Is anyone on Twitter?

I just got an account, and I need to get some practical experience on it. A job I am applying for is basically asking for someone to use social media to advertise for their theatre productions, and while I am conversant with mucho media, I hadn't jumped the Twitter train yet, so...

Doesn't Mischa Collins have a pretty fun one? And Fake AP Style Book?

Anyone else? (profile addy is good, if you don't want it on the board!)

Thanks ever so.

I'm @alterjess, and I know there are other Buffistas I follow.

From The Onion: New Study Reveals Most Children Unrepentant Sociopaths

MINNEAPOLIS—A study published Monday in The Journal Of Child Psychology And Psychiatry has concluded that an estimated 98 percent of children under the age of 10 are remorseless sociopaths with little regard for anything other than their own egocentric interests and pleasures.

According to Dr. Leonard Mateo, a developmental psychologist at the University of Minnesota and lead author of the study, most adults are completely unaware that they could be living among callous monsters who would remorsely exploit them to obtain something as insignificant as an ice cream cone or a new toy.

"The most disturbing facet of this ubiquitous childhood disorder is an utter lack of empathy," Mateo said. "These people—if you can even call them that—deliberately violate every social norm without ever pausing to consider how their selfish behavior might affect others. It's as if they have no concept of anyone but themselves."

...

Because children are so skilled at mimicking normal human emotions and will say anything without consideration for accuracy or truth, Mateo said that people often don't realize that they've been exploited until it is too late. Though he maintained that anyone can fall victim to a child's egocentric behavior, Mateo warned that grandmothers were especially susceptible to the self- serving machinations of tiny little sociopaths.

A few weeks ago, Liv went to the library with her grandpa. While there, they took a trip to the restroom. Liv did her business but when she came out of the stall she asked her grandfather, "Grandpa, my vagina itches. Is it ok if I scratch it?"

This wouldn't have been nearly as funny if the two young guys that happened into the restroom during that conversation hadn't appeared.

But they can be so funny! t /short-timer
