  • @RichMOMB Well, THAT fucking sucks. #
  • @davidwynne Ha! Is that anything to do with our conversations over the last couple of days? in reply to davidwynne #
  • @kierongillen Just read on Bleeding Cool about SWORD. Guessing you're busy enough that this is sad but not devastating news for you, but… in reply to kierongillen #
  • @kierongillen …want to let you know that I'm loving it. Think it's one of the more competent books Marvel have. Anything we can do? in reply to kierongillen #
  • @kierongillen Um… "Most competent" sounded a lot more complimentary in my head. I meant it as the highest of praise! in reply to kierongillen #
  • @kierongillen Stronger ideas, characterisation, plotting and more fun than anything else I've read from either DC or Marvel the last year. in reply to kierongillen #
  • @davidwynne Hah, yeah, I realised that as soon as I'd written it. I fucking love SWORD, though. in reply to davidwynne #
  • @Sulman That should certainly help things along…! in reply to Sulman #
  • Think we're going to use http://is.gd/6sHJK The Knot to present travel/accomodation info to wedding guests. Anyone got better site suggests? #
  • (@SamShepherd, I'm mainly looking at you.) #
  • @Chris_TOMP Is that the bit about her liking comics for ladies? He cracked me up with that at the time. #MOMBCast in reply to Chris_TOMP #
  • @steevbishop Oh, yeah! Heh. in reply to steevbishop #
  • Watching Being Human with G1. She caught up today, & the 2nd series is going strong now. Wogan, conspiracy, humour. Good stuff! #
  • Being Human 0202 pretty fucking swell. Intense episode, you guys! #
  • @jamiesmart Avatar was pretty bloody awesome, wasn't it? in reply to jamiesmart #
  • @McKelvie G1 hadn't seen the 1st series so we just played catchup on it. It was harsher than I remembered. in reply to McKelvie #
  • @dcurtisj Talking about it feels a bit like that all the time. in reply to dcurtisj #
  • Where were Spandau Ballet from? Ed Norton just played one of them as straight up American Cockney on Modern Family. #
  • @Chris_TOMP It's when American actors do an OTT Cockney accent. Allroit, then azzabaht it? in reply to Chris_TOMP #
  • Why everybody seem so down this morning? I woke up to the smell of chicken stock on the slow cooker, throughout the house. Then to work! #
  • …Oh, actually, yeah, I see. Wish I was still at home with the chicken stock and the fiancee. #
  • @Chris_TOMP Uuuuhm… I… shouldn't answer that. in reply to Chris_TOMP #
  • @SamShepherd Oh, is it? How does it feel? in reply to SamShepherd #
  • @rolhirst Oh man! I hate that too! We're like twins! in reply to rolhirst #
  • @Sulman Teehee, Alison Kock. Shark Scientist!M Also, the onlookers who saw the whole thing as quite "colourful" made it sound almost pretty. in reply to Sulman #
  • It's about right that on the grumpiest day of the year, @RichMOMB would be so productive. Always swimming against the current, making waves! #
  • @RichMOMB It really wasn't, though, was it? We loved those fucking cakes. Now I'll be upset if we don't have them EVERY week. in reply to RichMOMB #
  • @rolhirst Why of course! in reply to rolhirst #
  • @steevbishop Lols. And then double lols! in reply to steevbishop #
  • @RichMOMB It did! But in reality, not NEARLY as loud as your protests… ;) Lesson to be learned there. Oh, yes, birthday cake, #MOMBcast! in reply to RichMOMB #
  • @MissDracula But why? #
  • @jhewlett Oh, but it was a GOOOD season, sir. Well worth it. I recommend grabbing/watching it before you see the new one. in reply to jhewlett #
  • @MissDracula Oh, well, there IS that. When you say it out loud like that, I think I want to cancel my account, too. :( in reply to MissDracula #
  • @MissDracula First neiceynephew? (A smarter way to put that would be: First time being a prospective aunt?) in reply to MissDracula #
  • @jhewlett Well, that's just a TERRIBLE attitude. I swear, you youngsters have NO patience. in reply to jhewlett #
  • Right, talking to Southern Water trying to find out what they actually have records of so far. Spoke to man who was actually quite helpful. #
  • …This time I am making notes of every person I speak to. Don't know how much this will help. #
  • @JamesMOMB You know, I still haven't put that thing up on the podcast site. Stupid me. STUPID STUPID STUPID! in reply to JamesMOMB #
  • A very short Elephant Words piece from me this week. It's called Potential – http://is.gd/6waI9 – Go! Read! Enjoy! Comment! Share! #
  • @ElleSergi Listen to @JamesMOMB… when it comes to food & eating, he knows what he's talking about… in reply to ElleSergi #
  • @ElleSergi (…as galling as it is as a Greek Cypriot to take advice on EATING from an ENGLISH guy like @JamesMOMB! They are AMATEURS!) in reply to ElleSergi #
  • @JamesMOMB Did you ever see this site?: http://is.gd/6wfhn – pre-cleared independent music. Oh yea! (No idea how GOOD it is, mind!) in reply to JamesMOMB #
  • @JamesMOMB Also, are we already on the Libsyn directory? in reply to JamesMOMB #
  • RT @kierongillen: I write a little about The SWORD situation: http://gillen.cream.org/wordpress_html/?p=1779 #
  • @SamShepherd Primadonna! in reply to SamShepherd #
  • Have included Show Timings in #MOMBcast details. Will be interested to see if people find it useful: http://is.gd/5LWa9 #
  • http://is.gd/5LWa9 – I think timings will be useful for creators of comics we review, such as: @mattfraction @kierongillen @butwin et al… #
  • … Like if @brianmbendis wants to hear what we say about Siege, but not listen to the rest of our blather, for eg. http://is.gd/5LWa9 #
  • Did anybody else spend a worrying amount of time trying to see the lady alien's nipples in Avatar? #
  • @mrtonylee OH MY GOD. You're listening to TMBG. You really are a class act, aren't you? in reply to mrtonylee #
  • @mrtonylee Oh wow… you're not just listening to They Might Be Giants. You're listening to motherfucking Flood! in reply to mrtonylee #
  • @georgelondon She was nothing to me. She was alien meat, and nothing more. in reply to georgelondon #
  • @mmetcalfe Nichten spickten Fritzenheinen. Ein illiteraten dans la multiplical linguism. So nein. in reply to mmetcalfe #
  • @mmetcalfe Which is to say, I am astonishingly poorly read for such a verbose guy. I haven't read ANY Kafka. But I could probably blag it! in reply to mmetcalfe #
  • @DJDarren But… EVERYBODY has nipples! in reply to DJDarren #
  • @Butwin Phew, good. I mean, I know SOME people, like yourself, love listening to our lovely nonsense, but it might be a bit much for some! in reply to Butwin #
  • @Butwin BTW, did I ever insist that you read this: http://is.gd/6wxi1? From one creator of self-contained super-hero universes to another… in reply to Butwin #
  • Also, did anybody else start forgetting that the main female character in Avatar was a weirdly proportioned alien at… uh… key moments? #
  • @DJDarren Obviously, that last tweet was partly aimed at you… in reply to DJDarren #
