• Ha, @Vesperae will approve. He loved your film. RT @Hazzatronica: We played Connect 4 in the middle of Regent St http://tinyurl.com/yjae9ge #
• I'm jealous. Does anywhere do vegetarian-meat buffets? #meatmonday On the upside, just got great wheat-free birthday cake for mum @ 8th Day. #

• #vss Jesus looked out of the window and – "Aw, dad," he grumbled. Overcast again! He'd have to put off the transfiguration until tomorrow. #
• #vss "Special offer!" I smiled, spraying the perfume sampler towards her. The virus would work fast. Her unborn child, replaced by my clone. #

• "Ghostbusters survival horror" – tell me that's not the greatest theme for a video game! Ghost Hunter on PS2 is fun, but tricky, so far. #
• "The dog is the Arduino to the cat's iPod Shuffle." — Richard Feynman or someone #

• #vss When she suggested driving with the top down I knew it was time to end it. Pity, she's hot, but I can't breathe vacuum. #
• #vss When she flicked on the sluggish light, she saw spindly legs disappear into the corners. They seemed to whisper "BecbecbecbecBECCA!" #

• #vss They're coming. I can hear. My leg won't stop jiggling, ha ha! They're outside. Or inside? My welcoming committee's loaded and cocked. #
• #vss Dear Sally, wish you were here. It is sunny. I saw a girl who looked like you but her blood was the wrong red. See you very soon. XXXXX #
• I love my job, but sometimes it makes me so, so angry. http://bit.ly/boidQf #tftd Platitude of the Day saves my sanity: http://bit.ly/9n9NLP #
• Just found myself thinking "What's the English for Luftkissenfahr… hovercraft!" Yes, I am a native English speaker. #
• RT @thoroughlygood: Rule of thumb: unless they're talent BBC people get very twitchy when there are cameras around. // YES THIS KEEP IT AWAY #

• RT @NameYourTale: In the Hall of Mountain Dew http://is.gd/a9uH7 #microfiction // 'Commissioned' (well, suggested) for @Ree ;-P #
• Brunette and acoustic guitarist busking in reception. Sweet. #
• I'm returning to the first job I ever did for the BBC: making wrong answers for multiple-choice quizzes. Rediscovering how much I enjoy it! #
• There's something magic about making plausible wrong options: fooling people, putting in hidden references for anyone who knows the subject. #
• I'm @Degsy, I like meat and I think cats are sweet. I live in a tower 'caus I like the power and I like an RDF triple with my tipple.*ducks* #

• Uploading and testing #TFTD mightn't be the BEST time for my brain to have a panic twitch at the sound of the speaker's voice. #fail #aspie #

• #vss Some beginning mages turn people into frogs. Some make them think they're frogs (this is funnier). Suitov… just liked to watch frogs. #
• #vss Suitov spent many months observing a captured lizard. The mannerisms he learned proved useful for disconcerting aunts and other adults. #
• #vss A spell in a poorly-researched book of his mother's needed eye of newt. Reasoning that a whole newt was better, Suitov let one observe. #

• Signing off an email full of puns about copper, with the phrase "Cu tomorrow". Wonders if it will be noticed. #
• I feel like this when I remember to take my medication. *happy!* http://bit.ly/9TJCKH #
• Usually I'm high-functioning – can talk, remember to smile and so on. But sometimes I need some time simply to be autistic… #autism #aspie #

• Help. I can't stop listening to this. http://bit.ly/bcohIU [Still Alive remix] #
• Just realised it's someone's birthday on the 15th so I can't go and see Enter the Dragon. Rats. I WANT TO SEE PUNCHING. #
• Compromising. My usual verbal slang for "certificate" is "stiff", but I'm not writing "Thanks, I already have a stiff" over staff messenger. #

• It's a wossname. Metaphor. A tradition or an old charter or something. Or maybe it's a butterfly, dreaming of being a different butterfly. #

• Mother: "Are you implying my cat is in any way disloyal?" Herm: "s slash any slash every" #nerd #perljokes #nobodyunderstandsme #

• #vss He could deal with the maggots, but not the way her face kept changing location between her torso and limbs. "Can we just be friends?" #
• #vss Orbital Station Par-Tay was founded in recognition of a simple principle: in space, nobody can thump the wall complaining of the noise. #
• #vss She was convinced his cat was a chav. Its fur was Tabby by Burberry and it had installed blue LEDs and a subwoofer under its mat. #

• Tech prog: "…trying to frag them at 2 frames per second." Herm: "Lol. See what she did there? It's a pun on FPS." … #nobodyunderstandsme #

• http://twitpic.com/15os51 – Clouded leopard and peacock, a print I bought a while ago. (In the flesh, the frame matches the wing perfectly.) #
• http://twitpic.com/15oshb – And Sherlock Holmes, framed to match the other small piece (the leopard, http://www.twitpic.com/15os51 ). I got #

• OMD! A young lady brought a baby on the tram and it was SO LOVELY! *meltyboots* #
• BBC News people: thank you! You updated the Euthanasia Q&A article on the URL we already link to, instead of making me change every link. <3 #
• I still want to steal that baby I saw on the tram. She was fidgety and kept making whingeing noises and looking around at people. TOO CUTE. #

• I'm in your internal email groups being my 'helpful' selfz. http://flic.kr/p/44njPL #
• http://twitpic.com/153ib8 – For @anti_social and @metaltax. If there's a scandal involving this young lady (I don't really know who she is), [can we please call it Colegate?] #

• #vss Rige thought of her as "a real page-turner", but not aloud. Being compared to books upsets some people. (with apologies to @keelelita) #
