So, I was bored this evening... and wondered loudly in a tweet... "I wonder how long it will be until someone writes a Twitter/Thriller parody". I wrote one line and it got like 15 retweets, so I decided to do the whole song. So, in honor of MJ's funeral tomorrow and in honor of Twitter breaking his news... here it is a Twitter parody in all it twitteriffic awesomeness. Follow @teedubya

It's close to midnight and something's on your mind that you must tweet.
Open your mac book, you see a website that is really effin' sweet.
Wanna re-tweet, but tweetdeck lost your tweet before you tweet it.
TweetDeck starts to freeze, as Tweetdeck is kind of a resource hog.
But Im not gonna blog!
Cause this is Twitter, Twitter night!
And no one's gonna save you from the tweets you try to type
You know it's Twitter, Twitter night
You're fighting for retweets inside a killer, twitter tonight
You check your profile and realize you've got fourteen new replies
You start to laugh as you notice they are spymaster invites.
You close the site and hope they ban this abomination. Whew!
But all the while you feel another tweet creeping in your mind
You're out of time
'Cause this is Twitter, Twitter night!
There ain't no chance against the thing with hundred forty let-ters
Twitter, Twitter night
You're fighting for retweets inside a killer, twitter tonight
Who'll first get a million, @CNN, @BritneySpears or @AplusK
There's no escaping the addiction that @ev @biz & @jack made
(24-7-365)
The end of your free time.
They wanna follow you, there's tweeters bloggin on every website
they will retweet your jokes and your random bullshit all the time
Now is the time for you and I to check the twitter grader, yeah

That this is Twitter, Twitter night
'Cause I can tweet more than any tweep except maybe @KimSherrell
Twitter, Twitter night

Twitter, Twitter night
You're fighting for retweets inside a killer, twitter, ow!
(I'm gonna tweet ya tonight)
Darkness falls across the land
The Fail Whale is close at hand
Spambots crawl in search of blood
To twitterize your inbox good.
And whosoever shall be found
Follow their tweets all around
Use URL shorteners
Like Bit.ly, Is.Gd or TinyURL
I'm gonna tweet ya tonight, ooh baby
I'm gonna tweet ya tonight, oh darlin'
Twitter night, baby, ooh!
The foulest stench is in the air
The funk of a hundred forty characters
Oprah & Ellen tweeted, Twitter boomed
Noobs are closing in to seal its doom
And though you fight to stay offline
Your fingers start to shiver
For no mere mortal can resist
The awesome of the Twitter!
Mwah hah HAH AHAHAh ahah
Disgustingly cute, little turtles will piss on you, if you aren't cautious.
an office for and by architects, of course!
Can you imagine the zen'd out moments you would have in this space? Unreal. Im inspired just LOOKING at it!
Omg... Ass kicker... Literally!

The Toronto Star just released an article where they ranked the top 37 sports teams in North America. Kansas City = #36.
This really makes no sense to me. They have Kansas City located in Illinois, southwest of Chicago. So, maybe they mean, Kansas City, Illinois?
And Indianapolis is the #1 sports town in North America? ORLY?
What about, oh, uh... say... BOSTON, with its 3 NFL championships, its 2 MLB championships and the NBA championship they won last year. WTF has Indianapolis won, besides ONE NFL championship?
Then I realized.... WTF does Canada know about sports anyway? Seriously... One word, Canada.... Curling. WTF is curling and why should I care?
Kansas City is 36 out of 37? That ain't cool... you hurt our mediocre feewings.
Oh, and whoever made your graphic, Toronto Star... FAIL.
So, I see all of the cool kids are doing it... and since I am one of the "cooler" kids... I guess I need to set it up.
I have a couple of more professional blogs, but I haven't had any that really allow me to say whatever is on my mind and allow the inner smart ass to blossum into full bloom.
Maybe this is it, maybe not. You need to protect your personal brand right? Well, luckily after 36 years, I finally have a decent "bullshit filter" that allows me to NOT say everything that is on my mind. This is typically a good thing, a great thing even!
Perhaps the Berlin Wall of Bullshit needs to have a place where it can roam freely?
Stay tuned, I guess. heh.
