From Musk-ow to Meta to Maine to Madagascar, the world changed forever when the letter X recently replaced the blue Twitter bird.
Well, it’s an improvement, sort of. Shows the world is getting smarter. We’re moving up from pictures to letters. Then maybe one day guttural sounds and then words.
And then maybe in the future we can finally have the kind of society where the sheep inhabitants understand the OBVIOUS difference between a .23% infection fatality rate and “Ermagosh! We’s all gunna die!”
Anyway, that azure avian logo will be missed.
We here at ClownWorld Shakespeare can’t get enough of our feathered friends: whether it’s watching a murder of crows as they traverse a hazy sky or waking to the sound of chirping baby starlings or dressing up like beloved kids character Big Bird™ to scam unsuspecting families out of their hard-earned vacation cash!
I even nursed a bird back to health, or at least once tried to. It died, and I went out for a chicken dinner afterwards. I was starving. Bird health care is hard work!
So without further delay, in honor of the death of the most famous e-bird (or is it i-bird?), we present the very first ClownWorld Shakespeare Olde Wyrlde NFT (Nice Freakin’ Token) Extravaganzaaaaaaa!
This year’s theme is: “I’ll have a side of wings!”
The bidding starts now…
NFT #1 - Who do you see? Well, there’s a rendering of the Sultan of Sonnet himself. (No, not me. I’m more of an Assistant to the Assistant Sultan of Sonnet at this point.) Hint: he’s the bloke wearing a party hat. There are three “birds” mixed in with that large colorful group of famous app-fighting fowls. Can you name them? One is fictional. One is exceptional. One is criminal.
NFT #2 – If anyone needs an explanation here, let me say: for the love of God, would you take off that surgical mask when you’re driving…alone…with your windows rolled up…blabbing on your cellphone? Because really, the only folks who need words to go along with NFT #2 are the (shakes head) chowderheads still wearing a mask while driving solitary.
NFT #3: “Being online 24/7 has ****ed us all.”
