While You Were Sleeping, Jay-Z Tweeted For Five Hours Straight

Well, to be accurate, it ended up being closer to seven. "Ok that was my yearly allotment see ya'll 2014", he said.

Jay-Z’s been up all night tweeting at people

To help promote his freshly-launched new album Magna Carta Holy Grail, Jay-Z took to Twitter overnight to mix with the masses. He’s been replying to tweets for, like, over five hours now, which obviously means he’s stuck at home taking care of Blue Ivy while Beyonce’s off having a girls’ night out with Solange and Kim Kardashian or something.

It’s been an entertaining session. Did you know about Jay-Z’s discomfort at using ‘LOL’? He replies to every joke with ‘#mylaugh’, which is so awesome:

Laugh

He also hit back his famous friends:

Aziz

Oh, and even some locals got some RT love:

Dools

The conversation’s still going on! Ask Jay-Z whatever you want here, and await his oddly bracketed answers. He’s never gonna get to bed.

Don’t expect to see Troy on the next season of Community

Well, not much of him, anyway. Just as you were getting excited over the glorious possibilities in store for the show’s upcoming season now that that series creator Dan Harmon is returning to the fold, comes this poo-poo platter of a reality check: Donald Glover, aka lovable Troy Barnes, has announced that he’ll be appearing in just five episodes of the 13-episode season so he can concentrate on his Childish Gambino work. Geez, when will this guy understand: NO ONE GIVES A S**T ABOUT CHILDISH GAMBINO! Just do more raps with Abed!

Someone went and made a new Chucky movie

Well, it was actually series creator Don Mancini, the guy who’s written all of them to date. The new film, titled Curse Of Chucky, heads back to the ’90s to follow the events of Child’s Play 3, completely ignoring the existence of Bride Of Chucky (1998) and Seed Of Chucky (2004), because, well, who knows why.

The movie’s getting a DVD release just in time for your late October Halloween parties, but here’s the enjoyable new trailer, which will have you peeking through your fingers and yelling things like, “Oh, come on, lady; don’t stick your finger  right in Chucky’s lips, for chrissakes!”

Hey kids, maybe don’t tweet about blowing up Rod Laver Arena in the middle of a Pink concert, okay?

Cops revealed overnight that a 16-year-old Warrnambool boy was arrested during Pink’s concert in Melbourne on Sunday night, after tweeting “@Pink I’m ready with my Bomb. Time to blowup #RodLaverArena Bitch”.

According to his family, it was all just a big misunderstanding and he was actually just making a request for the Pink song ‘Timebomb’, which is a pretty clever excuse. But our favourite bit of this whole story is  this: The boy’s sister claimed that security staff approached her brother just ten minutes into the gig, with a picture of his twitter photo and asked if it was him.

“He thought he’d won something,” she said. “He didn’t deny it was him… Then seven people just jumped on him.”

Oh s**t, worst prize ever!
