In context it almost went kind of bad, there.
The new moral of this story is: leave your doors unlocked at night and it will most likely result in free booze.

Tweet of the Day, They’re Archiving 78 Records On The Internet Now edition.
Which is pretty much what the Internet should be for. This and cat videos — what? I have a cat. Cats are funny to watch. Especially the ones on the Internet. And God knows that the Internet can be used for worse things…
Spread the word: The Internet Archive has put up *25,000* 78rpm records, digitized professionally. https://t.co/BwlWuj1NHg pic.twitter.com/30Wxc45S8o

Three words: arm-mounted flame bracers*.

Or maybe four words. Hyphenated words are always tricky to count. Either way, this is now officially current tech.

Tweet of the Day, Just Read The Dang Thread edition.
It’s… I don’t know how you’d get paid for this, but it’s pretty dang good as a collaboration.
@ChuckWendig yo, can you help me out

PS: Don’t read the responses that aren’t Sykes or Wendig. Many of them are tiresome and kind of whiny.
Tweet of the Day, This Is Just About Perfect edition.
I’m not saying that you can’t still be in a bad mood after seeing this, but you’re gonna have to work to keep that scowl on your face. I mean, geez, there’s even dramatic tension in there. Well played, senor. Well played.

Tweet of the Day, Or Else One Guy Doing A 1-3-2-4 Pee Sequence edition.
On a timer, because why not? But, yeah. This looks conceptually familiar.

Tweet of the Day, You’re Not Going To Believe That These Sculptures Are Real edition.
But apparently they are. If these are fakes, then they’re fakes that have managed to survive over a century’s scrutiny, which is impressive all by itself. But, seriously, this is real:

Tweet of the Day, “Launch Photon Torpedoes” Is Rarely The WRONG Answer edition.
At least, that’s been my experience in gaming. If they give you a full torpedo load, they’re expecting you to shoot them in the very near future. And if you do shoot them off too early, they typically give you a reload. So, yeah, “Launch Photon Torpedoes.”

Tweet of the Day, The Last One Is Truly A Miracle edition.
(Via Cynthia Ann Yockey) Yes, I’m joking, but only slightly. That kind of conversion used to be a massive pain in the sit-upon. Now, it’s just more or less assumed to be a basic print option. Computers have just simply gotten so much better in the last twenty years.
