Joe Schmitt has something to say

Overheard during the Twitter maintenance

• Me: Oh, hi, Facebook.
• FB: Oh, now you're back? Now that your precious, precious Twitter is down. What happened? Did your OTHER FAMILY reject you?
• Me: Don't be that way. I come see you every day. Sometimes several times.
• FB: Making a few Scrabble moves from iPhone Scrabble doesn't count. A login is not enough.
• Me: But sometimes I post stuff too.
• FB: Mmmhmm. A few statuses that are just rehashed tweets? Some links to tweets and Tumblr?
• Me: But I'm here now. Doesn't that count for something?
• FB: But you'll be gone in an hour.
• Me [checks watch]: 43 minutes actually.
