    I think "You're a human battery" is actually a pretty apt putdown here.

    In fact I could stand about 25% more Matrix references in general. #matthewweiner

    We should start doing a Mad Men live blog here, just to piss off Weiner. #matthewweiner

    @mattchew03: I am so in. I'd like to open with how much I hate that insipid teacher and then throw in a plea for Joan to get about 300% the screen time. Consider Weiner slighted. #matthewweiner

    @DahlELama: Oh man, me too (on the teacher). But just like Don, now that I've finally figured out who she reminds me of I have these conflicting emotions. Does anybody else think she looks like a young Geraldine Chaplin (whom I adore, Home For The Holidays, anyone?). Excuse me, teach, but you say everything's cool now, but it won't be later. Promise.

    Somewhat similar was Neko Case's observation that so many people mediate their concert experiences by taking photos/video the whole time. On the one hand it is cool to see something on YouTube that happened on the other side of the world, on the other isn't the person doing the recording missing being totally in the moment during his/her concert experience? #matthewweiner

    @Recently Newly Redundant: I agree completely. I once argued with a friend who took hundreds of pictures of every event we went to, because I felt he was missing out, seeing everything thru a lens. #matthewweiner

    @SleeplessNights: Steve Zaillian is receiving their Distinguished Screenwriter Award this year, and Michael Keaton is presenting the Distinguished Filmmaker Award to...Ron Howard (!!!) for 2009. I cannot effing wait.

    You're not allowed to watch the show anymore.
    And then Weiner sent the software guy up to his bedroom to watch network television, without dessert. #matthewweiner
