Twitter Weekly Updates for 2011-06-27
- Is this an apology? http://bit.ly/irQT7S Or a "Sorry I was caught"? Here's @todmaffin's take on it: http://bit.ly/jJVCPp #vanriot #
- Dell/Sanyo shipped my last order of Eneloop batteries in a brown paper bag. Will I need to sneak it home now? http://campl.us/bJ7j #
- I have very little to no sympathy for the "Poor me! I'm a rioter but I didn't mean it. I'm a victim too!" whiners. Actions have consequences #
- The "I was too drunk and too caught up in the crowd" excuse is pathetic. Pathetic. And angering. #vanriot #
- Given how people drive on Granville, Oak, and Knight Streets, I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often: http://bit.ly/itFRrD #yvr #
- These photos are incredible. The bus looks almost unscathed; the car is demolished. http://bit.ly/iGZ3e7 #
- Dear child: Yes, I'm aware it's the longest day if the year. That doesn't mean I needed to see it all. #
- In news that will shock some, I'm impressed by the Cons' effort to push Senate reform. #cdnpoli #
- Oh look! It's an entirely preventable MUMPS outbreak in Vancouver. Antivaxxers? It's YOUR fault. #
- Congratulations to everyone at @CarouselTheatre for their wins at the #jessies last night! http://bit.ly/kGtoQQ #theatre #yvr #
- I thought that story sounded familiar. It's @Arcane_Bimmer on the @parent_project right now. #cbc #radio1 #vanriot #
- Re last tweet: Apparently we haven't learned anything. #vanriot #
- Happy National Aboriginal Day! We can hear the drumming echoing across False Creek. #
- Jamie Oliver eat your heart out! http://instagr.am/p/GJ9pi/ #
- All 4 of George R.R. Martin's "A Song of Fire and Ice" on sale for $18 at Kobo! http://t.co/m7OY5X5 (via @tjrossignol) #
- *Really* internet doppleganger? Asking to reset my FB password 5 times in 10 hrs? Do you *know* the def'n of insanity? #oopsididitagain #
- My internet doppleganger is not very smart. Now 7 attempts to mobile log in or reset my FB password in 12 hours. Lather, rinse, repeat. #
- Heading downtown to the Harry and the Potters concert at the VPL. Hope the crowd stays under control. #
- At the Harry and the Potters concert. Other than our kids, there are no others younger than 15 or so! #
- Harry and the Potters http://instagr.am/p/GQ-uC/ #
- At Harry and The Potters http://instagr.am/p/GQ_DA/ #
- Just promoted to a "Vice-President" on Empire Avenue. Still not sure I "get" it. #
- Judging by experience we've had, VSB's bullying policy seems: Put the bully and victim together as much as possible so they can work it out. #
- And if that's not the VSB policy then A's kindergarten teach is DOING IT WRONG. Another special event, another pairing with his "bully". #
- Someone's not getting an end-of-the-school-year present. #
- Thanks @shiral and Jon Siddall! Now know that the Heineken ad song/band is: The Asteroids Galaxy Tour/The Golden Age! #otc #earworm #
- Turns out that The Asteroids Galaxy Tour has licensed their music for lots of things http://bit.ly/juZnEX #
- Note to self: Don't DM anything to wife that I don't want kids to read too. #
- I'm learning new words from my 6 yr old. French words. #languagesponge #
- Finally settling in to watch @BadAstronomer's third episode of Bad Universe #PVRsAreWonderful #
- What the heck? The Canucks picked another GOALIE in the draft? I assume he's just tradebait. #
- Oddly, I can see Cypress through the extreme downpour. Looks sunny over there. #yvr #heavilylocalizedweather #
- Listening to Aidan's new "Harry and the Potters" CD. They're one of the few bands that have better production quality live. #shudder #
- Geocaching in Belcarra http://campl.us/bXIf #
- Apparently I'm going be abandoned tonight while @leftcoastmama and the local posse hit Burgoo for sticky toffee pudding. #
- But isn't tonight the season premiere of the not-so-shiny-and-wearing-much-less-clothing vampire show that shall not be named? Oh well. #
- Both kids in bed since 6:45pm. Neither anywhere close to sleep yet. I wonder if they will get to sleep before 10pm tonight? #GoTheF KToSleep #
- More than a little confused by evil, grenade-throwing faeries. Huh? #
- She's pining for the fjords! She's just sleeping! #trueblood #bored #
- Humans, vampires, bad faeries, and zombie parrots. #ThisIsNotASpoiler #StillBored #TrueBlood #
- After that … show … we move on to the third episode of BBC's Sherlock. Quirky, but I'm not sure I'm sold on it. #
