What I Tweeted, 2011-08-28 Edition

August 28, 2011 by krisis

My tweets of the last week:

  • @SamuelTsui We have you on repeat in our office! Is there a tutorial from you/Kurt on mixing the King of Anything style multi-box videos? #
  • I'd ask for a few extra hrs in my day but I used them last night to watch Star Trek: Next Generation on Netflix, so I don't deserve any more #
  • Are you a web designer w/5+yrs experience in HTML, CSS, CMS, & managing clients? Join my team! http://t.co/bQWkUtl @ or PM me w/?s #
  • Note: That's not a position for interactive developers, as that team is full at the moment. We're talking about web content development/mgmt #
  • @lisamay77 Because (at first, at least) it makes WAY MORE SENSE as one giant neverending movie than weekly episodes. Breaks down in S3-4. in reply to lisamay77 #
  • @arcluna I think I mostly watched from Seasons 3-7, so this early stuff is totally hilarious to me. in reply to arcluna #
  • @lisamay77 I'm not saying it gets BAD, I'm just saying they start to take advantage of time between episodes for you to think/research ;0 in reply to lisamay77 #
  • @drawonthewalls We had the most possible fun! We really need to hang out with you sometime at length. in reply to drawonthewalls #
  • So funny I cried RT @Geekadelphia Yes! @iphillychitchat video of @doogiehorner's monologue at the #phillygeekawards http://t.co/fupGppY #
  • I hate TV. Waiting area has some crap evening news w/story about gaining weights after wedding. a) Who cares? b) I lost >15lbs, so there. #
  • I swear, when I'm forced to absorb network TV my IQ starts trickling away. Such a change from half a life ago, when I watched 35hrs a wk. #
  • I just heckled Jeopardy audibly from across the room in front of all these people. Good lord, I need to fix my iPod. #
  • Are we supposed to be sympathetic to any of the male characters in S1 Mad Men? Waiting with bated breath for Draper to get mauled by dogs. #
  • @Insomniac_Love Terrible to women. Terrible with clients. Really nothing to say for the character. in reply to Insomniac_Love #
  • @toofeets We made it to episode five but the only character I can stomach is Mrs. Draper. I hate watching TV about miserable people. in reply to toofeets #
  • @alexcmurphy Stopped after ep5. I just can't bring myself to care. God knows I do his job every damned day. in reply to alexcmurphy #
  • @toofeets Exactly. On that topic, how goes the safari planning? in reply to toofeets #
  • @toofeets Eek! Can that be done in four weeks? in reply to toofeets #
  • @eedawson Thank you for making me a hysterical spectacle on my trolley. I'm sure if I shared your message they would understand. in reply to eedawson #
  • Good morning! Loving waking up to Philly's beautiful weather; makes it easy to be enthusiastic about the day. What about you? #
  • @sarahcooley Good morning, Sarah! What's the read on this week, so far? in reply to sarahcooley #
  • @amanda_nan Surely there is some cute Etsy version of the dress for under $200. Can't help you on the shoes, they were amazing. in reply to amanda_nan #
  • @AmyAllStar @gloriabell Was just wondering that. No objections to either, or anything else in that vein. in reply to AmyAllStar #
  • @not_pele "Last Train To the City" == "Lights" by Journey. #
  • Um, did Philly just have an earthquake? Our building is shaking. #
  • @Not_Pele @alexcmurphy Wasn't crazy, but on the 38th floor the shaking went far beyond "someone is unloading something heavy down the hall." in reply to Not_Pele #
  • Aafter 5 minutes of figuring out the approximate range of the quake exclusively from my Twitter feed I checked CNN and there was no news. #
  • @alexcmurphy God, let's all hope not. in reply to alexcmurphy #
  • @jobu215 I was on Twitter walking towards the fire stairs in about five seconds ;) in reply to jobu215 #
  • @brimil @mikeyil I feel like after spending the snopocalypse (drinking) together that we should be w/each other (drunk) in this trying time. in reply to brimil #
