The Indignity of the Internet: Twitterjacked!

just days after i discovered that a certain online retailer is using this blog to market yet another inexpensive singlespeed technique bike, i’ve now cultured that big gun has taken the freedom of creating a twitter account in my renown:

i’d peer to apply oneself to this opportunity to put, “hey there! i am not using snigger.” if you’re reading this blog you know i’m wordy, and there’s indubitably no direction i could restrict myself to 140 characters per post. and unpretentiously, since it’s not my twitter account, i can’t access it. so, sadly, i must look to to graphical funny in order to disseminate a message to the perpetrator(s):

fortunately, though, things aren’t all bad. anything else of all, as of right now my fake simper has no updates. so, if snicker is put straight of a modern-daytime manifestation of what buddhists call the “monkey mind,” then my own humour rests in zen-like tranquility. second of all, of the two people following my hoax twitter, one of them is none other than that guy from all the bike riding, lance armstrong*:

*Oops, I guess my fake Twitter is following him and not the other way around.

this is a tremendous honor. as you probably know by now, lance armstrong is a prodigious twitterer. in accomplishment, he’s sort of the lance armstrong of twitterers. i’m reasonably in the cards that when he reaches the top of mont ventoux in this year’s jaunt he will be clutching a blackberry, and that he’ll fill someone in on an update that says, “listening to sufjan stevens, thinking about bread.” he even conducted an online ask via warble so that readers could vote on wheter his custom livestrong madone would sport sinister or yellow put on hoods. (in a rare nod to subtlety, black won.) frankly, i contrive he should let people against on every aspect of his equipment choice. quite, who out there wouldn’t kidney to meet with him ride a giro d’italia time trial stage on a nashbar singlespeed 29er? still, you’ve got to give him depend on for staying in come near with his fans. does jonathan vaughters let you vote on whether or not he shaves his sideburns? i didn’t think so.speaking of armstrong’s livestrong madone, i’m sure he finds it moderately irksome that it falls so pissed short of the world’s greatest madone. this becomes abundandly clear when you juxtapose the two:

i mean, armstrong’s bike has a group of numbers painted on it and bosh, but it doesn’t come anywhere thick to reaching the madone chassis’s full potential. how’s he supposed to carry small parcels, or see what’s behind him? also, armstrong himself might take a few cues from the owner of the world’s greatest madone when it comes to looking “pro:”

clearly, all that repeatedly off the bike has taken its toll. maybe if
