@joshhechinger @XanderBennett HA! You two… Just… HA! That is easily my favourite bit of Firefly… #
@BeaucoupKevin I can certainly dig it. (Damn… probably a bit too much delay for that to gel.) in reply to BeaucoupKevin #
Not a massive Smiths OR Packham fan, but this is quite wonderful. http://is.gd/1p2GU. Thanks, @rhodri. Did he announce he would do this? #
@indiaknight New avatar? in reply to indiaknight #
@Lea_Ada_Franco Well, of course, we all now know you weren't, right? Not that it would have mattered, but, you know. in reply to Lea_Ada_Franco #
@Mykx But… but it's your vinyl… in reply to Mykx #
@sarahditum EXCELLENT! I only ever get to watch porn for the usual reasons. in reply to sarahditum #
@SorenLorensen Yeah, you… Where WERE you…? in reply to SorenLorensen #
@caitlinmoran We had a MASSIVE rainbow, earlier. After the rain. It… oh, hang on… Be easier to just SHOW you… in reply to caitlinmoran #
http://twitpic.com/9jef6 – AWESOME rainbow from earlier tonight. Partly for @caitlinmoran #
@caitlinmoran … Oh, also, our moon looked so big that we were singing not-quite-sober "That's amor-AY!" down our street… in reply to caitlinmoran #
@EthanSuplee It's a fair response, to be honest. in reply to EthanSuplee #
@ScruffyPanther Is… is that supposed to be a SCOTTISH accent? JESUS, EVERYONE thinks they can do a Scottish accent these days… in reply to ScruffyPanther #
@ScruffyPanther … Schurely schome mischtake? (See, I can too…) in reply to ScruffyPanther #
@Lea_Ada_Franco I think many of us have spent a bit of time with someone who wasn't healthy for us. Some obviously more than others, mind! in reply to Lea_Ada_Franco #
@Mykx But… but I find myself more and more reassured by the plane of physical possessions… in reply to Mykx #
Oh dear. Oh dear oh dear… There are these girls, yes? & they support the BNP, yes? We should ask searching questions about their beliefs: #
Babes Of The BNP: http://is.gd/1pgaW #
Q: "Sure thing. What ethnicity would you most like to make love to?" A: "Oh, God, British."Q: "Outside of that?" A: "Say… black." WHAT? #
"Mum…was going to get a flat off the council…1st question they asked her…was “Are you an immigrant?” I don’t agree with that." WHAT? #
This BNP girl seems to idolise Michael Jackson. WELL DONE MJ! You got white enough to be beloved by the white supremacists! WELL DONE! #
@EthanSuplee Hah… If you want to know about racism, waving the Welsh/French heritage around in England will give you insights… #
@EthanSuplee … Here, apparently, both are fair game! #
@belle_lulu Oops, wrong end of the stick. Not MY mum. My mum is in Cyprus. Should be hashtagging, I'm sorry: http://is.gd/1pgaW in reply to belle_lulu #
@bloggerheads Somehow, I suspect that girl doesn't actually know that. She seems to quite admire blacks, without irony. in reply to bloggerheads #
@Mykx I don't know how to get to Germany on a zero pence budget… in reply to Mykx #
Oh my god… hasn't ANYONE seen Mars Attacks! before? Not G1, not friends earlier on, & now not @belle_lulu. IT IS A CLASSIC! #
(Also, my best "at the cinema" story is about a midnight showing of Mars Attacks! when it was released, but it's too long for Twitter.) #
@bloggerheads They are mind-boggling womens, aren't they? MIND BOGGLING! in reply to bloggerheads #
@bloggerheads I've been admonishing people for dismissing BNP supporters (Not members) as stupid, when they're just ill-informed. But this? in reply to bloggerheads #
@belle_lulu It's really just too lovely a film. Stupid in a way that people weren't equipped for backwhen, but just lovely. in reply to belle_lulu #
(I should note that I didn't find the BNP Babes link, but I lost track of who did.) #
@Groonk To be fair it might not be the most solid of films, but I just love so much of it I can ignore the chaff. SJP Doghead! AckAckAckAck! in reply to Groonk #
@Mykx GRRR STUPID REALITY! in reply to Mykx #
@belle_lulu I will, but not tonight. Need my sleep…! in reply to belle_lulu #
@thecraigmorris Isn't it…? Aren't they? in reply to thecraigmorris #
@Mykx OH HA! I see what you did there… in reply to Mykx #
@thecraigmorris I'd missed it… that actually IS genius! in reply to thecraigmorris #
@belle_lulu Night, youse. Night to @ScruffyPanther, too! x in reply to belle_lulu #
Absoludicrous! http://is.gd/1pkUT – Mr T on Recouping. An oldie but… you know the rest… #
@davidbaillie @idsharman Well, you guys, I'm not even working, & I'm still up writing. So what's MY excuse? Incidentally: http://is.gd/1plxJ #
