@mattchew03: WTF? Boo!! Phoenix is too far away; stay in NY! (But stay with someone else, b/c this chick sucks.) Seriously, we need to figure out how to make you have a happy birthday!! Again, porn is the only thing that is coming to mind, but I will keep at it! #saturdaynightspecial
@DahlELama: UGH, IKR? So glad I canceled on Vegas. OH GUESS WHAT, now I have to go to Phoenix on WEDNESDAY. I'm so pissed. SO pissed. I'll have one day at home before I have to go there, and I haven't turned in my dry cleaning or anything, and I need those clothes for meetings and stuff. It's so annoying. Plus, there's the whole being-alone-in-Phoenix-on-my-birthday thing. OH, and the UGH WHY AM I SO MAD RIGHT NOW? FUCK THIS. #saturdaynightspecial
@Phyllis Nefler: I used to go to this thing when I was little called ~Vacation Bible School~ or "VBS". We had to go on little adventures and visit pretend gypsum caves and lift up the name of the Lord and things like such as. #saturdaynightspecial
@pony_express: Greys really mostly sleep all day. They are short burst creatures once they're a few years old. A retired raced would make a great pet. As for the rabbit, well, just supervise them. #juliaallison
@Foster Kamer: Dogs love the city. They are social creatures, like us. Having time to raise a puppy is tough, as they need walking several times a day and endless play to wear them out. But an older, calmed down shelter dog, already housetrained, will be grateful for the rest of its days for a kind home. If you have a neighbor who can let it out once during the day, and if you come home at nite even for a little while, you will have done it a great kindness. And you can go to the dog park together. #juliaallison
@Phyllis Nefler: I've been meaning to tell you (even though you have no idea who I am), I saw what Bill Simmons said and I thought it was so cool. Nice job! #saturdaynightspecial
@Foster Kamer: I TOTALLY ALREADY PICKED BROOKLYN FOR WHEN I MOVE HERE. QUEENS FUCKING SUCKS I AM SO ANGRY RIGHT NOW. AND I STILL WANT TO GO OUT. ALSO, WHY AM I TALKING IN CAPS? I DON'T KNOW BUT WHATEVER. #saturdaynightspecial
@Foster Kamer: Doesn't it? Donating blood used to be the only nice thing I ever did and then they took it away from me and now I'm just a bitch. #saturdaynightspecial
I don't know why I'm still awake, but I blame it all on you guys, so now I'm going to play a game I like to call "share a little-known fact about yourself." I'll start with "I'm banned for life from giving blood because Hep B tests of my blood randomly result in false positives for reasons no one can explain." #saturdaynightspecial
@mattchew03: All so true!! We need to fly Hen up here--I bet he'd show you a good time! (Or at least take you to eat some weird rodents.) Well, at least now you know you definitely made the right move deciding not to spend the b-day w/her in LV! I wish I could think of a good way to redeem your night but at this point, it's late, and porn is all that's coming to mind... #saturdaynightspecial
I think your argument that it's an empty word is flawed on two accounts. For one, the fact that it's a subjective term (and may frequently be used by two people to describe each other) is surely irrelevant -- the same could be said of many an insulting term. Second, substitution of an arbitrary word *could* in fact lead to lost nuance, because it's not necessarily quite the same as, say, "asshole" or "jerk". People vary in how narrowly they employ the word, but I've noticed that (at least among the people I've heard using it) there's a certain tendency to use it describe a person that might just as easily have been described as a jerk or an asshole except that he (and it's almost always a he) is also faulted for maintaining some sort of pretension or affectation. Of course, the meanings associated with words that lie at the outskirts of polite speech (or beyond) can change rapidly, so I might be behind the curve on this, and there may be variation by region as well, so my experience on the matter may be far from universally representative.
And if the above made me sound like a self-impressed douche by being too damn long-winded, sorry about that. #newyorktimes

My stupid ass friend, who is lame as fuck and has been a Debbie Downer all weekend, just came out of her room and said to me:
"I feel so much better."
I asked, "Why?"
She said, "Because I just masturbated."
I was like, "Oh, that's great, do you want to go out with me?"
She says, "No, I'm gonna clean off my dildo and go back to bed."
