December 17th, 2009Burritos, comedy, Thuper Therious ThursdayIf you know me at all, you know that I need a pair of these glasses. No questions asked. I want burrito vision. Thank you, Fashionably Geek (@NerdApproved) for introducing these to the world.
Need a gift idea for a burrito lover? Look no further.
Burrito. Glasses.
If you could create any “vision” of your own, what would YOU create?Word.

December 10th, 2009facebook, Thuper Therious ThursdaySometimes we forget the correct etiquette and proper manners for Facebook usage. In case you HAVE, in fact, forgotten the rules, here is a short 1950′s-esque video to remind you. Enjoy. (I wish I could do my hair like Alice…)

November 19th, 2009social media, Thuper Therious ThursdayAhhh who doesn’t love awkward dating and mating social media vernacular? I am going to go out on a limb and say this scenario, although exaggerated, is probably happening at bars across America and beyond. The reasons this is happening are THREE-FOLD:
- Social Media Vocabulary can be awkward. Poke. Tweet. Twitter. Twit. Tag. Digg. Write on your wall. Blog post. See? All awkward and carry awkward innuendos.
- We are Social Media saturated. You and I both know, social media is err’ywhere. Walk into a coffee shop, a restaurant, a bar, a bookstore, a library – how many people are probably checking facebook, texting, or tweeting? They are even passing legislation in states making it illegal to TWEET while driving. Duh.
- Boys are getting desperate. No, not all boys… and notice I didn’t say MEN. Men wouldn’t dare hit on a woman with a social media term. Boys, however, would. (And a woman, would never ask a man if she could “poke” him.) In fact, no lie, I was hit on once by a guy who yelled across a bar at me and said, “Yo! Female! Lemme get that backslash.” He was referring to my “myspace.com [BACKSLASH] username.” Needless to say, I did not give him my “backslash.” Not okay. Am I right?
The professional woman in me is disgusted by the utterly ridiculous attempts by boys to pick up women in this way. However, the comedian in me thinks it’s hilarious.
So, here is my FIRST OFFICIAL BLOG CHALLENGE/CONTEST: Leave a comment with your best awkward pick-up line that uses some sort of social network term OR tell me a hilarious story where you actually got hit-on using social networking terminology and the winner will receive a surprise prize. Get creative. Think outside the web? You know what I mean.
Word.

November 12th, 2009Thuper Therious Thursday, twitterToday’s video cracked me up. It’s the simple things in life.
Although most of us know that Twitter isn’t REALLY about answering that time-honored “What Are You Doing?” question, it does seem a bit crazy when you step back and think about what you’re actually doing when you post a Tweet.
Well, College Humor’s Dan Gurewitch (@dangurewitch) decided to hit the streets and test out what it would really be like if he announced what he was doing (like on Twitter), but in REAL LIFE. The results are hilarious. Enjoy!
Word.

November 5th, 2009Thuper Therious Thursday, twitterYes, this exists.
For this week’s Thuper Therious Thursday, I thought I’d share this incredibly scary, adorable, weird, funny, [insert adjective here] video by @iJustine. iJustine is a blogger, vlogger, tech geeker, and tweeter. I have to give her credit, although it’s cheesy, it covers the entire Twitter spectrum. Hashtags and all.
Anyway, enjoy! If you were to write your own Twitter song, what would YOU call it? It can be an original or a spoof.