@thepetshopboy Ooo, hate to be a spam man, but just posted a cinema story of mine, by request, over at Nixsight. S'here: http://is.gd/1plxJ #
RT @charltonbrooker: "This is basically 'Britain's Got People', isn't it?" Yes, but it kind of appeals t'me in it's simplicity. #oneandother #
@charltonbrooker …In that it's making no attempt to dress itself up as anything more than mundane. I quite like that compared to BB et al. in reply to charltonbrooker #
Got an urge to hear the whole thing before bed, thanks to @thepetshopboy. Good one, sir! ♫ http://blip.fm/~9hj63 #
My best "At the cinema" story, as requested by @belle_lulu: http://is.gd/1pn5g #
@purseonality Yup, but the lids come off. Before you ask, I have NO idea why the kid took his lid off. KIDS! in reply to purseonality #
Oh, by the way, morning! My tummy hurts, but Dog One's must have hurt more in the night – came down to find her in a bed full of sick. Ick. #
@moontweet Yesterday I totally failed to hashtag #moonfruit properly. And it was a DAMN GOOD tweet, too. Stupid hashtags. in reply to moontweet #
@thoughtmecca I know, right? in reply to thoughtmecca #
@JHickman One of my two favourites of last year – the other was The Assassination Of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford. Oh, and Wall-E! in reply to JHickman #
@ScruffyPanther Well, there's your answer right there. in reply to ScruffyPanther #
@ScruffyPanther You probably deserved it, though, right? I was talking about your sleep issue! in reply to ScruffyPanther #
@ScruffyPanther I meant… I mean you probably deserved the kick, & my previous tweet was about the sleep. This has got very complicated! in reply to ScruffyPanther #
Existentially nerve-wracking, very well-made Barclays ad: http://is.gd/1pIC8 #
@rhodri That's dangerous thinking, right there…! in reply to rhodri #
@rhodri It left a bad taste in my mouth yesterday, & I felt myself slipping into bad old forum habits. Ignoring hashtag, now! in reply to rhodri #
What constitutes "overdoing it" when it comes to the #moonfruit promotion, @bloggerheads? #
Oh, gosh, this takes me back. Battle Of The Planets intro. TOTALLY different from Gatchaman: http://is.gd/1pK90 #
Thundercats, Ho! – http://is.gd/1pKcK. Loved this sequence. Was always acutely aware of the difference to the animation of the show itself. #
Did anyone else get unhealthily invested in the variable outcomes of the Terrahawks end credits as a kid? – http://is.gd/1pKiB – Red cheats! #
God, I used to love Star Fleet. Remembering how people used to actually die in it, & ship designs were awesome – http://is.gd/1pKpb #
Star Fleet – oh wow, I actually remember this scene really clearly. http://is.gd/1pKrW #
Another opening sequence whose show didn't quite measure up: Pole Position – Only their uncle knows! – http://is.gd/1pKwJ... #
… (Actually, opening sequence doesn't really measure up to nostalgia, either.) #
Oh gosh. Childhood rocked! Power EXTREME! – http://is.gd/1pKDY #
I'd say that my shameless 80s cartoon morning will affect numbers more than odd #moonfruit tweeting, @bloggerheads, but we'll see! #
@ScruffyPanther ACTUAL Oirish, or in an Oirish accent? I refer you to our conclusion Sunday about accents… in reply to ScruffyPanther #
@jensaltmann The problem when you meet someone you love BEFORE those lessons get learned: You kind of don't want them to have to learn them! in reply to jensaltmann #
@jensaltmann Have similar issues. Plus my fiancee comes from family that doesn't argue, so some discussions either clam her up or escalate. in reply to jensaltmann #
@ScruffyPanther Girl One took a while, but can now do Lucas bit of "Yeah AHknow", despite despising Little Britain. Other than that, nowt. in reply to ScruffyPanther #
@jensaltmann Oddly, Girl One & I are the other way around when it comes to people, but she lacks some street sense. in reply to jensaltmann #
@RebeccaFront Oh god PLEASE come up with a term that's NOT "Oral ulceration"? That's not a combination of words that makes me happy! in reply to RebeccaFront #
http://is.gd/1pMMDb – I'm so sweet like a nice bon-bon, came out rapping when I was born. #
RT @caitlinmoran #oneandother "Proof that the aspect of fame most people are interested in is "waving"." True. Good that it's OUT THERE now. #
… Though I doubt it will make much difference to the culture as it could. #oneandother @caitlinmoran #
This article isn't nearly as much of an anti BNP piece as it could have been, in fact remaining relatively factual: http://is.gd/1pNvO... #
(Yes, I find it amusing that in reference to a news story in a newspaper, the term "relatively factual" doesn't need clarification.) #
