=3 and SuchTweetSorrow

What's this? Two updates in one day? Can it be possibly true?! Okay, so this is me personally apologizing for blowing you guys off for most of the week by giving you two posts. (Also, this one's not just an excuse for not putting up posts.) Please forgive us. There. Now for the actual blog.

I recently joined Twitter. Mostly because it's the easiest way to stalk celebrities.

Alright, so I joined it partly because Ray William Johnson of Equals Three fame uses it to update his fans with what's going on and if there's a new video out, and partly because I like writing short yet catchy updates. That is, if I can find anything funny to write.

Ray William Johnson's a funny guy, and his show basically revolves around showing 2-4 extremely popular (or "viral") videos and analyzing (is that correctly spelled?) them using standard internet humor, with frequent "your mom" jokes, and sexist remarks. (But I'm pretty sure that's a joke though... right?) He's got some really funny running gags, and a hilarious character, The Troll, that anyone that has ever seen any comments on the internet ever should be able to recognize.

But to be fair, I think it's really just something you ought to see for yourselves. Here's Ray's latest =3 video, by the way, that came out last thursday. (There's a new one to be released today, but I can't be bothered to actually wait for it.) If you like it, chances are you'll like all his other videos. They're pretty much the same.



But back to the subject of Twitter! After having joined, only this week, I found out about Such Tweet Sorrow. I'm going to assume you're familiar with the play Romeo & Juliet by William Shakespeare, right? Well Such Tweet Sorrow is a modern production of Romeo & Juliet... On Twitter! That's right! This is no joke! There are six characters, and we follow their lives day by day for five weeks. It's in real-time, and I've been following them since day six or seven. It started April 10th.

If you're not already following the story, I suggest you start now. It's not too late: Romeo and Juliet haven't even met yet! Read up on the story so far here and click all the characters (listed in the sidebar of the website) to follow them.

Stay classy,

P.S. Coming up sometime this week (i.e. whenever I can actually be buggered): Runic Magic: A how-to guide. I've only got a few minor details to figure out, and then it's ready to be posted. So, like... look forward to that.
