My favorite hashtag

June 12, 2011

Right now I don’t have time to keep up with all of my friends’ tweets, so I read those of strangers instead.

On May 19 I overheard something funny and tweeted it using hashtag #overheard. I’ve subsequently found this hashtag to be a steady source of wacky vicarious fun. Below are some favorite quotes.
