    <content type="html">&lt;ul class="loudtwitter"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:20&lt;/em&gt; Am I just imagining things, or was there really a plot point that involved Hermione trying to take back the term "mudblood"? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6972240105"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:21&lt;/em&gt; And if it did happen, it probably didn't happen the way I'm now imagining it. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6972257935"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:24&lt;/em&gt; Was someone else talking about this?  Is this a joke that somebody made that I now think is real? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6972334744"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:24&lt;/em&gt; I really don't want to re-read any of the last three books to find out. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6972346771"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:25&lt;/em&gt; Holy crap!  @nedroid is going to be at this year's Heroes Con. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6980265474"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:27&lt;/em&gt; &lt;a href="http://nedroidcomics.livejournal.com/262246.html"&gt;nedroidcomics.livejournal.com/262246.html&lt;/a&gt; for those of you wondering. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6980308004"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:27&lt;/em&gt; The delivery of the unpunctuated GORILLA seriously gets me every time. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6980325112"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:39&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/nedroid"&gt;nedroid&lt;/a&gt; Glad to see you're making it in the world.  And by making it, I mean going to convention near where I used to live. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6980643449"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:39&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/nedroid"&gt;nedroid&lt;/a&gt; I've been rooting for you since the days of the Jay Pinkerton message board. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6980653779"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;ul class="loudtwitter"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;00:10&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/kingoblivionphd"&gt;KingOblivionPhD&lt;/a&gt; @theisb I guess if he and a few others made a kind of human pyramid. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6919332964"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;00:24&lt;/em&gt; Is there anything funnier than using the word "ain't" in place of "don't". &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6919687607"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;00:25&lt;/em&gt; Such as in the case of, "Baby, you know I ain't know how to use a phone." &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6919699900"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:16&lt;/em&gt; I'm going back through @nedroid's archives and I'm reminded why everyone should follow @nedroid. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6920909293"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:16&lt;/em&gt; You should also go to his website www.nedroid.com or nedroidcomics.livejournal.com &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6920918635"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:17&lt;/em&gt; He's also the colorist for Dr. McNinja, if that means anything to any of you. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6920925189"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:29&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/theisb"&gt;theisb&lt;/a&gt; @talestoenrage To be fair, this time I honestly didn't think anyone could actually defend Dunham. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6921183295"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:31&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/theisb"&gt;theisb&lt;/a&gt; Also also, so far no one's defended Dunham, there's just a guy who ain't know the difference between racist and racial humor. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6921227543"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:44&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/talestoenrage"&gt;talestoenrage&lt;/a&gt; How goes the slow, steady march towards madness? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6921507388"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:51&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/talestoenrage"&gt;talestoenrage&lt;/a&gt; Well, if it makes you feel any better, I found out there's a shounen sports anime about American Football. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6921646976"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:53&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/talestoenrage"&gt;talestoenrage&lt;/a&gt; No, that's the one.  I'm still really confused about Japanese people playing American Football. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6921704006"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:56&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/talestoenrage"&gt;talestoenrage&lt;/a&gt; Here's hoping there'll be one about curling.  And it'll be about a kid who's a real natural with those dumb little brooms. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6921745881"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:02&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/talestoenrage"&gt;talestoenrage&lt;/a&gt; And in the final showdown against Team Canada, he has to develop Phoenix Brush Stroke Zero. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6921879264"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:04&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/talestoenrage"&gt;talestoenrage&lt;/a&gt; I feel that we could go more places with this if either of us knew a damn thing about curling. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6921916109"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:10&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/talestoenrage"&gt;talestoenrage&lt;/a&gt; My favorite part of curling is the Pegasus dueling. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922042157"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:15&lt;/em&gt; Sad but true:  The losing Pegasus is shot and made into burgers.  #liesaboutcurling &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922132436"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:18&lt;/em&gt; In curling, the bristles of the brooms are actually made of metal.  Dio metal.  #liesaboutcurling &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922190883"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:19&lt;/em&gt; The expression "23 Skidoo" comes from curling.  It refers to Canadian ace Lars Twenty-Three, who would frequently skidoo.  #liesaboutcurling &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922219975"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:22&lt;/em&gt; The French actually have no word for "curling".  But they have at least three ways of saying "goodbye".  #liesaboutcurling &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922267210"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:24&lt;/em&gt; The proper pronunciation is "curling, eh?"  'Eh?' is something that Canadians say.  #liesaboutcurling #truthaboutCanadians &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922308465"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:25&lt;/em&gt; Oddly enough, women's curling teams tend to be disproportionately attractive.  #forseriousthisisactuallytrueaboutcurling &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922325537"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:28&lt;/em&gt; To become an Olympic sport, curling had to defeat biathalon in ritual combat.  #liesaboutcurling &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922380030"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:29&lt;/em&gt; While not technically illegal, heaving the rock at your oppoents heads is considered very unsporting.  #liesaboutcurling &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922397634"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:34&lt;/em&gt; Please refer to the broom-wielders by the preferred term, "spastics".  #liesaboutcurling #seriouslythattermisoutdated &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922494522"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:35&lt;/em&gt; Curling practices were one of the chief inspirations for Thanksgiving.  #liesaboutcurling &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922527753"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:38&lt;/em&gt; The traditional curling introduction involves at least 2 hours of martial arts posedowns.  #liesaboutcurling &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922582510"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:39&lt;/em&gt; Well, it is late and I've attracted at least 3 new curling-centric spammers.  I'd say my work here is done. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922597504"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:40&lt;/em&gt; And, in a heartening moment, my 1000th tweet wasn't random complaining, it was a lie about curling. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6922606626"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:04&lt;/em&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2009/12/star-trek-keeps-women-computer-science/"&gt;www.wired.com/wiredscience/2009/12/star-trek-keeps-women-computer-science/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6944887663"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:05&lt;/em&gt; The thrust is this:  Wired does studies about nerd culture and its effects on gender with regards to computer science programs. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6944907004"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:05&lt;/em&gt; The comments, unsurprisingly, are a bunch of whiny nerds complaining about women ruining stuff. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6944921369"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:08&lt;/em&gt; Listen, I am a nerd.  I have been for many years.  I come from a family of nerds. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6944997126"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:09&lt;/em&gt; It's why I hate the idea that many nerds hold of some kind of nerd superiority (due to intelligence) or nerd persecution. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6945017213"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:13&lt;/em&gt; Oh man, one of these commenters has just won the Internet for ever and always. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6945132973"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:15&lt;/em&gt; Ladies and gentlemen, I present Reow, Wired Reader and all around awesome dude. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6945187373"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:16&lt;/em&gt; "If women don’t have what it takes to be computer scientists, they should stick to psychology, embroidery, or other ‘meaningful’ vocations." &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6945208310"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;21:20&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/theisb"&gt;theisb&lt;/a&gt; Haters:  A Retrospective &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6950220372"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;21:22&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/theisb"&gt;theisb&lt;/a&gt; Or yell at Smithy until he draws you a picture of Batman, Rom, OMAC, Devil Dinosaur, Dr. Doom and the Punisher riding/hitting bears. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6950251909"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;21:22&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/theisb"&gt;theisb&lt;/a&gt; Yeah, having read some of those comments, looks like I'll have to help myself to some crow. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6950276427"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;ul class="loudtwitter"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;03:07&lt;/em&gt; Today's holiday movie:  The Fearless Vampire Killers. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6887594134"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;12:38&lt;/em&gt; I bet John McClane's Christmas memories just involve him murdering a metric tonne of dudes. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6899862983"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;12:41&lt;/em&gt; I bet twinkling lights just make him flash back to getting shot and and running on glass. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6899937017"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:50&lt;/em&gt; Oh, I have a few words about last night's holiday movie, Roman Polanski's The Fearless Vampire Killers. