That’s cute. I mildly prefer Hamlet’s facebook feed, though.

“Ophelia loves flowers. Flowers flowers flowers flowers flowers. Oh, look, a river.
Ophelia joined the group Maidens Who Don’t Float.
Laertes wonders what the hell happened while he was gone.”

Having joined the evil empire only hours ago, I wondered for a moment if its tentacles really reached this far….

The feed is based off of a McSweeney’s feature that I found much funnier, although the Facebook feed was more creative. Feature: http://www.mcsweeneys.net/2008/7/30schmelling.html

Here’s the hamlet with better graphic design (I hope no major copyright violations, hm…): http://www.angelfire.com/art2/antwerplettuce/hamlet.html

And my personal favorite of this genre so far is genesis: http://www.collegehumor.com/article:1764710

Apparently the Archbishop of Canterbury is on Twitter.

(Well, no. It’s a hoax. But quite a funny one.)

Michael @5, you’ve provided me a horrible vision of future philosophy of religion exams.

Can God lol before he creates an Earth group?

Is a god who has ‘lmao’d less perfect than on who remains fully connected to his ass? And yet, surely an omnipotent god must have the power to lmao?

Oh the paradoxes.

Bingley rented a house. He didn’t get around to buying his own estate until a year after he married Jane.
