  • 10:27:22: #shutup nutrisystem! of course there's "no counting, no measuring", the food is pre-counted, pre-measured, & yet "results not typical"
  • 10:29:45: #shutup diets! fixing "overeating" & "underexercising" doesn't work very often cuz the relationship betw food & bodies is more complicated
  • 10:42:54: my mother gave me talking bobbleheads of Capt. Kirk and Mr. Spock for xmas #startrek
  • 10:45:09: sorry, i don't think terrorizing the terrorists is the solution. swinging at the bully would have just got me beat up

  • 10:47:26: Jane Velez Mitchell has the best mullet on tv! when she smiles, she's gorgeous!
  • 10:49:27: #shutup Jane Velez Mitchell! ur promo "unless you're addicted, u'd drink shoe polish if it contains alcohol!" doesnt make sense
  • 10:59:13: we're making too big a deal about the number of Tiger Woods girlfriends. he didnt have all 14 at the same time!

  • 11:11:23: #shutup gingko biloba! the alleged benefits for gingko were always at best folklore, at worst totally made up by marketers. we are gullible!
  • 11:15:14: if you dated a ventriloquist, would u find his throwing his voice to sound like ur snatch is talking funny?
  • 11:31:31: @HereticChick what is that a picture of?
  • 11:40:58: hey, FAA, i have an explosive device in my lap too, but all it needs is heat to set it off! in fact fire would be counter-productive.
  • 11:49:13: #shutup nutrisystem! starving people do not have more energy. if they did, prisoners at concentration camps could have torn down the fences
  • 11:51:37: we are becoming such cheapskates :( the news constantly covering how to save money is un-american
  • 12:00:33: oops, misspelled ginkgo
  • 12:00:56: #shutup ginkgo biloba! the alleged benefits for ginkgo were always at best folklore, at worst totally made up by marketers. we are gullible!
  • 13:23:35: @skwirl42 why would u say that? that's what money's for. american consumption puts the world to work
  • 13:25:51: @skwirl42 why are we just discovering the need to cut consumption? sounds like a revelation, not an economic theory
  • 13:28:32: when i go to a party, i immed have an adult drink or two, then have soft drinks for the rest of the eve, just cuz i get tired of drinking
  • 13:33:43: @skwirl42 my orig point was that u can always tell when 2 ppl are not intimate. the tv/movie humor lies in it being obvious = cheap laffs
  • 15:27:59: #shutup Washington state! it is nonsense and unscientific to blame particular foods for obesity. candy can be a part of a healthy diet
  • 15:43:06: heard a song on "Big Hair Wensday" i hadnt heard before ♫ Tell Me What You Want - Zebra http://lala.com/zm0g
  • 15:56:05: @skwirl42 we aren't there yet. but i say that price is only 1 criterion and shouldnt be the only 1 mentioned, value is a better criterion
  • 15:58:45: #shutup HLN! scientific reasons for eating dark chocolate & drinking coffee? we are omnivores, we eat everything! do it becuz u want to!
  • 16:01:39: #shutup smart4life! if subst cookies 4 food helps u lose weight, it's not becuz of the "fruits, veggies, wheat, & milk" in the damn things
  • 16:09:37: i must admit i like the freecreditreport tv commercial jingles. i consider the commercials themselves deceitful tho
  • 16:12:45: ♫ White Christmas - The Drifters http://lala.com/zVBh refreshingly funky version

  • 17:05:48: @nuckingfutsmama faint praise, no?
  • 17:10:15: i have no objection to turned milk other than the taste. some ppl drink curdled milk, they call it "clobber" or "clabber"
  • 17:16:22: wasnt thr a movie just a month ago or so, abt yet another couple who pretend 2 B engaged, 2 save 1 from being deported? sandra bullock?

  • 17:34:59: @skwirl42 no, that value & price are different things. the value of building a golden gate bridge as opposed to it's price
  • 17:38:36: @skwirl42 i'm saying they only talk about the price of an incandescent light bulb, not the value
  • 17:40:17: @skwirl42 incandescent bulbs might have a value over LED lights, but it is being overwhelmed by talk about the price difference
  • 17:40:43: @skwirl42 as if price is the ONLY consideration
  • 17:46:31: @skwirl42 i get McDonald's deluxe chicken sandwich rather than their cheap 1 becuz ther's a difference worth paying 4. thats value not price
  • 17:48:41: @skwirl42 when you consider only price, you may not be getting the best value. news just hawked cheap champaign but every brand is different
  • 17:50:06: @skwirl42 durability when appropriate. LED bulbs allegedly last 10yrs, but who needs a bulb to last that long?
  • 17:52:17: @skwirl42 that's why our current emphasis on cheapness is bugging me. price is usually not the only criterion
  • 17:54:27: @00N8 u managing to knock down any of the pins?
  • 18:00:49: all we need is mass-marketing of generators. the aftermath of natural disaster wil be environmental disaster when all those generators go on
  • 18:06:45: @skwirl42 sure, that's why american consumption has great value. we must spend for the greater good!
  • 18:10:54: @skwirl42 me 2. but when i need a new car, i doubt i'll automatically buy cheapest car out there, cuz i'll consider other things than price
  • 18:12:42: @skwirl42 meanwhile, wal-mart pretty much says "shop here, we're cheaper" as if that's all that should matter
  • 18:15:05: my torrent download is pathetic. 23 seeds, 71 peers, and all i can get is 40 kB/s. that's about 1/4 of my bandwidth
  • 18:16:26: @VariantVal i fugured u must have got ur margaritas
  • 18:18:12: @skwirl42 the healthcare system is definitely broken. idk what we should do, i only know we cant do nothing
  • 18:21:16: @VariantVal sounds like u r busy. what kind of stores?
  • 18:24:17: @VariantVal cosmoceutical, eh?
  • 18:26:24: @VariantVal i love women made-up, i enjoy watching women put it on. sometimes i think men get cheated, we cant add some color
  • 18:31:31: i'm downloading a torrent & files w/dl mgr, i wish i could tell the dl mgr 2 let torrent have all the bandwidth it wants, take whats left
  • 18:33:19: @VariantVal it works for me!
  • 18:51:01: @MzStarrBurst not me. eating is good, it's fun, and it's sensual
  • 18:51:54: @jennifurret hurray!

