  • The iPad is super-absorbant and available in Maxi-size as well. Your wife or girlfriend will love it! #
  • Great, now the Republicans are giving their rebuttal to the iPad. Bobby Jindal will tear it apart for being too liberal and lacking features #
  • I'm stunned by how much Apple's iBook reader rips off Classic reader for iPhone. http://bit.ly/2m9Yf0 #
  • Watching Steve Job's keynote, and feeling reassured by Job's appearance. He's put on some weight and looks healthier than ever. #
  • So far the only thing I really blew my mind away from iPad is the drop-domn menu notification. This needs to be added to OSX and iPhone. #
  • I view the iPad in much the same way as I do AppleTV: a cool prototype attempting to create and/or redefine a market, but falls short. #
  • Ten more minutes until I join the legions of iWhores plunking down my credit card to buy new Apple shit. Don't judge me! #
  • It's a nice neighborhood to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there. http://bit.ly/9qpdxL #
  • My Apple predictions for today. 1. Apple announces tablet. 2. Apple shares drop, afterward. 3. Twitter goes down. All in that order. #
  • My God am I excited about today!

    They're serving pizza for lunch! Wait, is there some other big event today? #

  • Every time a Wal-mart security scanner rings, a door greeter gets their wings. Or falls dead from a sudden heart attack. #
  • This is AWESOME: http://www.switched.com/2010/01/25/spaced-out-designing-the-workspace-for-every-desk-dweller /via @superpixels #

  • Creating a new spot in Gowalla in hopes it will resolve the pesky bug i'm encountering. — at Blockbuster Video http://gowal.la/s/3g8q #

  • Excited by the prospect of @lettersapp project and the pending arrival a robust Mac IMAP email client for power users. http://bit.ly/8A2Rx4 #
  • MacUpdate.com is my daily window for discovering awesome new software. Each visit feels like boarding a ship filled with hot women, all 4 me #
  • Insanely vulgar Better Off Ted outtakes. http://bit.ly/6LxRne #
  • Magic Mouse really is magical. It makes batteries disappear – having consumed a second set of batteries in shorter time than the first. #
  • Wow Google, seriously? You don't allow embedded maps in Waves? Great product integration you have there. Pure fucktastic genius. Really. #
  • Thought just occurred to me that Apple should resurrect its now defunct iBook branding for the tablet. The perfect name for such a product. #
  • My inner geek is already sporting an erectile projectile for the Apple tablet, and the damned thing isn't even announced yet. I wants it! #
  • To the crackwhore spermatorium bimbo hooker who nearly ran me off the highway on the way home. You have made a powerful enemy today. #
  • Slogan of the day "The mystery has been pantsed." #
  • Watching Penn and Teller's Bullshit for the first time and thoroughly enjoying it. Though I'm shocked by the amount of tits & profanity. Oy! #

  • Looking forward to attending PAX East in March with @thebrawnyman, @pokepoke, and @snowman2025 for a weekend of gaming violence. #paxeast #
  • The most stunning use of CG ever designed. Breathtaking, and all of it is fully CG (i.e. not real). http://vimeo.com/7809605 #
  • The sight of John Mayer on the cover of Guitar World mag scares the hell out of me. I must burn my copy immediately, then gouge out my eyes. #

  • So who's attending Pax East this March? Interested in a meetup? #
  • Procured my copy of Modern Warfare 2 for PC. I await the next opportunity kill all of my good friends online. What are friends for? Pew pew! #

