Twitter in Focus: Maria Bamford
on November 7, 2012 at 12:01 amHey Bros!
Welcome to Twitter in Focus where media comes to die. Today’s contestant is a very funny comedian. I’ve seen her a lot on Comedy Central and she used to be in a very weird Target commercial. Let’s see if her tweets are just as weird.
October 13th: “From my manager Bruce 2u:”Little piece on mb in @PasadenaMag…click here to take a look: http://www.omnipop.com/artists/artist58/_PR1_Pasadena%20Magazine_Oct%202012_MB.PDF …. Great pictures too!” ”
Nice gams, Maria!
October 15th: “San Francisco corn cobs, come to Cobbs this Wed/Thurs. it’s good to go outside. It’s fun and lots of other corn cobs will be there. Corncob.”
That’s uh…what?
October 17th: “I will get back to you with my decision, but thank you for bringing this matter to my attention. “@kevinstownsend http://screencrush.com/pugs-halloween/ ” ”
That’s far too early for Halloween, but I have to give the dogs credit for at least getting the correct month.
October 20th: “Hey “Halloween Capital of the World”: Don’t bar anti-bullying gay kids group from your Halloween parade! https://www.change.org/petitions/hey-halloween-capital-of-the-world-don-t-bar-anti-bullying-gay-kids-group-from-your-halloween-parade?share_id=kbtrmrYSXr&utm_campaign=action_box&utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=share_petition&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=twitter … via @change”
Yeah, they’ll be in disguise anyway.
October 23rd: “Tomorrow night I’m in Marina del Rey, for the @Marriott & @WIREDInsider #Culturazzi Series with @FunnyOrDie ! http://culturazziseries.splashthat.com”
Comedians do a LOT of shows. Gotta love being on the road, I guess.
October 23rd: “Upcoming Dates!!!! First week of November in Toronto: http://comedybar.ca/calendar.php , and 11/9&10 at Flappers in Burbank: http://www.h2f.net/h2fnew/index.php …”
I don’t know if I could live in a hotel that long. Oh, wait, I did it for comic book conventions. No, I can’t. It sucked.
October 23rd: “I almost lost my mother in a sweater once. In 2013, I will only go to Scottsdale on the one-stop No Bullshit Tour. pic.twitter.com/X9gj6DQE”
Definitely a high level of insanity going on in these tweets.
October 25th: “No Target ads this year, but a small part in Arrested Development! When God closes a door, I still have a hard time believing in God! : )!!! ”
Ba-dum-dum! Keesh!
October 30th: “TORONTO! SHOWS ADDED THURSDAY AT 10 30 PM! 10:30 pm! on a thursday! http://www.thestar.com/entertainment/onstage/article/1277445–maria-bamford-s-sweetness-and-dark-in-toronto-for-comedy-fest …”
Go see Maria. Coming to a town near you.
Okay, let’s rate Maria’s tweets. Definitely sounds like Maria is tweeting on her phone in between walking to and from her many, many gigs. That’s a 7 for Style, 7 for Mustness and a 10 for Insanity. That’s an overall score of 8. Maria is fun. Follow her tweets, bros.
