  1. Windows 8 Mad Libs

    WPWordFlow reveals Microsoft’s opinion of its users

    Yo momma is the largest city in America. Batman and I don’t understand each other. Guess what I’m wearing shorts lol jk. These are a few of the texts Microsoft thinks you want to send to other human beings.

    WPWordFlow is a relatively new Twitter account that explores the predictive text feature on Windows Phone 8. According to the profile, “Every word except the first one is added sequentially using Windows Phone 8’s suggested words bar.”

    Some of them make total sense:

    With others, you can’t help but sense a bit of the stereotypical Microsoft nerd seep in:

    The Best Twitter Casting Calls From Central Casting

    Central Casting is on Twitter. Their bio:

    We are Central Casting! The leading background actors casting company in the United States since 1925! And these are our tweets:)

    So charming!

    The New York Observer noticed some great casting-call tweets for HBO’s Girls. So I dug through the company’s NY and LA feeds from the last three years and found all the best casting calls. Some are funny, some just evoke a great story. (If you look like a “hipster” you could be an extra in everything. Same if you are a baby.)

    In New York:

    @GuarascioPort: Tweets From the Now-Dead Witty Fake Twitter Account of the New “Community” Showrunners

    You already know that Sony replaced Community showrunner Dan Harmon with the two guys who ran Just Shoot Me!. You might also know that Sony sent out a stupid memo to Community‘s cast, feeding them stupid lines about this stupid change.

    You might even know about the fake Twitter account for Community’s new show runners, David Guarascio and Moses Port. But did you know that it just got shut down? Did the parodists just change their name to something less likely to confuse total idiots? Or did Sony ask Twitter to swing the banhammer?

    UPDATE: The account’s back. Or it just wasn’t loading for us. Or something! But we’re having trouble embedding tweets, so if you’re having trouble too, see our screencap below.

    They deleted the tweet, according to their media relations director, because their reporter got “inundated with emails and calls.” Meanwhile, other fake journalists teased them:

    He tweets:

    He has 1,357 followers after posting a Reddit thread, which contains this gem:

    Surely there are better ways to go on a date with Chris Brown.

    Man, it must suck to spend the rest of your life having people hate you for that time you beat your girlfriend, and that other time you beat your girlfriend, and that time you danced at a club the day you got sentenced for beating your girlfriend, and that time you acted like the world owes it to you to forget all of this happened and not at least try to act like there’s a long healing process ahead.