…The comments are interesting. And confused. #
"Police said to have recovered a BNP card/other right-wing lit during raid on home of suspect charged under Terrorism Act."… #
…"Since when as this been against the law?" Uh. It's the terrorism thing that's illegal… not the literature. Wally. #
"so the BNP are getting blamed because someone had a membership card. will they now blame Islam if a terrorist is caught with a Quran?"… #
… Well, sure. That SEEMS to be how the media & police have been dealing with Islamic extremism. But are you equating BNP with religion? #
The most controversial claim the article seems to make is that extremism & terrorism are sometimes linked. Not problematic view, surely? #
@belle_lulu Well, THAT'S concerning. Will go read now. in reply to belle_lulu #
@GeekSyndicate Tell them about my skillfully mistimed & redundant Arkham Asylum post. No, actually, probably don't… in reply to GeekSyndicate #
Oh, hang on, when did the daft young pretty lass get up on the plinth? & is she just pretty in relation to previous plinthers? #oneandother #
@belle_lulu Oh, dear. I sense a problem with this plan. Also, HAVE REPLIED! in reply to belle_lulu #
One thing I love about Twitter? The non-sequitirs: RT @Schofe: This is about to be the biggest sandwich you've ever seen! #
Actually, thinking about it, wouldn't a terror campaign at this point be dangerously off BNP message, & make things tougher for Mr Griffin? #
@acheverton Is that a response to the BNP Babes thing of last night, or the BNP terror links this morning? in reply to acheverton #
Yes, @SamShepherd – no more #moonfruit after today. Which is good, because I still feel conflicted about the whole thing. #
@bloggerheads NO! Let's hear the @realnickgriffin denounce these terrorisms – it will be more funnier. in reply to bloggerheads #
Actually, @realnickgriffin, did you see the BNP Babes post that was around last night? #
Odd… can't find any Flickr presence for #oneandother. Anyone know if there are pictures in the offing? #
@SamShepherd Xactly. Also, I hate bloody hashtags, but this seems to be the one that burst my bubble. in reply to SamShepherd #
@SorenLorensen Tut. Far too late for that… I am FURIOUS. And I hold a grudge for…woah, is that a new 20p piece? in reply to SorenLorensen #
Wow. So, OK, main bank account now empty for the month. Have backups, but it's been a while since this happened so early in month. #
@acheverton Oh dear… now there's no stopping you! in reply to acheverton #
@davidgilray Yay, found it… thanks! in reply to davidgilray #
@ScruffyPanther @belle_lulu You're all made of bloody mad, you. Sigh. Yet nother inevitable mam/au pair massacre imminent. Readying cleanup. #
@belle_lulu Oh, no, bleach works fine to clear up blood & guts, just not DNA. Suspect crime will be cut & dried: Just thinking resale value. in reply to belle_lulu #
@ScruffyPanther Yes… yes I am… in reply to ScruffyPanther #
http://is.gd/1pVtC – Oh, wow. Couldn't even get through this. Suspect she has never met an actual IT guy in her life. Fascinating, really. #
…Ta, by the way, @Sulman. #
@ScruffyPanther I do so like to live up to expectations! in reply to ScruffyPanther #
@ScruffyPanther You certainly do, young lady… you certainly do. in reply to ScruffyPanther #
@Sulman Had something of the watery-ass low-comm-denom romance to it. Half expected IT bod to rip off his shirt & rescue her from her life! in reply to Sulman #
@Sulman If @glinner hasn't seen it – http://is.gd/1pVtC – pretty sure he'll get a kick out of the contrast to his own vision of IT peeps. in reply to Sulman #
@ScruffyPanther But… I thought playing UP the racism, while also introducing a whisp of condescension & misogyny would work wonders… in reply to ScruffyPanther #
I posted this last week, on the GS site, but don't think I tweeted it. Out of date before I started writing, but enjoy: http://is.gd/1pWeR #
@ScruffyPanther Oh, no, but it's PERFECT for a giant homo-erotic anti-man like myself! in reply to ScruffyPanther #
I for one am terrified of our insect overlords: http://is.gd/1pWZw #
@steevbishop OK! You know, at one point I was thinking of doing a series of comics about a war between we humans & ALL of the other animals. in reply to steevbishop #
2012: It's A Disaster!!! – http://is.gd/1pXO6. This may actually eclipse BAY-SPLOSIONS! #
@caitlinmoran Though of course, perhaps that's insight enough into the character of the nation for the piece to have merit? #oneandother in reply to caitlinmoran #
