Long time listener, first time poster...
Interrupting our weekly tennis match, I asked the messiah what unified the faithful. He smiled gnomically and replied, "one, love."

Yea, okay, you get points for fitting that load of set-up into 100 characters, but you also get the DC razz for the punchline: BOO! HISS!

Thanks, ejbman. 
OK, strawman - try this:
"The universe is just information" his thesis had said - but had his calculations just proved that déjà vu was a compression artifact?
Speaking of de-compressing things, I've always wanted to expand that out to a short story. Well, one day...

I assume this has been asked before, but why call 'em twit-fic if the limit isn't 140 characters?

They're also called 'Twabbles'.Apocraphilia wrote:Yep - that's how I knew I was over.ejbman wrote:Have you seen the sizing tool?Apocraphilia wrote:(Still wrestling with the length constraint, as you can see...)

I know 'Trojan' as a brand is supposed to make me think 'armoured' and 'protected' - but am I the only one who thinks 'getting inside sneakily', or worse, '...inside a horse'?
