Alice, best use of Twitter is not about communicating personal mundanities. It’s about maintaining a good signal-to-noise ratio and passing on information that deserves more attention. Follow only people who have interesting things to say and only tweet and retweet useful information.

When I first read that I thought you said you let off in the toilet. I was going to say too much information. I think I’m still going to say that. And Reuben is far from innocent, as you well know…

bollocks i left off the t in ‘tollit’. all those classicists will be laughing at me now.
and you know what, as far as life purposes go, i’m quite happy with ruining your day by making you lose the game. it’s somewhat satisfying, especially when the odd innocent bystander gets taken down as well…

Congratulations Alice, you made me lose the game with an acrostic, and a very invenive one at that. You’ve finally found a purpose for your life. Perhaps you should tweet it…

gervais finally has a point, it seems. i can see its usefulness, &
abusus non tolli usum, as they say. but still, i will
manage without this one device for a very simple reason: it
evades me why i’d want to reveal to others my personal mundanities.

(like acrostics, sal?)