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6901825819"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:50&lt;/em&gt; If a movie is called The Fearless Vampire Killers, you would expect, at some point, that a vampire would be killed.  You would be wrong. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6901849463"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:51&lt;/em&gt; Now I know how @theisb feels re: Anita Blake. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6901857440"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:54&lt;/em&gt; It did have a castle and snow, so it did feel at least somewhat Christmas-y. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6901943892"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:57&lt;/em&gt; But most of that cheer was tainted by the fact that I kept seeing the actors and thinking "murdered by the Manson family" and "raped a kid." &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6902017796"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:57&lt;/em&gt; That would be Sharon Tate and Roman Polanski himself, respectively. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6902030520"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:18&lt;/em&gt; So, my next holiday offering is the Korean Vampire movie "Thirst." &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6908873429"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:19&lt;/em&gt; It's weird, but good.  It's really more of a meditation on sin and guilt than anything else. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6908893216"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:20&lt;/em&gt; I'd give it an 8 or a 9 out of 10. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6908924324"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:21&lt;/em&gt; Coincidentally, that's also the number of times in the movie I nearly threw the hell up. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6908937701"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:21&lt;/em&gt; Seriously, Park Chan-wook, was it really necessary to have a close-up of a fish-hook going through someone's ear?  Then ripping? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6908957369"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:23&lt;/em&gt; It also qualifies for the 2009 "Least Erotic Sex Scene Ever" &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6909007792"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:24&lt;/em&gt; I mean, unless you're really into vampire-on-woman-with-the-ghost-of-her-drowned-husband-in-between-them.  Then it's probably super-hot. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6909031668"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;18:26&lt;/em&gt; In conclusion, Park Chan-wook makes very good movies, but I'd probably have to punch him in the balls if I ever met him.  On principle. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6909108236"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;21:18&lt;/em&gt; I'm honestly getting annoyed about video game makers touting their "tough, moral choices." &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6914276615"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;21:19&lt;/em&gt; We get it, guys.  You have 2 choices.  You can be a good guy or a bad guy.  There are generally a few superficial differences. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6914298926"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;21:22&lt;/em&gt; Especially when the difference between good and evil is, "Did you pointlessly murder, like, 500 dudes?  Y/N?" &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6914400924"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;21:23&lt;/em&gt; I'm coming up on my 1000th tweet, and I just know that it's going to be me complaining about something pointless. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6914422277"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;23:47&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/theisb"&gt;theisb&lt;/a&gt; At least with the Jeff Dunham article we've hopefully found one reprehensible thing that your commenters won't defend. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6918734886"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;23:53&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/theisb"&gt;theisb&lt;/a&gt; Who knows?  Maybe they'll surprise yoooooooo....fuck I can't even finish saying that. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6918884484"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;ul class="loudtwitter"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;03:16&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/drpuppykicker"&gt;DrPuppykicker&lt;/a&gt; It's because you mentioned Bowie. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6824199910"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;03:21&lt;/em&gt; So, I'd never seen any of Fox Reality before, but their logo is actually the Mouth of Madness. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6824285210"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;03:22&lt;/em&gt; It makes a certain amount of sense.  I mean, when you gaze into Fox Reality, know that it gazes also into you. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6824291402"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;12:31&lt;/em&gt; I have to say, Avatar still confounds me. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6834356514"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;12:32&lt;/em&gt; I mean, I can already tell you the entire damn plot of the movie.  And not in the sense of "the good guys win".  I mean the entire plot. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6834381325"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;12:33&lt;/em&gt; To be fair, maybe James Cameron will throw everyone for a loop as the movie ends with a series of climactic battle raps. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6834409665"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;12:35&lt;/em&gt; Or maybe it turns out that humans teach the soothing power of heavy metal to the blue cat people who are someone's exact fetish. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6834458875"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;12:36&lt;/em&gt; Also, I have to say that from the previews, I ain't all that impressed by the visuals, especially if that's all it has. