Now that's what I call banality

I have never run faster than I am now, to the defence of Twitter. If you want the ultimate arbiter for your thoughts, jokes and witty retorts, Twitter is what you need. If you want to feel falsely close to celebrities (like David Baddiel) then Twitter is what you need. If you want to develop your left bicep exponentially when a New York model sends you a message, Twitter is what you need (true story).

I know Twitter can be used to effect massive and important change, such as 3rd world uprising, inclusivity of isolated people and proper social reform but, for me, when someone tweets, say, a request for names of bad cover bands, well. That makes me happy.  A few hundred responses later and I was spent. "High"lights include:

- Emerson, Fake and Palmer
- Electric Shite Orchestra (my fave)
- Not so Keane

Tonight's shout was Fake Channel 5 documentaries. Too many thoughts. I channeled my inner Partridge:

- When Cotton Wool Attacks!
- War. Huh. What is it really good for?
- World's most incontinent Mormon

Twitter is just a forum for one liners. One liners and instant judgement.

Bring it on!