  • @baratunde Which side do I count on if I walked to the fire towers stair doorway and THEN started Tweeting? in reply to baratunde #
  • Californians – do kids in public schools get a "quake day" for earthquakes over a certain magnitude? #
  • @jobu215 Especially for things that are universally experienced on a local level, you just can't beat the speed of Twitter. in reply to jobu215 #
  • Having seen one too many disaster movies, we sent our pregnant co-worker home now to increase our odds of survival later. #
  • @billrowland Well, gosh, in Philly kids expect a day off if there is a dusting. I'd say anything 3.0 or over is just as potentially valid :) in reply to billrowland #
  • @phillybosslady I'm not actually with @jedsinger, but I do know him, via @brimil in reply to phillybosslady #
  • @mmmeghan @TeresaBasich Plus I suppose it would be more taxing on infrastructure to release all the kids than to keep them safely in school. in reply to mmmeghan #
  • @Cecilyk And I walked to the doorway of the fire tower before I even checked Twitter. I plan to live until at least the last half hour. in reply to Cecilyk #
  • @alexcmurphy Oh, shit. in reply to alexcmurphy #
  • @shunmahoney There's a reason I scored "visionary" on the "What kind of tribal leader are you" quiz I took last week ;) in reply to shunmahoney #
  • @iWIC3 I'm a little troubled by the fact that they haven't even used our intercom to tell us all is fine. Buildings adjacent have evac'ed in reply to iWIC3 #
  • @PhillyGG Yeah, I think this might be the landmark event that finally causes me to switch to Verizon. in reply to PhillyGG #
  • @AmyAllStar @gloriabell Sorry, kids – we're having a delayed evacuation from work, so I won't be in the city this evening :(… #
  • @brimil Is this a new FAME initiatives – reply to all tweets about your social doings that can be actually confirmed as fact? ;) in reply to brimil #
  • @MelGreiner @marykateruf @shunmahoney Noticed courtyard was roped off when I walked out, but thought it was just a precaution. in reply to MelGreiner #
  • Decided I don't trust El riders to deal with potential aftershocks rationally while underground, so I walked to 46th street station. #
  • @brimil @mattlanger If Amazon went down I don't know if I could keep on living. in reply to brimil #
  • @shunmahoney @MelGreiner @marykateruf We all know if you depressurized an office at that height we would be sucked out into the vacuum. Duh. in reply to shunmahoney #
  • @GinoTheFilipino Ugh, that just sucks. Had you recently lost your wallet, or was this digital identity theft? in reply to GinoTheFilipino #
  • @Cubase How do your academic licenses work? If I buy Cubase6 as a full-time student, can I still produce commercial work without limitation? #
  • Enjoyed this brief assessment of how the East Coast quakes differently than West: Why quake rang like a bell #cnn http://t.co/qBjUbax #
  • 1 of my fav local artists @JoshuaPopejoy issues OMG-awesome new mix of "Til Then I'll Wait" w/electric guitar & harmony: http://t.co/giVmOJd #
  • @amanda_nan Awesome!!! You absolutely must go to their meetings! in reply to amanda_nan #
  • And that will be the last @filmstarband rehearsal I play in khakis. Good lord, are they so not rock pants. PS: Philly shows 9/8 and 10/15! #
  • @colinmlenton Izumi at about 11th and Tasker and Passyunk was by far our fav in the city. Haru on 3rd and Chestnut is a good date spot. in reply to colinmlenton #
  • May have just booked a super-awesome Arcati Crisis birthday gig. It's going to be a rocking fall – three gigs booked so far! #
  • You know how y'all always ask if I have a show coming up? 9/24 @TinAngelPHL, electric full band show & birthday party. Basically, unmissable #
  • @romez My bday is 9/22; we're awaiting word on if we are on the 7:30 or 10:30 lineup. in reply to romez #
  • @romez Looks like 7:30p for us, but we'll likely be out for drinks after if you're in Old City w/MW in reply to romez #
