Ammo count

Posted on October 16, 2007 by Mike

Some of my friends on Twitter prefer to talk only to people they know or who have proved themselves interesting. Me? I don’t give a fuck who you are. And if someone adds me on Twitter I add ‘em right back. They then have maybe a week’s grace to prove themselves not a fuckwit. Far from a perfect system, it hasn’t stopped me being bored to tears, hit on and occasionally disturbed over the last year*, but it works for me.

So today (if you follow me) you would have seen this:

Following only half a conversation can get a tad frustrating, eh? What George and I were talking about was this:

G&P M41A ALIEN KIT

I’m as much of an Aliens fan as the next guy, but seriously… if you need a working LED ammo counter that counts your ammo usage while blasting in the general direction of imaginary monsters then fair play to you.

*much to my surprise I’ve been using Twitter since November 2006 and have around 170 pages of tweets trailing behind me.

To quote Harry Pearson, “you can never have too much of something you didn’t need in the first place.”

No one I know is on Twitter, I joined and just randomly started adding people who wrote cool little sentences. And then I followed links to their websites (like I did with yours) and then I get new additions for my RSS feed plus anything I find via that (BookPirate is on my “to read” list now) and then VOILA! a whole new social net of information to break down every day. I love it. The only way to meet new people is to walk into an empty room.

Also, mmm guns.
