A little help for Tila Tequila
Tila Tequila signs autographs in 2007. (Jim Graham for The Washington Post)
As of this writing, Tila Tequila, in what may be a massive stroke of luck for her (and us), has only been able to tweet three times in the last 10 hours. Now, for the Twitter-averse, that may sound like three times too many, but keep in mind that Tequila's usual pace is usually more like three times per minute.
Apparently, she's suffered some kind of connectivity glitch:
"I'm soooo mad! I haven't had internet fir one full day! Its driving me NUTS!!! I even bought a internet stick but doesn't work! WTF!"
It must be bad if even an "internet stick" didn't help. Maybe she should pull out the big guns and go for Internet stones or some kind of Internets wizard?
In any case, since Tila's got some extra time on her hands, I thought we could all put on our thinking caps and come up with some creative and constructive ways for her to use the time that would normally be spent tweeting.
I'll start:
1. Hire a new publicist. Since your last rep quit amidst your overwrought Casey Johnson "mourning," you're floating around without protection.
2. Take a vow of silence -- which will also apply to Twitter. Sure, this may limit your direct exposure with the public, but we'll, umm, be waiting for you!
Add your suggestions for Tila below. At the end of the day, we'll send them to her -- via Twitter, of course.

3. Find your original rock & crawl back under it.

The internet stick is making me think of Tila walking around her house with a divination rod trying to find a Wi-Fi hot spot.

"fir". Not "for". I could even, grudgingly, accept "4" to allow for Twitter's character limitation. I could do "fir" if she was making a point by speaking in dialect. But she isn't, and it's "fir". No. I'm sorry, but no. At that point, I don't even care about content because my eyes are bleeding from the heinous misuse of English.
What she needs is a filter on her Twitter. This filter would correct all spelling and grammar errors, and then delete them.

One of the perils of reading things quickly is that sometimes you get your hopes up.
For instance, the first words I saw in the first sentence were "Tila Tequila" and "massive stroke."

Perhaps some brave hackers are suppressing her WiFi? I salute you, noble nerds!
As far as Tila, maybe she could use this time to meditate on where she wants to be in twenty years. "Becoming the new Joan Rivers" should not be the GOOD option.

Isn't California in the midst of a series of cataclysmic rainstorms? Perhaps the one, functioning AT&T cell tower slid down a mountainside in a cascade of mud.
Perhaps Tila will be next.

Tell Tia that the only proper way for her to key in a tweet is with her labia majora.

Everyone always kinda assumed that machine awareness would start with Skynet or some other defense system. Who knew that it would really begin when the Internet decided it simply was tired of Tila Tequila?

Delete the errors or the entire post?
I vote for the entire post option

Twitter? Is that what you crazy kids are calling it nowadays?

Tila's To Do List:
Search the personals for single heiress.
Buy a copy of Heincer's book because not enough people know who I am.
See if that guy Chuck will come over and fix my computer. (Ask him to bring his girlfriend).
Take babysitter CPR class so wifey Casey's family will know I'm serious.
