at Dan Lester's recent cock picture, in the EW forum. #
  • I think Isabel Monteiro just left a comment at Nixsight – http://twurl.nl/g6wgv0 – Far too fragile a moment to spoil seeking verification. #
  • @RedMummy You should totally tell him so! in reply to RedMummy #
  • @RedMummy It's in the forum, so you'd need to log in to the forum. Or register on the forum and then log in. Or something. in reply to RedMummy #
  • @belle_lulu NO ONE is a teenager like what they are. in reply to belle_lulu #
  • @belle_lulu @SorenLorensen Having worked for years in an FE college, I can reliably announce that they don't. Your teenage years are intact! #
  • RT @zdarsky: My alternate history novel, "What if Michael Jackson had Lived?" is coming along pretty well. #
  • @marcellerby Morpheus? in reply to marcellerby #
  • @marcellerby Heh, perfectly acceptable. I was just dissapointed – scooted over there looking for pictures of the comic artist muppet. in reply to marcellerby #
  • That isn't how you spell disappointed. #
  • Langridge is 1 of my favourites, @marcellerby – I need to post the sketches he's done for me again, soon. My 1st original art purchase, too! #
  • Before I'd bought more than an odd issue from him, tho, he always remembered my name each year, which I thought was SO classy. @marcellerby #
  • @marcellerby And I actually don't think he has the slightest clue how good he is. in reply to marcellerby #
  • @cyborgturkey That was incredible. With the length of it, you wouldn't expect them to need such fast cuts. Enjoyed the MJF & Eligius bits. in reply to cyborgturkey #
  • Dammit! Sorry, @thepetshopboy. Mollie Sugden was Mrs Slocombe in Are You Being Served? Or to put it another way: http://twurl.nl/6ck7ym #
  • I actually HATED Are You Being Served? But I kind of loved the theme: http://twurl.nl/dnmn7p. Wonder if this is why I love list songs… #
  • One more book till I can put this post about small-press comics I bought at Bristol out & move the fuck on. It is one book that can wait… #
  • @iainlee I'd LOVE a fight, but I've already had my quota of celebrity deathmatches this week… in reply to iainlee #
  • http://is.gd/1lhYo – Oh my…. Absolute genius via uh… @philkirby @thepetshopboy @johnnymidnite, I guess. It's the smoke! #
  • @ruckawriter What games? in reply to ruckawriter #
  • Some days, everything seems like a White Whine entry. #
  • @Herring1967 The only way to get virgilioanderson to trend that hard is going to be if he dies. Hmm… in reply to Herring1967 #
  • Oh, god… so yesterday was all about @caitlinmoran's cosmic yoni, & today's going to be all about @Herring1967's baby bags. GREAT. #
  • I think @ronskanky pinned a piece about the changing face of humour on Mrs Slocombe's Pussy, @philkirby & @thepetshopboy… #
  • Now imagining @Herring1967's potential rage if #virgilio becomes a bigger trend than #virgilioanderson. Almost worth the effort to do… #
  • @ruckawriter Sorry, you tweet that later in my timeline. Swashbuckling RPG, right? I miss the brief period of RPGing I did years back… in reply to ruckawriter #
  • @ruckawriter …You get a good game runner, & the rules become almost irrelevant, don't they? in reply to ruckawriter #
  • @jamesclay I SHALL ANSWER YOUR QUESTION WITH A QUESTION… What is the point of talking? And Red Bull. in reply to jamesclay #
  • @dailyecho Wait, what? How did the dog get away if it was tied up? Are they fighting dogs (I had no idea… quite like the breed)… in reply to dailyecho #
  • @dailyecho …& that behaviour is quite odd, isn't it? Poor woman. Also poor dog – it's a confused dog that lets you stroke it then attacks. in reply to dailyecho #
  • @thepetshopboy I'm pretty much unfazed by her. Don't think it's Piper's fault, necessarily – someone else thought she could carry the story. in reply to thepetshopboy #
  • @thepetshopboy …Though I can still appreciate what Rose is supposed to mean in that universe. Mind, it's diluted by others. in reply to thepetshopboy #
  • I actually think David Tennant had better chemistry with Catherine Tate than Billie Piper. #
  • @thepetshopboy Heh… if Jessica Simpson was on Dr Who, Girl One would sure as fuck want to watch it! in reply to thepetshopboy #
  • @RedMummy Heh… It's impressive, actually, that Tate managed to make Donna seperate from all that. in reply to RedMummy #
  • @RedMummy Also, Rob Brydon changed his twitter name last night. I thought EVERYONE knew that… in reply to RedMummy #
  • @thepetshopboy Chris Eccleston? I prefer him as an actor, but by the time Tennant was on his 2nd season, he was my new doctor… in reply to thepetshopboy #
  • @RedMummy Heh… that's okay… the internet will soon forget… in reply to RedMummy #
  • @thepetshopboy He's one of my favourite actors, Eccleston: I do wonder if there isn't a small element of crush in there. I'd sooner Thewlis. in reply to thepetshopboy #
  • I mean I'd sooner Thewlis as the Doctor, not, you know, as a man crush. Though if his wife was along… #
  • Oh, dear… So time wasn't kind to you, @Mykx. My 1st 2 were Baker & Davidson, but to be honest, Patrick Troughton is the one for me. #
  • RT @steevbishop: Molly Sugden knew a thing or two about #virgilioanderson (Oh, NICE!) #
