Welcoming @flargh to my level of aged decrepitude.

Peter Cohen @flargh:
@jeffporten Thanks. Pass the Metamucil. Where’s my heating pad?

@flargh I’ll check under my rapidly expanding ass.

@erika_owens @mkramer Heard about this tonight on an old On The Media podcast. FYI if it’s not on your radar yet. risctraining.org

Despite the many plaudits today, I still can’t defend the Hustler v. Falwell SCOTUS ruling that established sitar as free speech.

Glenn Fleishman @GlennF:
I’m still Jewish enough to say the brucha over candles and eat gelt. And then have a long discussion on what “king of the universe” means.

@GlennF Show kids the French scene from History of the World, Part 1. “It’s good to be the king!” Then debate who’s the piss boy.

“@GovChristie: Rabbi lights Hanukah Menorah at Drumthwacket. pic.twitter.com/5YBo2MPj” // Drumthwacket also 11th plague in uncut Old Testament.

Jim Dalrymple @jdalrymple:
@viticci I can’t lie. Except for about speeding.

Federico Viticci @viticci:
@jdalrymple Haha, the sad part is, I actually told my doctor that once.

Jim Dalrymple @jdalrymple:
@viticci People think I’m homeless, they’d never believe I’m a big deal on anything.

Philip Michaels @PhilipMichaels:
@jdalrymple @viticci People are so ignorant. Every schoolboy knows the Canadian government guarantees every citizen a furnished igloo.

Glenn Fleishman @GlennF:
@PhilipMichaels iGloo? Is that the new Apple television set? Why do Canadians get it first?

@GlennF @philipmichaels iGloo is the code name for the iBooks Author rev that will automatically write Horse Ebooks.

“@jowyang: Since life expectancy for an American male is 75, “over the hill” is 37.5, not 40.” // Excellent news for my 43rd birthday.

Peter Cohen @flargh:
I loved bacon before it went mainstream.

@flargh There’s a stream of bacon? Where?

Kirk McElhearn @mcelhearn:
@jeffporten @flargh Can’t you stream it with Amazon Prime?

@mcelhearn @flargh Tried that. Accidentally started a Kindle GreaseFire HD.

“@IDoubtIt: Time to remind people about Portents of Doom again. csicop.org/specialarticle…” // Unsure whether this counts as a Twitter mention.

Geoffrey Nunberg @GeoffNunberg:
For an @nprfreshair piece, what’s your Word of the Year pick? Items with legs, not 9 days wonders like gangnam or fiscal cliff.

@GeoffNunberg @nprfreshair Obamacare, as this year it *finally* was owned by the Democrats. Will attach BO to health, like FDR to New Deal.

Melody Kramer @mkramer:
Lifted heavy things, organic chemistry final tomorrow, bio wed, physics Thursday.

@mkramer <Leslie Neilsen>Good luck, we’re all counting on you.</Neilsen>

Dan Benjamin @danbenjamin:
The Capsule wallet is far and away the best wallet I’ve ever owned.

@danbenjamin At least until someone sneaks a counterfeit bill in there. Then you’ll have to switch to Gelcap.

Peter Cohen @flargh:
Doctor prescribes med which insurance covers, but won’t cover the syringe needed to inject. How am I supposed to take it, then?

@flargh Cue Alex Baldwin. “Second place: this set of steak knives.”

Michele Catalano @inthefade:
@GlennF Marriage used to be about dowries. How come no one wants to preserve the sanctity of that part of it?

@inthefade @GlennF Republican party needs to keep all of their jackasses.

@flargh Hmm. My calendar informs me that I am exactly 2 days older than you. You young hot thing, you.

Peter Cohen @flargh:
@jeffporten Enjoy your Geritol and Matlock reruns, old timer.

@flargh Only 22 years and 1 day away til sweet, sweet Cialis discounts. So there, nyah.

Michael T. Rose @MikeTRose:
Oh my goodness. Happy Hanukkah to me from my wonderfully insane spouse. pic.twitter.com/uVuBpkh5

Shawn King @ShawnKing:
@MikeTRose That’s different from a Fleshlight…right?

@ShawnKing @miketrose Depends on how often you stick your dick in a furnace.

Sarah Silverman @SarahKSilverman:
So happy to hear about another 22 y/o actress cast to play opposite an actor in his 40’s!
Not gross at all

@SarahKSilverman Shhh. We middle-aged single guys need constant validation that we’re not at all creepy. You’ll cause a panic.
