Travel: #TheMysteriesOfSocialMedia [Day XLII]

The office is very excited today: #DanaFox is trending on Twitter.

Also: Dire news.  A plot point depends on a cardboard pastry insert, but the gas-station Hostess Cupcakes of the script come in a tray, according to the serious-voiced man around a corner.  Not in a little cardboard tube.  A tray.  Things are going to have to change.  Someone says Twinkies come with a cardboard edge.  Don't you think Twinkies would be funny?  Yeah, yeah, totally.  I had a teacher in high school and he had a plate of Twinkies that looked exactly the same after nine years.  I'll have my graphics people come up with a Twinkie thing just in case, because everyone has that perception that Twinkies last forever.

Crisis averted.

But wait, more concerns!  In the flashback, do we need Lisa Frank, or will Trapper Keeper do?  Maybe Dana will find the Trapper Keeper too loud.  But that would be awesome.  It's on E-Bay now for like, seventy five bucks.  One of the other staffers speaks up.  Oh my gosh, I have like ten of those at my mom's house.  She is ordered to take pictures and e-mail them.  They think Lisa Frank is more character-appropriate.

It's the little things that kill!

Notes from Katie's desk.
It is really weird to be surrounded by coworkers who are not your coworkers.

Cheers

  1. Hostess Cupcakes are much better than Twinkies. They used to come on a small white cardboard 'tray', but for some time have come in plastic cups instead.

    But Twinkies are intrinsically funny, from the name alone..
