Brevity by Dan Thompson for January 30, 2014

Spinners….mmmm, yeah.

The sheep-to-shawl folks brought their own wheels.

So, you need to put the right spin on your spinning competition?

??? Don’t get it.

Dear TheDoctor, spinning is a form of exercise done on a stationary bicycle. As well as a restated version of “facts”. It’s a play on the two meanings and a serious dig at Tyler Perry.

I’m all for anyone who wants to throw shade at Tyler Perry. That dude totally freaks me out.

Mr. Thompson, how many things have you done in the past 24 hours that required hydrocarbons? Don’t bite the hand that feeds you. I’m sure you can find other, deserving targets.

I’m am as much of an “un-fan” of Tyler Perry as anyone, so I am fine with anyone getting a dig on him, but I am uncertain how “spin” applies here. (I understand the meaning of “spin” regarding lobbyists and PR folk, just not how it applies to the guy who gave Tyler Perry his first break )

mattlohr: I think we got the idea what spinning is, but a good example anyway. Hydrocarbons can be obtained from many sources without poisoning the planet, and even doing without them.

No such competition…

Is Tyler Perry the Madea chick?

The discussion wasn’t as fun as normal on this one. I sensed a political explosion coming any minute. GLAD it didn’t come to fruition.