  • Farewell, pleated pants. Friday has come to free you. Yes, it's Pantless Friday, folks. Join my liberation movement – emancipate your legs. #
  • Microsoft's answer to iSlate is a slate PC, running straight up Windows 7 with no customizations. Apple is so going to crush this category. #
  • Watching Steve Balmer's CES keynote, and laughing hysterically at his fumbling Tablet demos. Someone didn't brief him how to use the device. #
  • Oh, BetterTouchTool. If you were human I would meet you in a club, take you aside and do unspeakable acts to you..in public. I love you. #
  • The new Slingbox 700u looks like badly designed bathroom scales. Seriously, who would want this in their living room? http://bit.ly/8zmV4P #
  • Mapping multi-touch gestures to my Magic Mouse in BetterTouchTool. I can finally use finger swipes to refresh Tweetie and Mail! Paradise. #
  • Sweet lord, Portia De Rossi is a hottie! She's like a female Jude Law with breasts. And….breasts. That's not wrong is it? #
  • Wonderful! I step outside into the Siberian tundra and my jacket zipper breaks. Thank you, Pakistan for my defective coat & frozen nipples! #
  • AppZapper 2.0 update is droolworthy & makes uninstalling apps fun. I've wiped out half of my applications already. STOP ME! #appzapper #
  • My Yahoo personals debacle has taken on a new horror. Now it's trying to match me with women in their 40s. Why does Yahoo hate me? #
  • Abortion is a pregnancy refund conducted beneath a sign that reads "All sales are final". #
  • My friend Ben Adryl. He works wonders on cold symptoms and hyperactive children. Call him. He's available 24/7, right on your night stand. #
  • Homeland Security and the NTSA put on such great theater, convincing the public our airlines are safe for travel. I almost want to believe. #

  • I regret ever having explored Yahoo personals. My inbox is fillrd with fat divorced women looking for a second income. I give up. No more. #
  • Watched Aliens Vs. Predator Requiem for less than 40 minutes before ejecting the DVD. That's 10 minutes less than Brokeback Mountain. Bleh! #
  • Photo perspective fun. http://bit.ly/GPodR #
  • Photos that expose our dirty minds. http://bit.ly/5K3dDO #
  • Star Wars where you least suspect it http://om.ly/dhUI (via @GuyKawasaki) #
  • Had fun playing Munchkin with @pokepoke, @lavystar, @thebrawnyman, @snowman2025. And learning that I'm apparently not trusted around women. #
  • Disturbingly realistic sculptures that will make you cringe. http://bit.ly/2QZslH #
  • My "Toys for Tards" drives was a failure. I wanted to bring joy to under privileged retarded kids, yet none of you contributed. Shameful. #
  • Jailbroke my iPhone for the sheer pleasure of installing ProSwitcher and Orbit, which provide functions Apple should build into the OS. #
  • Holiday spam. Nothing says Christmas like a huge erection that lasts until New Year's. My idea of Yule Log. http://twitpic.com/vrk2x #
  • Playing Star Wars Force Unleashed Sith Ed. Which I'm finding to be surprisingly good, given mediocre reviews. #

  • Cork'n Cleaver is a restaurant stuck in a time warp. Seriously, like stepping back into the 1970s. The food is great, but the decor? Scary. #
  • Watching Dogma reminds me of all the reasons I hate Janeane Garofalo. She is a satan's succubus. Resisting the urge to smash my Television. #
  • Just returned from watching Sherlock Holmes with @gwardwell and @cdwardwell. Fantastic movie! Robert Downy jr and Jude Law were brilliant. #
  • Dad: "so, dating anyone?" Me: "identical twin prostitutes" Dad: *tears* "you always want your children to have it better than you did." #
  • "MERRY CHRISTMAS, MOVIE HOUSE!" #
  • Roads are icy. Which means I'll be driving under the influence of spiked eggnog while waving a large salt shaker out of the window. #
  • Google Voice translation of voicemail from dad: "Let us know where goes your ass, and scalp Arabs. Okay bye." *Sigh* On Christmas no less. #
  • Why do I feel as though I'm suffering from a bad hangover, without having consumed any alcohol? Was I sleep drinking… again? #
  • Oh MagicPrefs, is there any Magic Mouse gesture you don't support? Even my middle finger works – both insulting and intuitive. #
  • Nothing quenches my thirst like a 16oz serving of rage! Anger is my energy drink of choice – hot, steaming, and served with a tiny umbrella. #
  • Christmas shopping for dad. What do you buy a man who always complains about his bowels? A colonoscopy and year's supply of toilet paper? #

  • Sears cashier: "So, out Christmas shopping?"

