New casino policy post-Boston: no backpacks. Strictly enforced after only seven hours of walking around the casino with a backpack.

• Conan O’Brien:
  Hey @BenFranklin… technically, the first person to be electrocuted discovered electricity.

@ConanOBrien @benfranklin Ben still wins for French whores.

• Seth Mnookin:
  He was released. “@JohnLloydTaylor: @sethmnookin what happened to the naked guy in boston? Why does so much of this story make no sense?”

• zach:
  @sethmnookin why was there shooting if sus2 was in the boat the whole time? Everyone saying he was unarmed.

• Seth Mnookin:
  Really? ‘Everyone’? Or Internet nutters? MT @zt46: @sethmnookin why shooting if sus2 was in the boat? Everyone saying he was unarmed.

• Paul Peppers:
  @sethmnookin how did bos police “know” it was sus2 in boat (when firing flashbangs) as opposed to (yes longshot) a 3rd party

• Seth Mnookin:
  All they knew was it was someone who fired shots at them. MT @ppepp: @sethmnookin how did police know sus2 in boat when firing flash-bangs?

@sethmnookin I was surprised that so many people called flash-bangs non lethal. Not so at close range.

• Glenn Fleishman:
  Beecher’s cheese about half off. Why? I don’t care. I bought a huge slab. http://yfrog.com/kjtvpzyj 

• Dan Moren:
  @GlennF Bought my mom and aunt cheese knives from there when I was last in SEA (it’s their family name, my middle name).

• Glenn Fleishman:
  @dmoren Hilarious! They are the Apple of cheeses, by which I mean they have obscene profit margins for what is an exceptional product.

@GlennF @dmoren $10 a pound! Clearly, this is a man flushed with Jeopardy success.

• Glenn Fleishman:
  @jeffporten @dmoren But half off! A bargain. It is the best cheese in some ways.

@GlennF @dmoren I judge all my cheeses by the ease of removal of the cellophane slice wrap.

• Glenn Fleishman:
  @jeffporten @dmoren Cellphone slices?

@GlennF @dmoren only when I buy the off-off-brand. Cheap, if a bit chewy.

• Kirk McElhearn:
  @jeffporten @GlennF @dmoren It must be tough living in a country without Good Cheese.

@mcelhearn @glennf @dmoren it must be tough living in a country without good nachos.

• Kirk McElhearn:
  @jeffporten @glennf @dmoren Nope, not at all.

@mcelhearn @glennf @dmoren I eat well when I’m in Europe, but I’m usually craving something horribly American when I get back.

• Kirk McElhearn:
  @jeffporten @glennf @dmoren You can get a lot of American food in most of Europe.

• Kirk McElhearn:
  @jeffporten @glennf @dmoren I’ve never seen Twinkies though, over here.

@mcelhearn @glennf @dmoren sure, but why would you?

• Kirk McElhearn:
  @jeffporten @glennf @dmoren Because there is so much other American food.

@mcelhearn @glennf @dmoren these days, neither do we.

• dylan rice-leary:
  @ZakSmithSabbath – it’s more smarts than size. Pitbulls cld choke us with the chain we walk em on if they were capable of thinking it thru

• Zak Smith:
  .@dylearium But don’t you think that evolution would’ve given them (or at least pigs) that instinctive tactic if we were as slow as Huts?

• Avram Grumer:
  .@ZakSmithSabbath @dylearium On the other hand, maybe Jabba was addled by drugs and booze?

• heresiarch:
  @avram @ZakSmithSabbath @dylearium He was kind of a late-stage Hutt as well, wasn’t he? They’re more sprightly when young.

• tnielsenhayden:
  . @heresiarch @avram @ZakSmithSabbath @dylearium I’ve always assumed Jabba was notably debauched. Being kinky for female humans is bad form.

@tnielsenhayden @heresiarch @avram @zaksmithsabbath @dylearium I’ve always assumed Jabba didn’t care & that was the invention of fanservice.

• Josh Centers:
  Interesting how quick the 60 Minutes account was suspended. Does Twitter usually ban hacked accounts?

@jcenters if it took more than an hour, would have to rename the account.

• Josh Centers:
  @jeffporten Good point. Two hours would be 120 Minutes, and that’s a whole other show.

• Marcia Hofmann:
  lol RT @HuffingtonPost Fox News accidentally claimed Zooey Deschanel was one of the Boston Bombing suspects http://huff.to/15rVbUi 

@marciahofmann A few journalists were trying to confirm that picture. Unsure if it was Photoshop.

• Karen Lopez:
  And, yes, that last tweet was snark.

@datachick “All men” has a larger evidentiary base than “all Muslims”.

• Karen Lopez:
  @jeffporten That’s my point.

@datachick Oh. Well, chalk one up for tweeting the obvious.

• Wil Wheaton:
  I want to start a Land of the Lost convention and call it Chaka Con.

• Joe Kissell:
  @wilw Wow, you make one pun about Land of the Lost and everyone decides to pylon… #ChakaCon2013

@joekissell @wilw Anyone who’ll Marshall the Will to attend #ChakaCon2013, Holly back!

• Daniel Jalkut:
  Walking around Montréal, people-watching. Had an “I can’t believe these people all have health insurance” moment, then my head exploded.

• Scott Morrison:
  @danielpunkass sorry but head explosions aren’t covered for visitors under Canadian Health care

• Daniel Jalkut:
  @smorr Fucking Canada!

@danielpunkass @smorr Check your wallet; if the money looks like Monopoly cash, you may be eligible for the insurance rider.
