Didn't you use to tweet via SMS? I assume that's still an option? Seems like a valid reason for them to have it.

I mean, at one point (GameCube/PS2/XBox era) IBM was making the chips for all 3 major consoles. I think they've been in video games for a long time.

As someone who has done quite a bit of shopping for various services, having a language-specific library ready to go is a major factor. I doubt that someone already paying you would still need one, though, so it should probably be considere

Not OP, but at the time what I personally wanted to happen was the government to bail out the customers, but not the banks themselves. Basically let the institutions implode but not let depositors foot the bill. Clearly a pipedream, though.

I think Brooklyn Nine-Nine nails physical comedy for a modern era. Andy Samberg in particular has some great moments of physical comedy in it.
