How to 3D Print Your Own Plastic Records for a Fisher Price Record Player – My jaw dropped open. This is super cool. I had one of those record players!
Sometimes spending 4 hours in the pub with your co-workers is *exactly* what you need.
@RoseRed_Shoes ARE YOU KIDDING? I have the special edition DVD I can lend you after if you want to see the deleted scenes.
@RoseRed_Shoes Rodd and @kunaal84 had never seen it either. Your whole generation of Aussies missed out. It’s GNARLY. GOONIES NEVER SAY DIE!
How about I drink something that *isn’t* alcamaholic for a little bit? How about that idea?
@kunaal84 @RoseRed_Shoes Actually, I feel like watching it RIGHT NOW! To the DVD player!
Seriously, the theme to The Goonies is one of the best movie soundtracks of all time.
@knitterjp @rosered_shoes @kunaal84 The Special Edition DVD, by the way, has commentary by the grown-up cast. Josh Brolin is BRUTALLY HOT.
@knitterjp @rosered_shoes @kunaal84 For more information: http://t.co/1LHYxODN
@kunaal84 @knitterjp @RoseRed_Shoes You just totes ruined my Halloween costume. (WHY ARE YOU NOT ON SKYPE?)
“Well Mrs. Walsh, I speak perfect Spanish! And I’d be happy to communicate with Rosalita…” This was *such* a good idea.
@RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp @kunaal84 I used to take my blog a lot more seriously.
@knitterjp @kunaal84 @rosered_shoes The Snook and I quote Data at least once a fortnight: “I am wondering, what is in the bag?!”
@drkknits @kunaal84 @knitterjp @RoseRed_Shoes And thus commences the Sean Astin Appreciation Club. Paging @imdominating…
@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @kunaal84 @knitterjp I have switched to the live broadcast so I may watch along with you. DAMN, ANDIE SUCKS.
@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @kunaal84 @knitterjp Martha Plimpton (Stef) is AWESOME. I saw her onstage in a play in Chicago once. Fantastic.
@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @kunaal84 @knitterjp In high school we watched The Goonies translated in German. Hilariously, gnarly = gnarly.
@knitterjp @drkknits @rosered_shoes @kunaal84 Trivia: They hid the pirate ship from the kids til the sequence when they first see it.
@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp @kunaal84 Let’s be honest: Worst. CGI. Rocks. Ever.
@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp @kunaal84 “You are my best invention.” *sob*
@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp @kunaal84 “Sloth? You’re gonna live with me now. I’m gonna take care of ya… because I love ya.” *sob*
Mikey is lucky he lives in America and not the UK, where those jewels would be, like treasure trove. And then his house would be foreclosed.
@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp @kunaal84 And now it is time for some Cyndi Lauper randomness: http://t.co/rF47cXDb
@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @knitterjp I have switched to Kate Beckinsale in “Emma.” Because I’m all high-falutin and shit.
Ugh. Goonies is over and I think my hangover is starting to kick in…
@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @knitterjp Me neither. I did care a great deal for Jeremy Northam, though. Too bad he’s not in this one.
@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @knitterjp Wow. Kate Beckinsale before she got all slutty and vampire-y. I need to watch Cold Comfort Farm again…
@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @knitterjp ZOMG. SOMEONE WITH A HUGE FOREHEAD AND CHIN. DO NOT WANT.
@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @knitterjp Mark Strong. OH DEAR GOD, HE’S THE BADDIE FROM KICK-ASS. WTF.
@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp It was on a few nights ago. I recorded it for just such an occasion.
The best part of being married to @the_snook is when I say, “Hey, Prunella Scales!” he barkes without a beat from the other room: “BASIL!”
@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @lifehacker So. Not. Paleo.
@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @knitterjp But wow. Farmer Martin is kind of a babe. So this version has that going for it.
@drkknits Are you saying I should stop tweeting you?
This Mr. Knightley is a dick.
For the record: James Squire Orchard Crush cider is *very* tasty. But damn, it gives a wicked headache a few hours later.
It’s not every day you get to work and see Nazis drinking cappucino on your street.
@lemon_lime Nah, not yet. Have to build up *very* slowly. By “run,” I really mean walk with a bit of light jogging. Better than nothing!
