WHAT THE HELL

Kevin Brennan Writes About What It's Like

It’s almost time to tweet like Werner Herzog!

If you’re like me, you love Werner Herzog.

And if you’re like me, you love @WernerTwertzog even more!

See, @WernerTwertzog tweets like Werner Herzog would tweet if he tweeted. He tweets things like: “It is important for fitted sheets to slip off the mattress to make us despair of ever finding true rest in this life.”

Or: “First, they came for the Nihilists, and I did nothing.”

Or: “Dear America: You are waking up, as Germany once did, to the awareness that 1/3 of your people would kill another 1/3, while 1/3 watches.”

Well, September 5th is Hertzog’s annual “Tweet Like Werner Herzog” Day, and I already have a bunch lined up.

Here’s one: “Life is a series of grotesque ironies interrupted only by the awareness that all pleasure is illusion. Laugh clown laugh. #Twertzog”

It’s fun, but, like everything in this life, entirely pointless. Join me, won’t you?

Use the hashtag #Twertzog and tweet like Werner Hertzog on September 5th!

Here’s a little post I ran about Werner a few years back to whet your whistle.
