Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for May 31, 2012

Never saw those two before on this strip.

A cute little Canary(You know.. the one that can’t pronounce ‘s’) might actually have been more appropriate for today’s strip.. :D

Twitter, medeivel style.

Texting used to be so much more fun.

Hey, you old Twitter! You need updating!

This is just like Harry Potter.

Why did he have to put a ‘T’ at the end of ‘H8’? Eight already has a ‘T’ on the end… kids today can’t even spell correctly when tweeting!

These days unfortunately, the student would probably flip her the bird.

The real tweet is here!!! Was wondering where people got the teminology that sending a message was a tweet. Guess if was done long ago by carrier pigeon.

Good one.

But the bird never tweeted – that was the punchline omitted.

[Jack] Dorsey introduced the idea of an individual using an SMS service to communicate with a small group.12 The original project code name for the service was twttr, an idea that Williams later ascribed to Noah Glass,13 inspired by Flickr and the five-character length of American SMS short codes.

“Twitter” — Wikipedia

I believe a “tweet” was born from the saying “a little bird told me” which is the purpose of Twitter.

Twits are made AND bored.

THAT’S a good one!

I loved this one – had to send it to my Tweeps!

It’s actually “h8”
