Twitter was created for certain things, and one of those things occured last week. If you missed the twitter fracas centered on 30-50 feral hogs last week, catch up. It was good.

stages of Feral Hog Twitter
1. confusion seeing everyone tweet “30 to 50 feral hogs”
2. find the tweet & assume it’s satire
3. read the tweet again & realize it’s for real
4. like and RT only feral hog tweets for 12 hrs straight
5. become 30 to 50 feral hogs

In related news, at the end of July the Joseph Smith Papers added new content including:

• Nauvoo City Council rules of order
• A marriage ordinance
• And an unruly swine petition

I would like to suggest that the #twitterstake #twitterstorians missed a significant opportunity with a Nauvoo-era Mormon equivalent–unruly swine. This was a real thing for 19 whole people in 1842.

I really wanted one of those people to be one of my relatives. Alas.
