Longtime listener, firsttime caller "A.H." replied today on this little mini-post about today's WCB hostage crisis:
Been following you on twitter all day as you spout your nonsense. You are a scary, anti-social person. As you are a conservative extremist, I suggest you go back to the forest and live as a hunter-gatherer, because that is where society would be today if conservatives actually had influence.
Ahh, so much silliness in a single post [I thought societies, not people, were "hunter-gatherer" but I guess I'm just crazy! -ed]. To paraphrase Ann Coulter, I'm not an extremist in the slightest. I am a moderate centrist. People like A.H. are the extremists.
Now what kind of nonsense have I been posting on Twitter today? Let's check and see:
- .@Proletarianist Better attendance and better energy inside the Shaw. Less hate and rage-filled faces, more smiles & ethnic diversity. #yeg
- @lshelby @IanDavidB And yet inside, a bunch of people not consumed by the dark side of the force had a pleasant and enjoyable evening
- @theQAN He got a great welcome inside
- Whew! Look at all that scary anti-social stuff! I'm exhausted. Here I've talked about the contrast to inside and outside the Bush speech last night, which again I'll discuss more later on when I do the full review. Let's move on, shall we, to my most re-tweeted twitter post EVER!
Apparently the #yeg #WCB hostage taker is a disgruntled client. Police have 3.1 million suspects. #Alberta #yyc #ableg - @Proletarianist Apparently none. Most ppl I talked to bought in the first week & show sold out. VIP tickets from sponsors were comp, I tried
- If #yeg WCB workers get injured by the hostage taking gunman, will they B denied #WCB benefits for "injuries unrelated to normal work tasks"
- @neal_gray Hey thats more viewers than my broken sound cameraphone walkthrough of the Fringe grounds. Barely.
- ON&PQ Nortel Employees upset that their pensions (unsecured credit) mean they're treated as unsecured creditors http://bit.ly/1A2x7Y #roft
- My most re-tweeted tweet ever leaves me... 10 followers short of what I was yesterday. #howthefuckdoesthatwork
- @graceawong @ashkrav I say surprising. We in the Shaw figured all the lunatics in Edm would be home w/ laryngitis after so much screaming.
- @IMAO_ All the 1985 Iroc-Z's probably aren't equipped for such an evacuation
- Where exactly is cordoned off? #yeg #WCBhostage #yeghostage
- @spiritualnubian Providing a voice to the voiceless, as it were.
- @StuartParsons No, actually. WCB can refuse benefits for injuries sustained at work not related to employment duties
- @himynameisandy They haven't called me
- I think I saw her at the Bush concert. I wonder if I should try that as my pickup line?
- If the #yeg hostage crisis makes you in any way question the glorious operation of our dear WCB the terrorists have already won!
- Ok, that was weird.
- One of EPS's super advanced tactical trucks is stalled on 100 ave at 108 street. I think they are trying to taser it started! #yeg
- An extra-long #WCB tweet: http://bit.ly/vlZgI #yeg #yeghostage #ableg
- @bevurlee No clue, but I could forward your examination to one later if you so desire.
- Pork chop? RT @vegantreble I'm not sure what to go as for halloween; anyone have any ideas
- @bevurlee No no, then I can't help check for breast cancer: http://bit.ly/VNx6T
- @Sirthinks It depends on what the original job was.

- .@atypicalalbertn @Shoq Want to end abortion forever? Remove Morgantaler's private clinics, institute 10 month abortion waiting lists. #roft
- .@SkiFernie I don't know what this has to do with your resort, but it sure makes me want to go back! http://bit.ly/3uo8Z2
- The Greatest President of the 21st Century(TM) spoke in #Saskatoon, #Saskatchewan tonight. http://bit.ly/iPNmn #sask #roft #Bush
- Even hardcore leftists will admit that when George W. Bush landed in Saskatoon he was officially the smartest person in town.
- @MicheRyder So that's where my date was. I should have learned my lesson last time!
- .@allahpundit When the #Toronto #MapleLeafs play the #Ottawa #Senators I dream of a jumbo jet hitting the stadium killing both teams & fans.
- @Sirthinks Cost too much to fly him up from Argentina.
- .@Sirthinks Out of idle curiosity, when you compare Bush and Hitler do you wonder why I accused you of a serious case of BDS yesterday?
