You may have already seen this (un-embeddable) video — title: “everything’s amazing, nobody’s happy” — of  comedian Louis CK on Late Night with Conan O’Brien. (Hat tip to moonrat.) If not, do that now and then return here. We’ll wait.

[whistling, staring into space, picking up newspaper and re-reading Dilbert, Doonesbury, Get Fuzzy, and For Better or Worse] […dozing…] [looking up, startled]

Ah, good. You’re back. What’d you think?

Now, with that under your belt, let’s turn to this one from Geek Entertainment TV, “Scandalous Twitter Habits: Part Two”:

Also pretty funny, right? (Be sure to watch Part One, as well.)

But I must say, in the wake of the Louis CK rant I suffered a few moments of psychological dislocation among the giggles and snorts.

If you haven’t already noticed, by the way, America’s Finest News Source has its own Twitter feed. As far as I can tell, this was the first tweet there:

The Onion reluctantly expands its Inter-net presence via Face-book. Damn the lot of you! http://urltea.com/2u7n

(Because even in dizzyingly high-speed times, a sense of history is important.)

And while we’re on the subject, if you’re on Twitter: what was your first Tweet? especially the first one which didn’t mention Twitter, tweets, twittering, etc.? Mine:

Work! Cereal to begin.

You can really tell when somebody’s a writer, huh?
