August 15, 2009

BRETT: So she's "hidden" me. But I'll still see her and all her friends in my feed.
THE CLOUD: Well, I can unfriend them.
BRETT: NO! I don't want her to think I'm GIVING UP on her!
THE CLOUD: Of course, then I can just HIDE them.
BRETT: Well, but I want to keep tabs on them... though not her GUY friends.
THE CLOUD: I... suppose I could create a LIST that-
BRETT: While you're at it, hide her stupid KICKBALL TEAM pictures!
THE CLOUD: OK, um... now do you have Greasemonkey installed?

#248. Catsitting web history

August 16, 2009

BRETT: So now that you're dating her, has she... told you stuff about me?
THE CLOUD: No. But I have access to her Web history while you were catsitting for her.
THE CLOUD: It paints an odd picture. You spent all your time at two sites: McSweeneys.com and "Big Tits At School".
BRETT: HEY... I went to that second one IRONICALLY.
BRETT: At FIRST...
THE CLOUD: Interestingly, you alt-tabbed between the two a LOT...