  • @SmashleyDubs Ha, did it die right after our meeting? I always manage to wear through them faster than that. in reply to SmashleyDubs #
  • So far today I have booked a dreamy gig, briefed a dozen new projects, and delivered a presentation. Can all days be like today? #
  • @brimil What kind of vibe? Also, date known yet? Thoughts: Black Sheep. Nodding Head. XIX. Alfa. Estia. in reply to brimil #
  • Oh, and my trainer had me doing these Batman-esque inverted backward situp things, & as we know, I have no objection to all things superhero #
  • @OnTymeMusic Meet my friend @suz925 who co-founded an indie hiphop label. NYC-base, thinking of Philly hiphop venues; thought you could chat #
  • @suz925 I didn't say you were PRESENTLY a label ;) in reply to suz925 #
  • I should probably be writing my blog's 11th anniversary post seeing as that's in, um, six hours. Oh, life. #
  • If that review is even half true I'm going to love the hell out of the new Tori Amos LP. Trying not to get too hyped so I'm not disappointed #
  • @inflammatorywrt We need to talk about Tori, pronto :) #
  • I love when I start writing a song, @not_pele gives me a look I can't read, and then a few minutes later follows up with "that's a good one" #
  • @anniemal @Not_Pele @cecilyk Totally game for hunkering down for part of the day; C & fam almost wound up here when we had the tornado. in reply to anniemal #
  • Good morning! What do you have planned for today? #
  • @eddidit Even if it's valid the general public is already reactionary & lacking in critical thinking skill w/o meteorologists egging them on in reply to eddidit #
  • @inflammatorywrt I've been wishing for this forever – a chance for Tori to place a major limit on herself and then focus on composition. in reply to inflammatorywrt #
  • Despite dissing them in my post later today, I have to hand it to CNN for always letting journalists tell real stories. http://t.co/wquGx0R #
  • @kmartino It's hard to believe we've still never met, especially considering all the SM folks I've met in the past few years! in reply to kmartino #
  • @amanda_nan I just fixed the last sentence; it reads, "a homina homina adventure" :) in reply to amanda_nan #
  • @PhillyGG I'm sorry, evacuation of DARBY?! For real? cc @not_pele in reply to PhillyGG #
  • It's fitting that my blog is celebrating a birthday on the precipice of total apocalypse in the City of Brotherly Love. I love a good crisis #
  • @Not_Pele I did notice that while proofreading :) in reply to Not_Pele #
  • @Not_Pele As soon as I saw @Shmegan's @ModCloth tweet I knew you were going to reply to it :) in reply to Not_Pele #
  • A sensible post from @cecilyk w/crowdsourced recommendations on how to best prepare for possible hurricane. Do laundry! http://t.co/hqJUNJu #
  • @PurpleCar Yes, I was having doubts that we even OWN a radio, let alone a battery-operated one. I suppose we can listen in the car. in reply to PurpleCar #
  • @frankenlincoln Seriously, I see this as a potential "catching up on graphic novels by candlelight" opportunity. in reply to frankenlincoln #
  • @amanda_nan Yikes, did they think that placement through at all? in reply to amanda_nan #
  • @amanda_nan How's the weather? #
  • @RoxieKat How are the streets near you? We were supposed to drive that way to meet a friend and thought it would be early enough. #
  • Despite planning on it for a month, looks like we're going to miss out on seeing friends tonight – they're in the direction of MORE flooding #
  • @cecilyk Safe and sound here, so far. Doesn't even look bad on our block. You? #
  • Now I'm all dolled up and stuck in the house. Perhaps that's a sign I should record some new music videos for you all… #
  • @anniemal Decided you were safer in NoLibs than elsewhere, eh? in reply to anniemal #
  • Just headed outside in my underwear to help @not_pele to batten down the hatches and secure our various patio stuff. #
