I tweet from my phone, while delivering papers (there's no law in Michigan yet so back off!). Sometimes I get really bored, so I go way overboard with Twitter.
Today, Twitter was pretty quiet, so I tried to start a trend going. A few days ago, one of the Trending Topics was #oneletteroffmovies. People would change one letter of a movie title to make something ridiculous and funny. So I started up #oneletteroffgames.
Initially my ideas were really lame, and I was directing them to some bigger names in the hopes that they would jump on the bandwagon and set all of Twitter ablaze. Instead, several of my fellow Bitmobbers joined in, and it was fun. So I thought I'd share with you.
Jon couldn't seem to think of anything, James never seemed sure of himself when he did, and I never shut up, but we had fun.
If you want to read more of our random Bitmob joke sessions in order to better convince you that Twitter is awesome, you can read a fairly PC one that Lance posted here, and a VERY un-PC one that I posted here. Just don't read that second one if you are easily offended, or a law enforcement officer.
