The Day The Laughter Died

The threat of a visit by Luke Schenn to 'negotiate terms of surrender' Down Goes Brown has taken the Costanza route and is leaving on top. He'll leave the twitter account up so that you can read it over and over again and complain that there isn't anything as good on the internet anymore.

Anything that lets us grumble about how much better things were ‘back in the day’….

It seems like only yesterday that there were decent parody twitter feeds.

If only you had started a parody twitter feed back in November.

Should have stopped the fake account in November…

The sad thing is, I’m going to keep visiting it in the hope that there are new updates when I do.

Hm… if I just send direct messages to every person following me, the real Burke would never know…

I’m not talking to you any more.

But if I was, I’d tell you that I’m not on Twitter anyway.

Wait, you’re the guy who called me George Lucas.

Does this mean you’re not buying the “fake Brian Burke” Burger King promotional glasses?

Nor am I buying 27 different special edition Fake Brian Burke DVD boxsets, either.

Anyway, I didn’t call you George Lucas. I said that your decision to stop fake BB disappointed me as much as George Lucas did with Indy IV.

That’s full-on desolation tinged with thoughts of homicide, btw.

That’s how much fake BB meant to me. He was like a brother, I tell you. Now I’m going to have to go back to my invisible friend, Milko the Wonder Sheep. It’s a poor alternative.