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6834488247"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;12:37&lt;/em&gt; What I've seen thus far makes it look like the human actors are also CG.  'Cause I really wanted some Sigourney Weaver Uncanny Valley. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6834518248"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;12:38&lt;/em&gt; I'm also reminded that I do have family members on twitter who read this sometimes.  How proud they must be of me. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6834530909"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;12:38&lt;/em&gt; Yessir, that Master's has totally qualified me to complain about things on the internet. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6834539785"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:35&lt;/em&gt; I realize I'm not unique in this, but I'm snowed in.  I have declared this day to be a movie day.  What should I watch? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6835993791"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:36&lt;/em&gt; I have the old Hammer, The Curse of Frankenstein. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6836006313"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:36&lt;/em&gt; I also have a lot of martial arts movies. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6836011419"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:39&lt;/em&gt; I've already done a viewing of eXistenZ and Taste the Blood of Dracula this month. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6836084956"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;19:59&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/drpuppykicker"&gt;DrPuppykicker&lt;/a&gt; Still need something to mock? &lt;a href="http://www.apple.com/trailers/mgm/hottubtimemachine/hottub_large.html"&gt;www.apple.com/trailers/mgm/hottubtimemachine/hottub_large.html&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6845171495"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;ul class="loudtwitter"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;00:44&lt;/em&gt; Did we ever establish how Jimmy Fallon got The Roots as his house band? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6788754940"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;00:44&lt;/em&gt; Did Spider-Man put in a good word for him with Mephisto? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6788759186"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;00:47&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/theisb"&gt;theisb&lt;/a&gt; Did you at least get a kindly aunt saved out of that breakup? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6788816232"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;00:55&lt;/em&gt; But seriously, what kind of dirt does Fallon have on ?uestlove? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6788982334"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;00:55&lt;/em&gt; I have learned that it looks weird to have ?uestlove's name be the last sentence in a question. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6788991547"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:10&lt;/em&gt; Okay, so @KingOblivionPhD is sick of this, but I'm posting about it anyway. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6789254730"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:11&lt;/em&gt; Back when he was in college, there was a guy who lived on his hall who was really pathetic. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6789269461"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:11&lt;/em&gt; Naturally, my roommate and I (at a different college) spent our time following this guy's website. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6789275032"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:12&lt;/em&gt; I'm not proud of this.  But I still take glee from him. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6789280528"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:12&lt;/em&gt; We despaired briefly when his website went down, but then we remembered archive.org. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6789289990"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:13&lt;/em&gt; So, in summation, if you're ever feeling bad about yourself, just read this, and feel better.  &lt;a href="http://tinyurl.com/ydrz38c"&gt;tinyurl.com/ydrz38c&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6789309082"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:14&lt;/em&gt; But here's a taste:  "I thought that I could get this girl because she wasn't really that attractive and she would be an easy catch." &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6789329525"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:31&lt;/em&gt; I would once again like to point out that @KingOblivionPhD does not condone this behavior at all. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6789626928"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:33&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/drpuppykicker"&gt;DrPuppykicker&lt;/a&gt; It isn't a video, and it's a couple months old.  But you could take this on:  &lt;a href="http://tinyurl.com/yk342l5"&gt;tinyurl.com/yk342l5&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6789658922"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;03:40&lt;/em&gt; I have to say, my main problem with Avatar is knowing that I am looking at someone's exact fetish. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6790813389"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:31&lt;/em&gt; New new favorite Onion line:  New study links heart disease to eating like a big fat disgusting pig that no one could love. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6805895313"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;15:09&lt;/em&gt; The true reason that I'm not going to see avatar:  Out of all of the cliches that exist, the Noble Savage is the one I hate the most. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6806880657"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;19:33&lt;/em&gt; I hope everyone likes shutter shades, because that's the only gift I'm giving. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6813748536"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;ul class="loudtwitter"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:40&lt;/em&gt; This will only be of interest if you like both Iron Man and Mad Men:  John Slattery will apparently be playing Tony Stark's dad. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6757965668"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:51&lt;/em&gt; So, through long and embarrassing series of links, I ended up reading summaries of various shitty movies. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6758133983"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:52&lt;/em&gt; When reading about The Core, I stumbled upon the greatest narrative prowess that language can offer.  I hope you're all sitting down. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6758149071"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:52&lt;/em&gt; "One of the debris hit Iverson in the head.

