Gah. The app developer thinks it was funny? Maybe someone could point out how the first thinly veiled death threat appears less than half a dozen comments into the comment thread on the story.

OTOH, nobody from Mississippi has appeared here yet to complain about how badly I'm misrepresenting them. ;-)

I shall now retreat to my Smug Bastion of Gay Nerditude and throw rainbow stock options at the troglodytes.

Ha! Troglodytes deserve as many rainbows as you can toss, including any residing in Mississippi.

Unless I un-check the "Repost to Twitter" box under LJ's Reply box (which I can only see when I switch the LOLMac layout to "Style=mine"), all my replies are auto-Tweeted with the subject line OR the first 121 characters of my reply + 1 space + an 18-character shortened URL.

I sometimes forget that there's so much violent hatred & homophobia in the world (and online) because I live in a comfortable bubble of friends who share the same beliefs & morés.

tweet entries

Maybe I'm confused -- I thought you went back after each daily auto-post has autoposted to LJ, and renamed the roundup post from 'My Tweets' to some suitably pithy or wordy item from the day's list. I was more than half expecting to see 'Smug bastion of nerditude' and/or 'Rainbow stock options for troglodytes' turn up in that context. That's all.

No, I'm the confused one who mistook "tweet entries" to mean actual Tweets instead of "LJ auto-Tweet logs" -- which I *do* need to go back & edit now that LJ has finally fixed the worst bugs in their RTE & HTML interface that were preventing me from doing so.

Maybe the app should've been titled "Gay Inside Jokes in French Lost in Translation"?

UPDATE: Google caves to pressure, removes "Is My Son Gay?" app which was commissioned as publicity for an upcoming book with the same title:
