Emily’s Wacky Wednesday Internets Round-Up: Week 4

Emily’s Wacky Wednesday Internets Round-Up: Week 4


Sha-WHOO I thought I would never make it, but I did! I crossed the finish line and did not even TRY to pass the torch. I am on a relay team with MYSELF (in keeping with our theme this week, my athletic failure story is coming soon). I am a champion of deadline-keeping and frankly, I fear disapproval too much to let this weekly thing fail. But I swear to you, if I do not get a supportive tweet about this series and how I should keep it up and how you look forward to enjoying the round-up with your afternoon salty snack (like your ham-bag if you are Jessie or your juice-jug if you are Katie) then well…I will probably just pose some more empty threats.

Let’s get to it!

Items of interest week of 4/13 – 4/19

Problem: When it comes to personality, you are just dull as tombs. You are a musty old claptrap (as Lucille I would say). BUT you still want to keep all your tweeterings fresh.

Solution: A random aggregator makes your tweets sound even less coherent than you were last Saturday.

Problem: You think you are just the loneliest. (So far this week’s EWWIRU is a little bit of a Debbie Downer, sorry.)

Solution: These Cheetos will make you feel like you have a blaze orange bosom friend and he is waiting for you on some dirty old subway seat.

Problem: Minneapolis doesn’t have a Learning Annex like we are always hearing about in the television shows and the major motion pictures and the New York City kind of people who say “I am a true New Yorker.”

Solution: Get it in our city. Be a teacher. Take a lesson. (This is not so much wacky as it is following the crowdsourcing model of Wiki – it’s neat!)

Problem: You do not know what the truly very lovely and funny (read her blog!) Kat Dennings was doing before she was in Nick & Norah and The 40 Year Old Virgin.

Solution: ZOMGMOMXMMZGOOOZMZZZ

Problem: In a similar vein to the piece above, you cannot seem to convince your family of just one thing.

Solution: Get ’em all behind you. IN SONG!

Problem: Books are heavy and you have a lot of them.

Solution: NERD ALERT/Re-purposing fetish. This lady will design you a place to keep your heavy books MADE OUT OF YOUR HEAVY BOOKS.
