FAVE RANDOM TWEET August 18th

FAVE RANDOM TWEET OF AUGUST 18th

youropera

This is not an actual single tweet, that so inspires Sir Twitalot today, but rather what the Royal Opera in England is doing.

They are creating an opera based on tweets submitted by the public, a twitter written opera, 140 characters at a time.

TWITTER OPERA

Sure, it reeks of opportunism and publicity hunting, but it is also a great way to involve us modern folks with our hip hop ears and our shoe-gazing guitars to get involved in a form of music that used to be the pop of its day.


CHECK OUT THE OPERA BLOG TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT IT.

Bravo UK Opera!

You are our fave random tweet of the day!

I HATE TWITTER MORE THAN A FAT BITCH ON A TREADMILL!

You know, Sir Twitalot has been noticing the hate for Twitter's problems and limitations lately, and there is a lot of twitter hate as well as love on tweets.

Just go to search.twitter.com and type in "hate twitter" and you will see.

But most of it is pretty run of the mill tweets, nothing special or graphic, nothing like el tweeto of marquis426 above.

He hates twitter in a very odd way.

Why would he be hatin' on an overweight woman who is working out, attempting to get thinner, and healthier, one would ask?

  • Unless Marquis426 is a chubby chaser.
  • Unless she is taking up time on a treadmill that he wanted to get on and work out himself?
  • Unless he has a fierce dislike of Jell-O and she reminds him of that dessert?
Sir Twitalot does not know, but he does know this is the most interesting Twitter Hate Tweet he has seen today, so it is his fave.

Keep on hatin in a lovable way, Marquis426!



Why bother Tweeting?

Sometimes I wonder what good is twitter really, besides protesting in absentia in Iran?

A blogger bitches about it. A valuable read, I believe.


WHY HE DOESN'T USE TWITTER

Twitter Lawsuit Watch - Number 1

Twitter figured they would get sued for copyright infringement because everyone has similar ideas,
and here is the first one -


FROM TECH RADIUM
which is the self-proclaimed industry leader in Mass Notification
(i thought that was lady who makes the Schedule for the local Catholic Church.)


TechRadium, Inc. provides a mass notification and emergency alerting systems to governmental, educational, commercial and non-profit entities.

Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government.


Sir Twitalot found this gem of a fave random tweet in the southern hemisphere.

A perfect fit for August 15th, this reference to the Arthurian legends as well as to all strange women who lay down and give out weapons in modern days, like Lady 9mmGlockenspiel, or the Dame Kalashnikov, is a nice late summer, or late winter bit of whimsy of a tweet by kirrilyfred.

Given the 24-7 news cycle of non-stop blathering, with pundits pontificating about nothing, it's nice to get a tweet about the roots of the problem. Should our leaders be chosen by metaphorical ladies in a lake? Methinks not. It should be done on the golf course or pool table.

On the other hand, maybe it would yield better leaders than we've have the last few decades.

Either way, we hope kirrilyfred keeps on tweetin'. Those who are chosen for fave random tweet of the day are mystical and powerful themselves!