    Me: "No, I often buy perfume and power tools together in one purchase." #

  • Am I the only one aroused by the site of raw cookie dough? That's not weird is it? Lovin the oven. #
  • Watching Dr. Strangelove. A classic Kubrick film. Best quote "Gentlemen, you can't fight in here, this is the War Room!" #
  • Every time I see a photo of Sarah Jessica Parker I keep homosexuality open, as an option. Seriously…she frightens the hell out of me. #
  • Pantless Friday! Time to show my neighbors the meaning of the term "Indecent exposure". #
  • Avatar hangover has set it. Caffeine is the only thing keeping me conscious. The perils of midnight movie premieres. #
  • Avatar exceeded my expectations. Awesome flick! #
  • At the premiere of Avatar with @thebrawnyman, and getting p0wned by AT&Ts snail-ass network. Fewer bars in more places. #
  • Preparing to see the midnight showing of Avatar with my good friend @thebrawnyman. W00t! #
  • Buying Christmas cards is challenging because I can't find a message that says "I hate all of you bastards and place a voodoo pox upon you!" #
  • We're one step closer to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 becoming reality. http://bit.ly/7d8Rfl Russian paratroopers over DC are next. #
  • Watched "The Lost Battalion" again. A truly sad tale of the U.S. Army's 77th Division, 308th Battalion in WWI. A must see movie. #
  • Creepy Santa photos. Enjoy. http://www.creepysantaphotos.com/ (via @panache) #
  • Holiday music is starting to liquify my internal organs. Just endured Kenny Rogers's "Christmas in Kentucky" on the ride home. Kill me now! #
  • There is no other word to describe AT-AT pet photos, other than delightful. Because they are delightful. http://bit.ly/10Odah #
  • New Core i7-980X Mac Pros will blow the doors off your kitchen cabinets, but won't sway me away from a 27" iMac. http://bit.ly/777bse #
  • If the radio plays that fucking "Christmas shoes" song one more time I'm converting to Judaism, moving to Israel. Waterboarding to my ears! #
  • Going back to replay Thief 3. A game that once stole my heart….and $50 of my hard earned money. http://bit.ly/8P2AJu #
  • Microsoft's new "Bing Tweets" ad campaign makes me want to rip out my eyes and urinate into the empty bleeding sockets. They're awful. #
  • HTC's Legend, successor to Hero, rocking beefier specs, improved designed, AMOLED display, and giving me a nerdgasm! http://bit.ly/8vxetk #
  • Having watched the deleted scenes from Star Trek, I understand the reason for their removal; pointless and not making a damn bit of sense. #
  • I'm using Flight Control on my iPhone http://bit.ly/VcgHh #wakoopa #
  • I swear to god, it wouldn't be the holiday without some random fat woman stepping on my fucking toes while waiting in line. Ahhhhhh!!!! #
  • On my way to do some Christmas shopping and geek out at Barnes & Noble, where I shall fondle the Nook. #
  • How the hell did Rachel Ray ever become a TV chef? Seriously, she's like Chef Boyardee with breasts. Her recipes are slop mixed in a bowl. #
  • Just finished killing aliens in Halo3 with @gwardwell. And were both sexually assaulted by our vibrating controllers. Not cool. #

