tweet tweet – stfu
I’m torn between liking technology and hating it with a passion – there doesn’t seem to be any middle ground for me. I’ve always been so curious what makes so many people so interested in what other people do and how they do it. Frankly, I don’t care about the Octomom and how she’s made so many ridiculously terrible decisions and there was a doctor that helped with this. I don’t care about Britney Spears’ beaver getting caught on camera – if she wants to go commando let it be damn it! This crazy of twitter is only encouraging this nonsense, I don’t have the slightest idea how to twitter or even where to begin but I do know for a fact that I would NEVER start. If there was someone in this world that is so interested in my life that they would need up to the minute news on what I’m doing I would have to punch them in the face. I’m definitely a technogeek I have zero need to be so in touch with the rest of the world. I just want to live my life in peace without people peering in to my oh-so-boring day-to-day life. Look all I’m saying is lay off the fucking twitter you damn tweet twats.

McGruff Survives a Beat-Down
Looking on Fark this afternoon and I could not stop laughing when I read one of their headlines for a Washington News article today.
“DC bus driver gets off his bus, gives McGruff the Crime Dog a beatdown in front of a bunch of kids, then gets back on his bus and drives away”
Freakin’-A-Hilarious!
“First the Chick-fil-A cow received a beat-down in Fredericksburg, Va. Now, someone takes a shot at everyone’s favorite crime-fighting pooch.
Word of advice for new-look Screech: Hire A-Rod’s cousin ASAP.
McGruff the Crime Dog was the latest victim of the mascot mayhem.
Police said their four-legged hero absorbed a blow to the head over the weekend from a Metro bus driver in front of a group of children but didn’t lose his cool, according to the Washington Examiner.
McGruff, who was actually District officer Tyrone Hardy in costume, was handing out flyers to kids in northwest Washington Saturday when bus driver Shawn Brim, 38, stopped, got out and adjusted his mirrors and then cold-cocked McGruff in the head with a closed fist, according to a police report.
A woozy McGruff staggered. Kids screamed. The alleged attacker hopped back on his bus and drove off.
Other police officers who were there with McGruff and watched the alleged assault quickly tracked down the bus and the driver.
Brim, 38, later told a supervisor that he was trying “to be funny,” Metro spokeswoman Candace Smith told The Examiner on Monday.
“But nobody here finds it funny, believe me,” Smith said. “That kind of behavior is not tolerated.”
Brim was charged with simple assault.
The Examiner said Hardy had a swollen cheek but was more concerned that the alleged attack disturbed the kids who saw it.
No word on whether the Racing Presidents’ security team has been placed on heightened alert.”
