CHRISTOPHER WALKEN NEVER TWITTERED

... But someone did it for him.



Not anymore.

Twitter, which has been shutting down fake Twitter accounts (which is to say, accounts claiming to be famous people but really aren’t, kinda like the Fake Steve Jobs site), finally got around to shutting down the Fake Christopher Walken Twitter site.

That’s a damn shame.  It was one of the funniest things on Twitter.

More sample entries:

"Secretary of Ironic Scarves." I don't know if Obama read my letter but I hope so. Ashton Kutcher deserves this. So does California.

I don’t remember saying that the geese had eaten all of the kittens in Central Park. No matter. She’s upset and the geese are very confused.

She wanted to go to the zoo but she knows I'm not comfortable there. Animals can smell that too. Animals with noses I mean. Like bears.

There's a kid on a Pogo stick in front of my house. It's nearly midnight so let's assume he's been drinking. This should end well for him.

The neighbor's cat is back at the window looking in at me. I wonder how he would describe this to other cats. If he wanted to, I mean.

I figured from the get-go that Christopher Walken wasn’t really writing these. But it was funny to imagine that he was. It’s a genius concept, and one that really shows the value of Twitter as an entertainment medium.

And Twitter went and killed it.

Thanks, Twitter.

Bring back the cowbell,

This is dF