@BendalongMorgan Yep, apparently. Some historical drama filming in the Rocks…
RT @samesame: BREAKING: Prime Minister @JuliaGillard says she’ll now no longer speak at the AUS Christian Lobby’s conference next month. …
Aine and I enjoying the sun at our first official Rocks Social Knitting Group. @ The Paddock-Pottinger Park http://t.co/eGottvQv
@VenessaHunt Sweet Art are amazing, but sooooo expensive: http://t.co/JWUDI9EY.
@lemon_lime You do realise it’s a trilogy, right? 🙂 (I only read the first one.)
How to motivate your devs: zucchini bread! http://t.co/66iGt346
@gilmae There’s a EULA on this zucchini bread that signs you up to work all weekend to meet a deadline. You are forewarned.
Got “Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy” on my knee. Happily, I can start running again!! http://instagr.am/p/PNncHPRJBh/

Got a thick non-descript envelope in the post last night; thought it was my new CC. Instead it was from Liberal Party. EEEK! BURN THAT CRAP!
@steven_noble Yep, Rodd interviewed with them earlier in the year. Disappointed to find out role was in the US. Not looking to leave Syd.
@drkknits That was legit. I was just listening to a song I thought you’d particularly like. 🙂
@drkknits Wasn’t sure if you use Spotify or not!
@drkknits Spotify annoyed me at first; the interface is slightly confusing. But now I like it a lot. Listen to it all day at work.
@drkknits If you can’t get it, this is the video for the song: http://t.co/KchErOu9. Don’t, like, cry or anything. 🙂
@drkknits They Might Be Giants do really nice cover version too, but I am partial to the original. My friend @spycoredotnet knows the band!
RT @imdominating: “Success isn’t about how much money you make. It’s about the difference you make in people’s lives.” <— That. Rig …
@drkknits @imdominating That’s my cousin. You’d get along. She prefers R.Pattz to our hot Swedish Viking, which is weird I’ll admit.
@imdominating @drkknits I think our brains all went to the same place. Right? Right.
@imdominating @drkknits OH HELLZ YEAH.
Okay, Aine and I are planning a Rocks lunchtime knitting session in the sun tomorrow. Anybody want to join us? @blakkat?
@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @redambition I’ll add that to the list of 45 million other projects I’ve got to do. 😛
@drkknits @redambition @RoseRed_Shoes Except I still have to embroider my cat heads on this quilt. Yes, seriously. And then a bicycle.
@drkknits @redambition @RoseRed_Shoes Yes. It’s going to be magnificent.
@drkknits @redambition @RoseRed_Shoes I never said it was going to be classy. Magnificent, yes. Classy, definitely not. 😛
@crumpet Ooh. Exhibition? Did I miss this? Where I can see crumpart in Sydney??
@squozen @crumpet o_O
@crumpet Sure! You’re welcome to crash at our place if you need. The 15th is also the next Knitters Guild meeting if you want to join us…
@crumpet Oh, durrr. I read “the next weekend” as next weekend. Regardless, guest room offer stands. 🙂
@crumpet @knitterjp Ooh! We’ll be sure to tell everybody about it at the Guild meeting then.
There’s only one post, but already http://t.co/D14K8Bbq is pretty damn awesome. I laughed at the “soup cans”.
Does anyone know if @shopify offer discounts for non-profits?
@knitterjp You have redefined the uncomfortableness of a tweet too! DO NOT WANT, JP!
@witty_knitter @knitterjp I’m just suggesting a social covenant whereby we do not allude to cold speculums or things that are even worse!
Prince Philip Wears a Kilt — Totally Flashes His Penis http://t.co/nQlRP7zM // Best headline ever. Cc @the_snook
@knitterjp @witty_knitter But you triggered my imagination!!
WTF is happening in the CBD. Stuck near Martin Place for 10min now. Can hear loud noises and cheering?
Hm. Finally moving. Couldn’t see anything at Martin Place. Was it something at Establishment?
Prepping for the next embroidery. I’m kind of a genius. #magnificent #notclassy http://t.co/7pQyJvvK
Simon Callow is doing ads for crappy McCain frozen foods? REVEREND BEEBE, HOW COULD YOU. (I assume this is an only-in-Oz thing, @jannism?)

Nice. If I lied about my times the way he did, I’d have done a 4:18!
