Twitterball 39: Alas Poor Yoricking
This week on my Twitter feed, oh the relief as this year's X Factor limps to an end, and the even greater relief as I miss most of it.
Just about stopped myself from yelling "CUNT!" as I woke up at about 6am. (Ricky Gervais had just shown up in a nightmare.)

Attention: Girls Aloud just rhymed "basin" with "washing my face in." Des'ree's quaking in her boots.

Woman on train's INCREDIBLY URGENT series of phone calls turns out to be about exactly how she wants her nails done.

"What do you need so many handbags for? You're like Imelda Marcos!" #jokefail

Need new gloves. Entrance to M&S menswear is via lingerie. I'm expecting an influx of Irish priests any minute now.

Ew. Could have done without seeing what that bloke on the tube did with his tongue in my direction.

"Woof!" Dermot finally realising that dogs make more sense than he usually does. #xfactor

Ah, here they are: The parade of those I've already forgotten, and those I wish I could. #xfactor

"It doesn't happen for everyone." And yet that montage didn't include Brookstein having a crywank, for the other side of the story. #xfactor

Memorable performances aren't Emeli Sande's thing, Dermot. Ubiquitous performances are her thing. #xfactor
8:35 PM - 9 Dec 12
To think we slagged off NBC when they edited Emeli Sande out of the #lympic opening ceremony. Turns out they were onto something #xfactor

"It's just single after single after single." WE BLOODY KNOW! #xfactor

"Amazing, the look on his face when he saw that CD cover." Yeah, he was thinking "what's a CD cover?" #xfactor #youngpeoplethesedays

Can I write the book of a musical please? I am really, really bad at coming up with stories that make sense, so I should be ideal.
11:08 PM - 10 Dec 12
I was led to believe there'd be more than just bums getting an airing, but I'll take what I can get #intervaltweets
