For 🇺🇸’s 250th birthday, I threw together a little 25-question quiz based on the number 250. Answers at the end of the tweet thread. Just for fun. Here we go:

@leebowski1223 Best movie theme ever made?

When people ask me my favorite song, period, I say “Superman Theme 1978.” Full stop.

@FFGuillotine @AlamaBoma @kevinnbass Hey anonymous:

There were no non-Polynesians living in Polynesia 1000 years ago (when Moana is set). Established fact.

The Aegean and the Levant was the crossroads of all Euro-Asia-African cultures

“So make them” Google before tweeting ignorant shit

[Daniel Smith-Rowsey @smithrowsey]

@MockingJay_IL @TheRickWilson That’s not even close to horseshoe theory

You could easily google before tweeting, but it’s when a position is embraced by both the far left and the far right. Vaccine skepticism is often cited, along with other aspects of survivalism bunker-style living

@KatieMiller @JoeBiden Last time anyone noticed you tweet, it was the day after Maduro was captured, you decided to post a 🇺🇸-covered Greenland with “NEXT,” basically destroying 8 decades of middle-class 🇺🇸n prosperity and power

Must be nice going to bed knowing you’ll be remembered as Nero or worse

[Daniel Smith-Rowsey @smithrowsey]

@kenchurchill4 @Amy_Siskind You sound like a very consistent person who would be happy to support any Democrat-led “destruction of the old, corrupt globalist system” that involved destroying federal property without a whiff of consultation of Congress

[Daniel Smith-Rowsey @smithrowsey]

@IvanG006 @SceneinCinema “The Waterdance” with Helen Hunt and Eric Stoltz is a good example of a fairly necessary sex scene in the context of the story

@Jimgymgem12345 @Mollyploofkins “I use two different aliases to defend a man who has never done and will never do shit for me”

[Daniel Smith-Rowsey @smithrowsey]

@TheCinesthetic

[Daniel Smith-Rowsey @smithrowsey]

@Wesleymooch @ABC “My fake name is newtonbomb, my other fake name is wesleymooch, I pay eight bucks a month to defend a man who wouldn’t piss on me if I were on fire. Yayyyyyy”

[Daniel Smith-Rowsey @smithrowsey]

@AwardsWatchErik As long as you’re correcting, I believe you’re giving the numbers of BWP and PA when they were shopped to distributors.

Paying audiences never saw those films. They saw them after costly sound remixing

Actual budget numbers are higher than yours, lower than Complex’s

[Daniel Smith-Rowsey @smithrowsey]

@JesseKellyDC A million 🇺🇸 s died out of 320 million

1/320 does not equal .1

Try doing your math again with less hysteria

And don’t tell me they (actually 1.2 million) didn’t die of Covid without telling me where those million excess deaths came from, compared to previous years

[Daniel Smith-Rowsey @smithrowsey]

@Think0909 @EuroWynner During the 30 times you typed “Trump” you were missing something

He said all DJT had to do was nothing, and he could’ve honestly later boasted of a major accomplishment in hosting these games

You could have similarly done nothing and won Twitter today. But you chose to lose

@swd2 “End wokeness” and the other RWs hate sports, period.

Any time they post their usual “who wanted to add migrants to this” BS I ask who’s your favorite sports team?

They never answer, they don’t have one, if they did, they’d have to answer why they root for Doncic, Ohtani, etc

@CinemaTweets1 I also like the sword fight on the massive wheel

[Daniel Smith-Rowsey @smithrowsey]

@ishaantharoor @MollyJongFast MAGA doesn’t believe in equal rights under the law, or they believe it no longer exists

They believe it’s screw or be screwed and would be happy to commit any crime they could get away with

So they cheer when DJT does it, even if it doesn’t directly help them

[Daniel Smith-Rowsey @smithrowsey]

@avenuecre @BradfemlyWalsh It’s almost always the other way around. The Harry Potter kids, really the cast of any show set in high school (I think you know some of them), the teen characters are being played by actors who are older

Just a weird flex

[Daniel Smith-Rowsey @smithrowsey]

…
24. Orion
25. Batman (DC Comics #250, 1957, before Superman’s Action Comics #250, 1959)

That’s all!

May (and July) The Fourth of a Millennium Be With You 🇺🇸🎉