  • @thepetshopboy Mind you, if Eccleston's presence wasn't enough to push it in a darker direction… (Have you seen Naked?) in reply to thepetshopboy #
  • @thepetshopboy Than you know EXACTLY what I'm thinking about… in reply to thepetshopboy #
  • @thepetshopboy That's what TORCHWOOD should have been! in reply to thepetshopboy #
  • @Mykx Man… that's the suck! in reply to Mykx #
  • @thepetshopboy Well, it has it's moments, especially in the 2nd season, but its take on mature themes is that everyone shags everyone… in reply to thepetshopboy #
  • @thepetshopboy … But not graphically. There's a bit of swearing, & innuendo, & LOTS of tired sci-fi cliches. in reply to thepetshopboy #
  • In terms of maturity, the shows go: Sarah Jane, Doctor Who, Torchwood. EXACTLY the opposite of what you'd expect! #thepetshopboy #Mykx #
  • @steevbishop Is that a feature, or an extra that you have to pay for? in reply to steevbishop #
  • @marcellerby Better late than never… I don't know if I read to end, or IF it ended, but it's the reason I say "Cool Beans!" in reply to marcellerby #
  • @steevbishop But… isn't that how it's meant to be? in reply to steevbishop #
  • @RedMummy Well, if you will insist on doing it in clothes. in reply to RedMummy #
  • I miss Jeff Goldblum – this report makes me feel even sadder about his tragic demise. Sigh. http://is.gd/1lmJV #
  • … New Zealand police have confirmed that #virgilioanderson pushed Jeff Goldblum to his death. #
  • Just listened to the @geeksyndicate The Next Level podcast. Man, you guys were thorough, & awesome. Plus, I got an anonymous namecheck! Yay! #
  • Desire for positivity in fandom is an idea whose time has come – as response I think to things having gotten SO bad online. @geeksyndicate #
  • @GeekSyndicate Will do! Glad you like them! in reply to GeekSyndicate #
  • What an odd little grotto of strangely attractive women. #
  • @giagia My sister of the three week old baby is convinced that there are already REAL smiles, alongside the Wind smiles, so who maybe… in reply to giagia #
  • @giagia … How long is it before they're supposed to be proper smiley? in reply to giagia #
  • @steevbishop S'like the Jonathan Ross show or something. I guess I was the not so famous niche guest you brought on early? ;) in reply to steevbishop #
  • @dailyecho Blimey… That should ABSOLUTELY have made it into the article…was it in the print version? ;) Dalmatians have similar history. in reply to dailyecho #
  • @tim12s Heh… true enough. It was a confusing moment. in reply to tim12s #
  • @ebroxx Oh noes… this was in the middle of town. In the little park where people tend to be sexually assaulted at nights. Hello, you! in reply to ebroxx #
  • @acheverton Oh, no… @steevbishop favours the Marlands one, so we were in the sweet-spot seats, in the front window. in reply to acheverton #
  • @acheverton I love the mystery of it all… Modern life leaves too few corners in the world unlit. in reply to acheverton #
  • @acheverton Ah, but they get to stay throughout the show… in reply to acheverton #
  • Ha…that really says it all, doesn't it, @acheverton? We had that conversation: You see more of 'em at WQ branch, but at M they are closer! #
  • @acheverton I am like the wind… in reply to acheverton #
  • @sarahditum It bloody OUGHT to be your Plan A for EVERYTHING. Sexy Circus Troupes are teh awesome! in reply to sarahditum #
  • @giagia Logan makes the family scowly face when he's got wind. As do I. in reply to giagia #
  • … & that, ladies & gentlemen, is why I instigated the 1 Starbucks rule. Bugger. #
  • @Bournemouthecho Heh. in reply to Bournemouthecho #
  • @caitlinmoran Teenagers have no stamina or work ethic. Had I the opportunity, weather would be no barrier. Tell him to pull his finger out! in reply to caitlinmoran #
  • @caitlinmoran (Or, you know, put it in. That might help.) in reply to caitlinmoran #
  • @hattiehattie Oh, no, I can see it. (Note: I can't really see it. @chartltonbrooker may be responding to the eyes? There is a hint there.) in reply to hattiehattie #
  • @hattiehattie Ah, see, I was going from what we see in the pictures…! in reply to hattiehattie #
  • @geeksyndicate Agreed on Detective Comics – also, I just picked it up from scratch, & it works just fine, even tho I don't know the woman. #
  • @steevbishop IT'S OKAY I KNOW MY PLACE. Sob. At least I wasn't bumped for Joe Pasquale. in reply to steevbishop #
  • @steevbishop You can't rely on people's ability to remember an individual piece of tech. My suggestion? Communication Saturation ftw! in reply to steevbishop #
  • There's something seriously up with my nose. Started last night, bugging me today. Gak! #
  • @Groonk It's a nice film, but I made the mistake of watching it the same night as Assassination/Jesse James. It got overshadowed. :( in reply to Groonk #
  • @parsnipnose3000 Is this the curse of Are You Being Served? in full effect? in reply to parsnipnose3000 #
  • @parsnipnose3000 Aside from the @glinner & Armando stables? in reply to parsnipnose3000 #
  • @Groonk Oh, no, it's a lovely film. Well, lovely isn't right – just a really odd film, technically, & unfolding with a relentlessness to it. in reply to Groonk #