  • Housebound instead of partying in Manayunk. Boo. (@ Hurricanepocalypse – Irene 2011 w/ @mikeyzito @melissa_shae) http://t.co/xUWrouJ #
  • @thwipster You guys are awesome! Not only a great idea for a site, but I love the design. #
  • @mkaisr Oh no! Home depot & small hardware stores definitely still carry them but boy are they a pain. You can buy a small box & keep extras in reply to mkaisr #
  • Adding to the list for our next house. In addition to an attached recording studio, it will be on high ground & work on generator power. #
  • I might not be liking Mad Men too much but Betty Draper in her house dress with a cigarette and a BB Rifle is going to stick with me forever #
  • And…our area is now also under a tornado warning. Fun! #
  • @melissa_shae So pretty, but they are all just so despicable as human beings. in reply to melissa_shae #
  • @brimil Feeling a little more justified in not heading to Manayunk for a party now. in reply to brimil #
  • @toofeets I gave up, but @not_pele is still hooked. in reply to toofeets #
  • @picture_philly We just also had a five second sustained gust, followed by a light flicker. in reply to picture_philly #
  • @mikeyil We just got up to SPOILER the death of Tasha Yar. in reply to mikeyil #
  • @therealdesh When I first checked Weather.com it was for part of our county; now seems to be gone. in reply to therealdesh #
  • @Cecilyk Still don't feel like rain is quite as torrential as it's been recently but I can definitely hear the wind. Better then feeling it! in reply to Cecilyk #
  • @therealdesh RT @PhillyInquirer: RT @phillydotcom: Tornado warnings lifted for Gloucester County NJ and Delaware County in reply to therealdesh #
  • @Cecilyk Oh no! We've got a steady trickle through our back door, but the rest is still pretty dry. Have the shop vac at the ready in case. in reply to Cecilyk #
  • @MelGreiner That cannot be allowed to happen, as I am not yet 2wks ahead on my blog edcal, & I didn't get a hand-crank charger for my phone. in reply to MelGreiner #
  • @hchybinski You as well! Warning was lifted, but starting to get some flickering. Doing laundry down to the wire :) in reply to hchybinski #
  • I went away to fold the laundry I've done while we still have power, and return to discover the tornado watch is back. Oh, joy. #
  • Love this WSJ story about the real @Irene giving up her account to a hurricane. http://t.co/4dmnad3 #
  • @jayvert I'm on, like, load 5. in reply to jayvert #
  • @DirtyGert @amanda_nan Seriously, my selling point for Philly is that we NEVER have natural disasters, just Snopocalypses. Making me a liar. in reply to DirtyGert #
  • @dzimmerman If you enter your zip at weather.gov on sidebar you will get all the updated warnings for you county. in reply to dzimmerman #
  • @IONRyan What gauges are you doing those recycled picks in? Need to equip our band with a few! in reply to IONRyan #
  • @IONRyan PS: Apocalyptic Love Song, w/drums: http://t.co/8dW7sxq #
  • @NealWiser There are sub pumps with batteries? #still a-pretty-new-homeowner in reply to NealWiser #
  • @Charlie_O Aren't MIL and all her belongings down there now? Should I try to drive down the block to you with our shop vac? in reply to Charlie_O #
  • @LunaTechie I had to draw a line somewhere on the alerts. I was freaking out because my roof has gables. Self, it is too late to change that in reply to LunaTechie #
  • @DirtyGert @bengarvey @amanda_nan @brimil I'm telling you, aliens are next. Mark my words. in reply to DirtyGert #
  • @Wild_billl @AvalonClare I am paranoidly walking past the room w/my comics and HC editions every 20 minutes checking for leaks. in reply to Wild_billl #
  • The crickets are now louder than the rain. Hope that means we've got a slight lull in store until it picks back up in the later AM. #
  • Discovered first official household casualty of the storm: screen ripped out of one of our exterior patio doors. Hoping that'll be the worst #
