RT @Sitback: Sitback sets its sites http://t.co/OWJ2tGAD // I was a member of that Subaru BRZ team, and I’m really proud of it!


Wait, WTF? Some person wants to start a Guild group in the Inner West? Uh, we already have the Inner City group meeting in Surry Hills!


@willemrt Sorry, I forget that not all my followers are knitters. ๐Ÿ™‚ Knitters Guild of NSW.


@willemrt We give free lessons. Surry Hills Library, 2nd Sat each month at 2pm. Email learntoknit@knittersguildnsw.org.au to book in. ๐Ÿ™‚


@witty_knitter Fair enough, I guess. I just like having us all in one ginormous group/army.


@voicework I could see that working at some hipster barbers in Sydney. There’s one in the Rocks where it would fit right in.


@witty_knitter Weird. I’d feel much more comfortable hiding in a big group than going to one with only a few! Harden up, introverts. ๐Ÿ™‚


@witty_knitter Ooh, that sucks. Need to get @drkknits and @knitdra involved. Maybe revive the welcoming committee?


@witty_knitter I try to be very welcoming to new folks and sit with them. However, some of them are BORING so it’s a sacrifice. ๐Ÿ˜›


@drkknits @witty_knitter @knitdra I can see some validity, given that many of us have experienced being ostracised at other groups.


@drkknits @witty_knitter @knitdra But I also think some people are big, weird, introverted babies. ๐Ÿ˜›


@blakepup That is a tragedy. Take some pepto and go! Porteno is worth it!


@drkknits @witty_knitter @knitdra This is what happens when you work in an ivory tower all day long, Rapunzel. MIX WITH US COMMONERS.


@drkknits @witty_knitter @knitdra I would quote some P&P at you about being ill-suited to recommend oneself, but that shit is annoying.


@witty_knitter @drkknits @knitdra I just dislike needless complexity. One group has advantages of size and resources.


Can’t decide if my need to see myself as the Veronica in a world of Heathers is a healthy attitude or a lame self-delusion.


On the plus side, that means @the_snook is Christian Slater.


@AusVintageGrrl Fair enough. Just think it’s a bit silly to think we need a separate group for each individual snowflake’s circumstances.


@AusVintageGrrl Meh. I always think there’s a point at which too much choice becomes a detriment. *shrug*


I know some people who may be interviewing at Yahoo. I have told them to follow @blakkat. Any other Y!7ers I know on Twitter?


@The_Ausmerican Only if itโ€™s okay that I considered unfriending the folks who keep liking Harvey Norman just to try to win free Android crap


RT @oliyoung: Only hours until we see the Samsung Galaxy 4 design


Wow. Getting from Chippo to Randwick is a major pain. Taxi will cost more than the movie!


Raiders of the Lost Ark! #geekfest (@ Ritz Cinema w/ 4 others) http://t.co/Rsqd5Rfc


I just reached Level 2 of the “Zoetrope” badge on @foursquare. Iโ€™ve checked in at 5 different movie theaters! http://t.co/Yd5ld5AA


John Rhys-Davies is a nutter. Fascinating, erudite, but a complete nutter. Heโ€™s been talking for 90 minutes non-stop!


Jonathan Rhys-Davies going on and on (and on and on) at tonight’s Raiders screening. Very cool. http://t.co/FkLDDJFi


RT @hexsteph: Now he’s providing women with tips on how to avoid varicose veins. Not even joking. It’s gotten very weird. #andmyaxe


@chewxy Damn. Sign up to Popcorn Taxiโ€™s mailing list! Well worth it. They do great events.


@mikeefreedom Yeah, Popcorn Taxi. They had Sallah there afterwards to talk. Fun night, but late for me. *yawn*
