The morning after Halloween – why hasn't the city cleaned up all the candy and bodies of mutilated children from sidewalks. It's unsightly. #

My Magic Mouse has arrived. Unboxing and first impressions to follow. #
How to properly masquerade your gay son this Halloween: http://bit.ly/2J0JOS #
Playing with shell scripts in OSX, and bending them to my will. Each terminal command is an underpants-soiling adventure. #
There is something lewd to me about a giant button on a shipping website that reads "Track your package". #
Came home to find a package at my door, hoping it to be the new Magic Mouse I ordered. Instead this was inside.. http://yfrog.com/78m17hj #

Just helped a friend move his family into their new home. My hands are so swollen from lifting that my fingers look like sausages. The pain! #
Windows 7 is DLLicious! #
Tip: Never accept a free horror flick from a friend. Especially when it's "Paranormal Activity". Farewell clean underpants. #
Order new Apple Magic Mouse: check. Begin agonizing long wait for mouse to arrive: check. Say goodbye to $70: check. #
Seriously… this is the longest the Apple Store has been down outside of a keynote. What's the deal here? #

Just went to the grocery store to pick up some Land O' Lakes Butter, and the check-out scanner read as "LOL butter." Made my day. #
Getting a Javascript function to do my bidding, and chew some variables. Ah, to be a geek on Friday night. #
Watching @thebrawnyman slip into a diabetic coma after eating an insulin-obliterating Banaba cream cake. He's sweating sugar out his pores. #
