1639359905671831573 | @andrewhunterm Agreed. That’s a bit rude. By the way, has your latest edition of the Association of Lighthouse Keepers’ Newsletter arrived yet? | 1 |
1639739259241340930 | @andrewhunterm @nmelzack @nosuchthing Club Fish member here on Apple. No issues to report, and I have at least one episode on at bedtime. | 0 |
1637927674382364674 | @andrewhunterm Defuse it! | 0 |
1637928060719702016 | @andrewhunterm What about those clocks where the second hand glides round? Do they count as ticking? | 0 |
1637927936689831943 | @andrewhunterm I use sand times or water clocks on my time bombs. Sometimes candle clocks. I tried a sundial once but that was terrible, never again. | 0 |
1637927890879651841 | @andrewhunterm At least at the end of these comments you’ll be able to be relieved that you didn’t overthink it after all. If anything, quite the opposite. | 0 |
1637927883481001985 | @andrewhunterm Delicious irony of what your tweet became. | 0 |
1637927866120765441 | @andrewhunterm Don't get me started on "pre-warn"... | 0 |
1637927832138444801 | @andrewhunterm At least it stops ticking once it explodes. | 0 |
1637927613737107456 | @andrewhunterm I will join the campaign to change this to “activated time bomb.” Right after we’ve stopped people saying “wait, rewind” and started them saying “wait, go to a previous time stamp.” | 0 |

1637927098131046400 | @andrewhunterm Where do the 'tocks' go from a 'ticking time-bomb'? Why isn't it a 'tick-tocking time-bomb'? Is there a villain's lair somewhere full to the brim with 'tocking time-bombs'? | 18 |
1639542961854640130 | @andrewhunterm @The_Fence_Mag @hattiehattie So good! | 10 |
1637880139970125832 | @andrewhunterm At least he is differentiating you from the old people. I’d take that as a big plus. | 6 |
1637930293553254400 | @andrewhunterm I assumed it would be a time bomb made of a nice striped cotton. | 5 |
1639424286422179842 | @JamesHarkin @andrewhunterm You not got it yet? It was posted with Matchbox Collectors Monthly and Varnish Today. | 5 |
1637937134614061056 | @andrewhunterm "This thing is a ticking time bomb!" "You mean dangerous? Volatile?" "No, I mean archaic and obsolete." | 4 |
