• 09:27:06: @TrishaTelep Ingesting glass? What have you been doing to yourself?!
  
• 09:27:24: Good morning, Twitter, are you safe today?
  
• 10:23:12: No, Amazon, I am not looking for something in your pop CDs category. Your recommendation system is fail!
  
• 10:57:49: @Scarimonious Amazon is like your annoying friend who insistsif you sit and listen to this teeny-bop album, you'll get it, you know?
  
• 10:59:13: Thought I'd found a cool-looking UF book, but there's a gang-rape scene it. Really? Can't UF heroines walk down alleys without being raped?
  
• 10:59:52: http://www.unheardtaunts.com/wir/ Women in Refrigerators is all I have to say about that. Less rape, more actual characterisation, please!
  
• 11:29:28: @Scarimonious God forbid they empower themselves in a manner that doesn't involve sex. That would cause the apocalypse!
  
• 13:04:05: @TrishaTelep Opening bottles with your teeth is a great party trick though!
  
• 14:13:21: Wow, just trying to read the Kindle guide to publishing on Kindle has put me right off even attempting it... My eyes are bleeding
  
• 14:19:21: I have too much technofear to deal with this brave new world. I want to live in a cave and barter with carrots and sheep
  
• 14:19:45: I mean, use carrots and sheep to barter with other people for stuff, not just barter with carrots and sheep. That would get me nowhere
  
• 14:22:26: @Scarimonious Kindle or bartering with carrots and sheep?
  
• 14:26:41: @Scarimonious But there's always more we can learn! Can turnips and goats be brought into the equation, for example
  
• 14:27:18: @Scarimonious As far as Kindle goes, I expect it's actually a lot simpler than all the sub-folders and acronyms lead me to believe
  
• 14:32:27: @Scarimonious You're doing better than me. I've managed to log into Amazon thus far
  
• 14:34:11: @Scarimonious This How-To Guide needs a How-To-How-To Guide. If this is the future, I'm doomed
  
• 14:37:11: @ktabic That's the kind of future I can only dream about
  
• 14:39:05: There's ISBNs involved. I can pay hundreds of dollars for one if I want! I thought the money flowed to the writer. That's the rule, right?
  
• 14:41:49: I give up. I don't want to be a publisher, I want to write and have someone else worry about formatting and ISBNs. Forget you, Kindle!
  
• 14:42:15: And the first person who tells me how much I could make self-publishing on Kindle gets a smack upside the face
  
• 14:42:49: I'm really not anti-self-publishing. I'd just rather play with my carrots and sheep
  
• 14:52:02: @Scarimonious Come join me in the technologically inferior, but more pleasing Cave of Bartering to Survive
  
• 16:58:14: Freedom!
