Given the regular appearance of the Fail Whale (above) and frustrations of many Twitter users, I was inclined to vent on the blog...
Which led me to think of the phrase "Fail Whale Wars" ...
Which led me to do some research on the group behind the controversial Animal Planet show, Whale Wars, and the group behind the action - The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society.
Thus, my Twitter frustration ("twustration?" ...I mean, everything can be turned into a Twitter word, right?) reinvents itself as something positive, right?