  • 19:03:29: @PartTimeBrat durn, everybody loves me! i guess i havent made it then.
  • 19:05:31: @mirandachale 2nd course, spaghetti-os!
  • 19:11:26: hope it's not dead! RT @blakeshelton: Either this coyote finds the bed of truck really cozy... Or it's dead... http://yfrog.com/4gv8kkj
  • 19:26:44: LOL at the latest MeowMix commercial, the cat playing the piano

  • 20:06:15: the ave girl grows 8" and gains 40 lbs in puberty
  • 20:11:02: @66Betty i just got that from a PBS show "A Girl's Life" on now
  • 20:17:35: this hispanic girl had a traditional 15th-birthday party in which her slippers are replaced with heels to mark her entry to womanhood
  • 20:20:27: cyberbullying among girls
  • 20:26:05: the parents' solution to their girl getting cyberbullied is to take away her txting privileges
  • 20:28:14: @66Betty i gained significant weight in my mid 20's, havent really gained any since. i still weigh what it says on my drivers license!
  • 20:31:12: girls fighting girls is not taken as seriously as boys fighting boys

#what3gifts would wise men give a new-born messiah today? i say pizza, sam adams boston lager, and a wii
9mill x 366 only = 3.3billion RT @mikejmartin: You share your birthday with at least 9 million other people in the world.
@mikejmartin i'd think an ave of 16million is born on each day (6billion/366)
@mikejmartin not to be a nitpicker. i heard that sept22 is the most common birthday in ohio--which is 9mo after the new yrs parties
newslady just said "there were 5 kids in the car, all under the age of 18"
too bad starbucks! speedway gas stations compare their coffee to fast-food places in their commercials
@bck same for @twhirl
facebook or twitter is not an addiction. why is 6hrs on twitter worse somehow than 6hrs watching football?
@Jamberta i find i pretty much ignore tv while i'm looking at twitter. i keep lists of shows i've seen & i dont know if i should count...
@Jamberta the tv shows on in the background
@VariantVal i havent watched a football game this season, the superbowl is usually the only game i watch. not a sports fan
@Jamberta absolutely! we're already halfway there! "More than half of all insured Americans...are now on prescription medications"
@EmReturns we definitely make judgemts about how ppl shld spend their time. some ppl spend hrs/day working out! & that's encouraged!
@VeronikaG back when i was a kid, they worried about my comic book addiction
i dont care what they say, i'm sure the women scanner operators at airports will be saving my scans
this local news today has had stories about cutting back on facebook/twitter and adding more workouts
@VariantVal were there any saints in the dressing room at the time?
277,000,000 americans have a cell phone. the ave cell phone call lasts 2 minutes. this yr we sent 3/4 of a quadrillion text msgs
@VariantVal cool! i'd be too chicken too (but i'd be sneaking into the lady tennis players locker room)
"More than half of all insured Americans, children and adults, are now on prescription medications..." http://zi.ma/b5428c
@VariantVal sure
@VariantVal but that's probably what balloon boy's dad thought too!
@VariantVal and u and ur friend got an autograph. worked out just fine!
@VariantVal not being blonde, cute w/ boobs is a serious disadvantage!
@Jamberta i do med my asthma, i could get meds for OCD & hi blood pressure but choose not to at the mo
@Jamberta and see, u haven't killed anyone in weeks!
@tw3nty3ight howdy from Hillsboro OH!
@tw3nty3ight how's it going? hows things in wilm & clarksville? yay, no cancer!
an even more deluxe story on local news about "facebook addiction". i think calling other things "addiction" dilutes the meaning of the word
we're increasing security at airports cuz we're very good at locking the barn after the horses have been stolen
5 of the past 6 commercials have been car commercials: ford, audi, hyundai, ---, chrysler, then another ford
MSM is now calling it the "underpants bomb"
RT @briandgregory: It is frustrating to me that some aren't satisfied that we can make our own decisions about right & wrong. @CyberLizard
those who would give up liberty for security end up with neither.
we havent minded the piling on of security measures becuz they've been incremental & it's a small price to pay
what if u need to get to the airport 3hrs befoe ur flight? 6hrs? 10hrs? it could happen
RT @PartTimeBrat: If you have never replied to anyone on your twitter page, did you miss the "social" in social media?
@LilHappyHeathen i've only been on 1 flight, back in 1994, but those hrs waiting waiting seem burdensome to me
soon everyone boarding an airplane will have to strip under supervision and put on approved coveralls
@Lilykily stealing a player's condoms, that's low
Jennifer Love Hewitt's Ghost Whisperer wears high heels all the time
i love to hear women talk about "trying to get pregnant"!
@Leazzel pardon my dirty-mindedness but i just like the euphemism referring to the *process* of getting pregnant
@Leazzel mea culpa!
i use to drool over Valerie Bertinelli when she was underage, expected her to become a classic beauty movie star, be famous for decades
@Leazzel see, twitter is an educational experience!
dont like the Ford spokesman. for 1 thing, he's smug, for another, he doesnt take off his hat indoors
arbitration has reinstated 16 of 18 suspended policemen in the past decade in #Cincinnati