  • Sweet Jesus! I just realized that Tyler Perry played a cameo role in Star Trek! Both the movie and JJ Abrams are now officially dead to me. #
  • Saw the parents today, and now getting it from both sides. Dad chastises me for not dating, and mom now says I look "sickly" – too thin. #
  • I've been told that hanging a "Do not disturb" sign on my trousers works against my sex life. So now it's "Yes, we're OPEN!" all the way. #
  • Pants. Friday. You know the drill. That's right, it's pantless Friday. Time to hang the "Do Not Disturb" sign on my trousers. #
  • Listening to "Cold Hands" by Brendan Benson. http://bit.ly/7GpTP2 Not a bad song, if I do say. And I do say. #
  • This weather gives me the urge to knock over nativity scenes and stab inflatable snowmen. Only my rage keeps me warm. Yeah, i'm that guy #
  • Thank god the arrival of winter at least forced the elderly to migrate back to Florida, leaving a slimy trail of arthritis ointment behind. #
  • Alien projector or world's largest PowerPoint presentation? http://bit.ly/62VvoQ #
  • Fucking winter weather! I've a good mind to break out my giant laser and obliterate the polar ice caps once and for all. Season's greetings. #
  • Dear God – this Star Trek DVD is taking forever to copy! It would be faster to have JJ Abrams come to my home and reenact the movie for me. #
  • Winter storm conundrum: Roads are icy, but I just learned I'm out of bar soap. Do I drive to the store, then into a ditch? Or just stink? #
  • New Boxee beta looks amazingly good, and hopefully overcomes the current release's asstastic quality. http://bit.ly/7BjDNG #
  • I'm hoping to win a copy of Billings in the @macappstorm Christmas Giveaway! http://mac.appstorm.net/ #
  • TUAW Talkcast is live right now. I'm on the show. #

  • Took the plunge and purchased an AppleTV. Then immediately hacked and installed Boxee/XBMC. Hulu, here I come. #
  • Magic Mouse has drained two AA batteries in just 35 days of use. Not good. I'm switching it off and letting it think about what it's done. #
  • Giving serious thought to buying an AppleTV instead of a Mac mini – hacking it to bits. This requires much thought, and lots of beverages. #
  • Stretched Limos are the work of the devil. They combine women, alcohol and large motor vehicles in one elongated package. A WIN, in my book. #
  • The sex-deprived part of me wants to beat Tiger Woods to death with his own golf clubs for cheating on his HOT wife. My god! She is HOT! #
  • Pantless Friday was nearly cancelled. Yet I managed to free myself of impeding clothing, in spite of this. The gods have blessed my loins. #
  • Struggling to decide what role my neglected gaming PC would best serve – Linux/RAID/VPN server, or media center PC. #
  • Does anyone out there know if Apple still includes Apple logo stickers in the box, with new products? #

  • Scarlett Johansson is hot. Seriously hot. The kind of hot that melts butter…in your pants. #
  • Working on freelance work, while watching some old Sherlock Holmes episode on Netflix in the background. #
  • Everyone seems to be buying live xmas trees today. Starting to feel like a scrooge for making no effort to decorate my apt for the holidays. #
  • Post-Thanksgiving Pantless Friday commences now – with the lingering after effects of yesterday's feast adding the urgency. Begone, pants! #
  • In the event I embrace the Muslim faith, I'm changing my name to this. http://twitpic.com/r79zz #

  • Zombie scarecrow t-shirt, from the Wizard of Oz http://bit.ly/7s0GyA #
  • Thanksgiving – only day of the year I can casually ask for breasts, thighs, and dark meat, without disapproving looks. If only sex were…ah #
  • Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. Enjoy your feast of wine, pie, poultry, and Pepto Bismol. #
  • Thankful that 400 yrs ago religious radicals from England came to this land, and stole it from its native inhabitants. God bless America. #
  • Parent visit movie theme: Bowel Wars, episode 3: the colon menace. #
  • Working late on Black Friday projects. My inner child is dying. On the other hand it delays the visit to my parents. A LOSE/WIN I suppose. #
  • Watched Transformers II with @gwardwell and @cdwardwell via @sweetwatersound. Megan Fox is hot but her lips are coated in KFC chicken grease #
  • Reminded why I use throwaway hotmail account for various website registrations. Logged in and it's full of porn spam. Not that I don't mind. #
  • Wearing lavender-colored dress shirt today. Because lavender is the most masculine of effeminate colors. #
  • RT @BrentSpiner "New Moon" makes $140 million in first weekend. And they say Americans have no taste. Hah!! #
  • Google Voice fails to translate voicemails into text accurately. Or my Dad really is watching football at Church, while eating pots and pans #
  • Let's try that again. New Moon grossed 140 million at the box office this weekend, all thanks to teenage girls and creepy goth kids. Scary #
