@trib Alas I must disagree. I find Dawkins unnecessarily rude and offensive. It detracts from his arguments.
@renailemay Can you ask Dawkins why he has to be so rude to people? He’s such an obnoxious arsehole!
Has God smote Melbourne yet?
OH: “While I was vacuuming today I was watching this movie, and it was B&W, and it was about this woman who married this man.”
There are squealy people.
I think by age 40 you should at least try to use complete, grown-up words.
He just agreed to more champagne, nasally whining “I guess I can have another sham.” Kill him.
Considering options. There’s so MANY of them!
Central.
Mobile: Stanmore station; Central station; SEKRIT excursion through various parts of the Sydney basin.
BTW, while the protests in Bangkok started yesterday, if there’s any violence that’ll likely kick off tomorrow. From what I’ve read, anyway.
That total of THB 4000 is a little over AUD/USD 100. Not bad for a weekend’s shouting, if you’re a poor farmer.

@shevstar Your doco for Radio National is already online as a podcast! http://bit.ly/atCC0o I’ll listen later.
Mind you, calling it “moments” from Newtown’s cafés is misleading. It’s a 10 to 15-minute walk.
Looking at the photos & plans for that house, it’s larger than it looks from the front, and the original art deco interior is intact.
Correction. $1,056,000. http://bit.ly/c5BLmG
This is the house which just sold for $1 million. http://bit.ly/c5BLmG
Can hear the auction of a house a few doors down. It went for exactly $1 million. Under the flightpath to runway 16R.
@ApostrophePong I get bored with photographers / filmmakers with one trick repeated forever. I’m looking at you too, Ken Done.
Yes @ApostrophePong the Sydney one’s OK http://bit.ly/bp96az A shame it doesn’t get outside 2km from the Bridge until the last 15 seconds.
However @ApostrophePong as a commenter notes Australian Keith Loutit has been doing similar videos for ages. http://bit.ly/15HskS
You may like this video of New York @ApostrophePong http://bit.ly/cGYEXL even though its fake tilt-shift effect is a dreadful cliché now.
Well @SnarkyPlatypus that’s what you get when you’re fired up with the power and the passion of… Guy Sebastian. “Maintain the Beige!”
Indeed, @bryceroney, $20 in money. As opposed to $20 in gold, shares, store credit, blow jobs etc.

It appears @smperris that they will be paying $20 in money for each transaction, which is nice. Until the police visit me, anyway.
Someone in the Ukraine wants me to help process their customers’ PayPal payments. That sounds like a good job.
Many lovely photos of Kim Jong-il with cows, plastic buckets, pork products etc. http://bit.ly/dh0ET0
@SnarkyPlatypus Heureusement, je ne suis pas au courant des activités de Mme Bingle. Je suis béni à bien des égards.

For some reason I have the urge to use the phrase “irritatingly cranky Irish cunt” in a sentence.
It’s the core problem with tweeting conferences @deptofinternets @renailemay: people try to out-sound-bite each other. http://bit.ly/akHWiN
My last two tweets BOTH make sense in and of themselves. Simple, declarative sentences. It’s not that difficult, people.
I have farted.
I have spoken.
A tweet should make sense in and of itself, for the benefit of anyone who might stumble across it. Otherwise, use DMs or email.
@franksting Oh Tweetdeck handles threading OK, I just couldn’t be arsed having to click to see WTF you’re talking about. :P
@franksting Oh by all means disagree! :) But, um, about what? Norton Anti Virus?
@tardis_42 You said if you were choosing anti-virus for Mac, Norton would not be your choice? Care to expand? By email may be better.
Indeed @rorybaust and it was Edison’s aggressive patent suits which caused the movie industry to move away to Hollywood.
“DELETE FROM wp_comments WHERE `comment_approved` = 0” means instant joy.
Think Apple’s developer rules restrictive? Try Edison’s! Need HIS permission to make ANY movie. http://bit.ly/cLAQ9E
Oh dear @rod_benson are puns that bad acceptable, even this early in the day? :)
I do hope everyone followed Rule Number One last night. http://bit.ly/axoiDS
@chrismayer If you think http://bit.ly/bETMcB “takes the cake for stupidest utterance on twitter for a long time” you’re truly not trying.
Emerges. Like a tapeworm from Megan Gale. Lose weight now? Ask me how!

Anyway, just cos the anti-theists are swarming in Melbourne, I don’t want this to dominate my thoughts this weekend.
@franksting There’s a difference between “passionate” and “rude”. And, indeed, “being a cunt”. Dawkins is somewhere between 2 and 3.
@SnarkyPlatypus Sheoosh you! :)
