Three WAY too controversial and divisive topics you should never, EVER discuss on the 'net: Religion. Politics. The "Monty Hall" problem.
| @guywithabike Okay, good point. :) But usually, it signals "Open Mic Night at the Chuckle Hut in Dover, Delaware." |
|
| @timeyles Because "The Simpsons" goes beyond "Homer is a stupid, insensitive jerk" and tries for "...and here's why Marge loves him anyway:" |
|
| @bynkii Comedy? I think I've seen a line like that in a Terms Of Service agreement. :) |
|
| @greggscott "Simpsons," "South Park" and "Venture Brothers" do things that are DIFFICULT. "Bart Sells His Soul" was a HUGE creative risk. |
|
| Standing in front of a comedy audience and doing a bunch of fart, sex, pedophile, violence & gay jokes is as safe and easy as comedy gets. |
|
| @John_Muir I do think Seth McFarlane has exactly the right response to critics like me: "I understand what our audience likes. You don't." |
|
| @greggscott - I just don't see FG writers taking many risks, or working very hard to get things just right. One personal opinion, of course. |
|
| @John_Muir I wish they'd do the "Family Guy" podcast again! It was always entertaining. Great behind-the-scenes stuff. |
|
| The _writing_ on "Family Guy" might be cheap, cynical and lazy, but the show's animators are clearly people who work hard and have fun. |
|
| Do you think Michael Palin is sick of jokey friends sending him US headline clippings yet? ("Palin describes self as 'Bulldog In Lipstick'") |
|
| @rstevens I haven't been to O'Rourke's since before the fire. It's definitely the "Lunch" stop on the Triple Crown. |
|
| @blankbaby When I set off on the New England Diner Triple Crown, I'll post the itinerary and invite all interested Twitterers to join me! |
|
| And I proudly say that I got to 10K honestly: not once did I stump for Followers, apart from simply mentioning my ID on occasion. |
|
| 10,000 followers! You know what this means, don't you? Twitter sends me on...A THREE-STATE DINER ROADTRIP!!! (♫ "Price Is Right" theme ♫) ... |
|
| It's been a while since I reminded you to tell somebody you love them. Isn't today a great day to make some phone calls? |
|
| @vigilant Why continue to write posts for a site that was broken? |
|
| @dnanian Me, too! I launched Ecto and MarsEdit for the first time in months and immediately found 14 posts-in-progress from April! |
|
| I am going to a diner for strawberry pancakes. I am close to another free breakfast, but technically, this one has nothing to do w/Twitter. |
|
| @dpopeck Absolutely...thanks! |
