You might already know about the constant stream of inspirational nonsense and hilarity that is
Donnie Wahlberg's Twitter. If you don't, it's an awe-inspiring glimpse into the mind behind the myth (or something). (If you don't have Twitter, you can also follow him on LJ with the
ddub_holla feed.)
Anyway, one of the most striking things about Donnie's Twitter is how very, very un-Lipton-like it is. He is fond of exclamation points and motivational proclamations like,
most recently, "Some work to live- some live to work. I grind for the glory! Not external glory- INNER GLORY!! The glory of fulfillment! Rise and Grind!" Ever since

Now there's a drabble. Most of Lipton's lines are direct quotes. Hope you enjoy it!"People! Are you ready? Are you ready? Damn, we getting ready!"
More frowns. "Who the hell is that?"
Smokey shakes his head. "I think I got an idea, but I hope like hell it ain't right."
