Awesome faux-billboards from BP faux-twitter account
I am Doofus.
It’s 100% true.
Though in many past instances I have referred to myself alternately as “clever”, “brilliant”, a “genius”, and one or twice even “not just a hat rack”, it turns out I was over-estimating.
As you may know, I help monitor Twitter traffic for my employer, and so during the day I have the work-related feeds and my personal feed on screen. Oftentimes, links will be included in a tweet, and I’ll just favorite it to review later when I’m at home.
Never know what someone will link to, after all.
…and yes, this means that you will never know that someone you admire has linked to your blog.
….and sometimes because you don’t know all of this is happening, you respond to the words in their tweet without clicking the link, trying to sound like a joiner-in’er, a little “hey, look at me, I’m also interested in the topic you’re talking about, please loop me in”, and instead only end up sounding like a doofus.
It’s rewarding to see that so many people have connected with essay I wrote about passion on the Wooster site: http://bit.ly/c8Wn89

Yes, you doofus, he already knows you wrote about it. He linked the damn thing.
Way to be a doofus, Ryan.
Knowing is half the battle.
P.S. Thanks for the link Marc. I’ll be less dumb next time.

I wish my life was glamorous enough to receive tweets like this.
Clearly, by glamorous, I mean “full of great tasting food”.
Maybe I should revisit that “Food Research” job possibility….
Thanks @Kari_Vee

cupcake could be a euphemism for brains. From now on, when yelling at stupid people, I will say “use your cupcake!”

Learned about Twitter on Thursday and it’s been off-to-the-races since then. Now to just avoid this:
