my tweeting year


I started using twitter this year, about the same time as I got an iphone. I thought “if I’m going to be a massive tool, I should at least be the best tool I can be.”

I’ve used 3 different twitter apps, 2 web apps, and tweeted 450 times in 189 days. Just over 2 tweets a day on average.

I’ve whittled down the tweets, excluding retweets, replies, and responses in to a good representation of my year in tweeting.

The first one is my first ever, and the last one is my most recent, those in between range from banal status updates to banal statements to banal jokes.

Out of the 46 tweets below:
17 are regarding food, drink, or the after effects of same.
8 contain swears
10 contain words that aren’t real words
2 contain the word “scabs”
11 are about music
1 is a quote. But it’s by Van Gogh. And it’s incredible.

fir the sake of xmas

rockefeller centre, new york.




this tree is scouted out and selected from the north american continent (this year from connecticut).

it is topped by a 3 metre 250 kg monster swarovski crystal star.

it has probably got undiscovered native wildlife living in its branches.


trafalgar square, london.



this tree is given by the city of oslo as a token of norwegian gratitude to the people of london for their assistance during the years 1940-45.

a tree has been given annually since 1947.

it is decorated in traditional norwegian style with 500 white bulbs. since 2008 low wattage halogen bulbs have been used.

i appreciate the sentiment of the tree here in london, but norway… what. the. fuck?

norway, your “tree” is like that fugly vase that aunty noreen gave us one year and we have to drag it out every year when you visit lest we offend you.

it looks like last year's tree. it looks like it's been through the wash.

this is LONDON dammit! not some backwater village centre. surely london deserves better than this.

thanks, norway… you’ve ruined christmas.

grab what now?

oh, now this is becoming ridiculous.

look at this:



"grab hot gifts" the bottle says.

yeah, hot gifts. hot gifts and a face full of christmas cheer while you're down there.

this is an image from the 2L bottle. it's basically a high def version of the one on the can. on this one you can see santa is quite flushed from the effort of spraying all over the place. but is he a little pleased with himself?

you bet your giant, exploding, christmas cracker he is, kids.

metro fail

stop the presses!

i guess the metro is edited by lifer city-folk who think all quadropedal north american predators look the same.

i've added some helpful additions here to this news article in todays metro for those of you interested in the accuracy of the fourth estate.