Or rather, I like George Romero movies and 28 Days Later. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6758740966"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;03:33&lt;/em&gt; I also fully realize that this is an extreme case of zombie hipsterism and nerd rage. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6758753514"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;03:34&lt;/em&gt; Like people talking about zombies wanting to eat brains.  Brains weren't until Return of the Living Dead. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6758771323"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;03:34&lt;/em&gt; Okay, if this doesn't lose me any followers, I don't know what will. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6758775215"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:55&lt;/em&gt; I gotta say, the thing I miss most about North Carolina is the sever lack of raising up, taking my shirt off, and twisting it round my head. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6771073738"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:55&lt;/em&gt; That was my bimonthly Petey Pablo reference.  Keeping the streak alive. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6771084707"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:22&lt;/em&gt; Why Marvel should hire me:  I have a whole story about Ol' Dirty Bastard not really being dead, because it was actually his LMD that died. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6771711013"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:23&lt;/em&gt; But then:  It turns out that maybe ODB was the LMD the whole time.  And yes, that sound you hear is your mind exploding. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6771729897"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:27&lt;/em&gt; If that doesn't work, I also have a pitch about Jimmy Stewart as a vampire. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6771846645"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;20:09&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/drpuppykicker"&gt;DrPuppykicker&lt;/a&gt; Would you be willing to go after any of the myriad videos surrounding Avatar? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6780931148"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;ul class="loudtwitter"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:32&lt;/em&gt; Question:  Is there a better make-out song than Gordon LIghtfoot's "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald"? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6560251666"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;02:56&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/drpuppykicker"&gt;DrPuppykicker&lt;/a&gt;  Looks like Hans had to die....hard.  #groan &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6560626214"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:34&lt;/em&gt; How come nobody's done a Harry Potter/The Wire crossover? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6574753421"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:39&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/drpuppykicker"&gt;DrPuppykicker&lt;/a&gt; Omar would use the HELL out of the Marauders' Map. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6574892450"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:42&lt;/em&gt; So here's the basic question.  Does Diagon Alley just become a de facto legalized drug zone? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6574986085"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:45&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/drpuppykicker"&gt;DrPuppykicker&lt;/a&gt; It's part of the annual exchange between the Baltimore Police and Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6575059671"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:46&lt;/em&gt; Also, if we follow this logic, then each new Harry Potter book would deal with a different aspect of witch life. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6575091380"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:48&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/drpuppykicker"&gt;DrPuppykicker&lt;/a&gt; There'd be a lot about the reporters at the Daily Prophet later on. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6575149747"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:55&lt;/em&gt; Diagon Alley meets Murderland Alley. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6575324177"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;13:57&lt;/em&gt; Plus, I'm pretty sure McNulty would have handled the tracking of the horcruxes a little differently than Harry and Hermione did. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6575386447"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:02&lt;/em&gt; What this basically comes down to, is I enjoy mashing Harry Potter up with anything. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6575509662"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:02&lt;/em&gt; See also: #wutangwizards &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6575523230"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:18&lt;/em&gt; Jeez, tvtropes.  I recognize what you're doing, but do you have to explain every single detail about every work of fiction ever? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6575945550"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:25&lt;/em&gt; Is it bad that when I get a few new followers (emphasis on FEW), my immediate thoughts jump to how to alienate them? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6576141741"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:26&lt;/em&gt; Thus I'll talk about my favorite historian, Robert Darnton.  See the awesome thing about Darnton is that he's also trained as a journalist. