Tweets of Win, Edition 1

I maybe possibly overuse that little favorite star on Twitter, mostly because EVERYONE SAYS SUCH LOVELY AND HILARIOUS THINGS. Here are some of the best of the last couple weeks or so.

I am literally watching paint dry. As an experience, it is as advertised. -- @mssusieday (Susie Day)

two roads diverged in a wood, and i -- i took the one less traveled by, and that is exactly why i keep my iPhone on me at all times. #GPSFTW -- @taherehmafi (Tahereh Mafi)

Dear hot chocolate, thanks again! Please give my best to whipped cream. -- @birbigs (Mike Birbiglia)

Goodnight Everything. If you secretly stop existing while I sleep & only start again when I wake up, do not tell me. I'll only worry. -- @neilhimself (Neil Gaiman)

a memory of stupidity, or something

So, true story, in tenth grade I got a C on a math test. But wait wait, there's more! That's not even the good part yet!

I got a C on this math test and I was super-bummed because I literally did not understand anything we were doing and my teacher was super-unhelpful, and the guy sitting next to me looked over at my grade and said, "Wow, you're, like, one of those people who looks really smart but is actually dumb."

BLOG, WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THAT?

If you thought: "there is no answer" than you are correct. I sat there sort of duh-wee because seriously wth?

But he was right. I do look smart. I have that not-too-ugly-not-too-pretty, brunette, quiet, studious look about me. Like I'm thinking really big thoughts when most of the time I'm really thinking about something ridiculous, like robots falling in love or what would happen if I rammed the grocery cart into the back wall of the grocery store, where all the wine is, and how much wine would break and spill all over the place and could it possibly flood the aisle a little bit?

Those are actually things I think about. Often. 


What strange things do you think about, blog? And also: do you look smarter than you are? Or are you smarter than you look?