  • Perhaps I should play a streaming concert before next stage of the apocalypse? Still gussied up from nearly going out earlier. No pants, tho #
  • @IONRyan Some sort of caliper, I suppose. It's just millimeters. in reply to IONRyan #
  • @brimil OMG! Teeny Britt! Matt Nathanson! in reply to brimil #
  • @jillianivey I am brewing a top-secret September project that involves Hall & Oates, among others. Realizing how tricky their melodies are. in reply to jillianivey #
  • @jillianivey Sometimes really obvious-sounding melodies jump around inside of chord voicings, making them not so obvious to sing solo. in reply to jillianivey #
  • @jillianivey Great example: Love Song, by Sarah Bareilles. Good lord, the intervals in the song drive me crazy. in reply to jillianivey #
  • Seeing breaking news about Lady Gaga possibly being injured at VMAs, but only sourced to one tweeter. Any second sources? #
  • @platypusjones @brimil Meant to say "rehearsals." Seems like they would be called off, but she is a crazy workaholic. Only seen 1 source tho in reply to platypusjones #
  • Easier to focus on a famous person than worry about 100s of friends in the #Irene #039;s path. Rain's back. Have a feeling this is an all-nighter #
  • @RoxieKat Do you have any friends within a block or two you could safely get to before the storm really picks back up? in reply to RoxieKat #
  • @eddidit Just woke up and the lights are on, so that's a good sign. in reply to eddidit #
  • Just blinked awake on the couch and the lights are on, so I take it the full on apocalypse either hasn't arrived or slightly missed us? #
  • @therealdesh Which would also be a plus. in reply to therealdesh #
  • @MelGreiner Yes, we get it, you are the most hardcore disaster-loving pregnant lady in Philadelphia, and our earthquake was boring, too ;) in reply to MelGreiner #
  • @MelGreiner Always. It ruined our screen door, that's enough havoc for me. Friends farther out had their whole 1st floor flooded :( in reply to MelGreiner #
  • @PhillyGG It's like people don't appreciate preparation unless they must use everything they prepared. Wonder if bottled water is returnable in reply to PhillyGG #
  • @eddidit That flooded street you posted was wild. A reminder that some people are still having a scary morning. in reply to eddidit #
  • @MelGreiner People had to get on their ROOFS a few blocks from your house? I wouldn't call that underwhelming. in reply to MelGreiner #
  • @PhillyGG Oh, not MY water! I meant the people bitching who probably bought $100 worth. I just froze a few gallons of water in lemonade jugs in reply to PhillyGG #
  • @MelGreiner For sure. On the same note, barely a trickly in the basement, whereas it was wet when we inspected the house after 2days of rain in reply to MelGreiner #
  • @MelGreiner Or all of our re-graded shenanigans actually paid off :) in reply to MelGreiner #
  • I'm impressed that I haven't seen a single fail whale this entire time, even though my browser can barely load new tweets fast enough #
  • Both @not_pele & I suspect that anyone doing extreme sports on the streets of 'Yunk probably emerged from the party we skipped last night. #
  • @RFagg Thank YOU for keeping us up to date on the area! You're the best source of UD/DH news I saw on Twitter all night. cc @not_pele in reply to RFagg #
  • @attila LOVE: "Not a citation for doing a GOOD job. A citation for disorderly conduct!" in reply to attila #
  • My wife would like to know where all the birds go during hurricanes. "Because, you know, squirrels and rabbits and stuff have little holes." #
  • Total household casualties: half of a screen door. Oh, and I ate an entire load of bread. #bloatpocalypse #
  • @saranmatthews Either that or go into a state of hibernation while we waited for rescue crews. in reply to saranmatthews #
  • @TraceyJWhitney Stay safe! We are now contemplating which of our emergency rations make the best post-hurricane snack ;) in reply to TraceyJWhitney #