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6576157646"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:26&lt;/em&gt; So his writing is clear and concise, but without compromising any of the points he's trying to make. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6576168961"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:28&lt;/em&gt; He wrote a piece that I'd recommend to anyone, talking about the role of libraries in the internet age. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6576211271"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:31&lt;/em&gt; Darnton's success, though, partially comes from adapting to new technology and embracing it. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6576296580"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:31&lt;/em&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.nybooks.com/articles/21514"&gt;www.nybooks.com/articles/21514&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6576302561"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:33&lt;/em&gt; One of his points early on is a defense of blogs as somehow an unstable information source. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6576342289"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:34&lt;/em&gt; He points out that really, information has never been stable, we only think it has been. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6576358500"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:34&lt;/em&gt; ....okay, I've lost no followers.  I give up on talking history for now. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6576373070"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:35&lt;/em&gt; Be warned, I just might go off on a tangent about the influence of the Annales school and Braudel. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6576405315"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:50&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/drpuppykicker"&gt;DrPuppykicker&lt;/a&gt; Tell you what, next time we'll do Harry Potter/Sondheim Musicals. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6576779047"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;15:06&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/nickpopio"&gt;nickpopio&lt;/a&gt; Shame on a Death Eata' &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6577193092"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;15:06&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/nickpopio"&gt;nickpopio&lt;/a&gt; Da Mystery of Wizardchessboxin' &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6577201487"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;16:25&lt;/em&gt; Out of curiosity, who was it who told Mike Meyers that he was good at accents? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6579245721"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;ul class="loudtwitter"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;00:36&lt;/em&gt; So, the first part of the Masters of Horror title screen is really pretty awesome. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6455702379"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;00:37&lt;/em&gt; Then it devolves into the a contest of how many horror cliches they can cram into 30 seconds. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6455711673"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;00:38&lt;/em&gt; (And yes, I'm continuing to spend the Christmas season watching horror). &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6455739650"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:46&lt;/em&gt; So, final review of Cigarette Burns.  It was pretty damned good. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6457047684"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:47&lt;/em&gt; There was a bit too much gratuitous gore at the end, but still pretty engaging.  Not really scary, though. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6457057352"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:47&lt;/em&gt; Mostly, the movie makes me angry.  Seriously, how can John Carpenter do good things like this, but still made the movie Vampires. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6457070911"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:48&lt;/em&gt; Vampires, by the way, is still seriously one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6457080682"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;01:56&lt;/em&gt; This also makes the Masters of Horror Anthology 1-1.  Cigarette Burns was good.  The Damned Thing was not. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6457203038"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;16:02&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/bella_caccini"&gt;Bella_Caccini&lt;/a&gt; Oh, I'd totally be Matt.  Then I could just punch myself in my stupid face all day long. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6474817303"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;16:19&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/bella_caccini"&gt;Bella_Caccini&lt;/a&gt; If fictional characters, then definitely Aunt May.  Or Aunt Bea.  Definitely a single-syllable aunt of some sort. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6475268966"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;ul class="loudtwitter"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;04:19&lt;/em&gt; So, George Lopez got a show, in spite of being so unfunny that I would rather chew my own arm off than listen to him.

Just writing "Uatu Sucks!" on a piece of paper and holding it up.  And he can't do a damn thing but watch. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6376476752"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;14:18&lt;/em&gt; I've got the Christmas lights on, it's snowing outside, and I'm about to watch "Taste the Blood of Dracula."  The holidays are here. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6377032054"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;17:09&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/kingoblivionphd"&gt;KingOblivionPhD&lt;/a&gt; Wait, that show's still on? &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6381237021"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;17:09&lt;/em&gt; @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/kingoblivionphd"&gt;KingOblivionPhD&lt;/a&gt; Surely Zach Braff's lucrative film career would have put an end to it by now. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/franzferdinand2/statuses/6381254998"&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content>
