IMPERFECT 10

If you’ve ever wondered why Twitter behaves so poorly, keep in mind that it only just turned 10 this week — so the nightmare years are really only just starting. But before Twitter could even blow out its candles or unwrap its Huffy, Ben Dreyfuss at Mother Jones countered that the “anniversary of the first tweet’’ doesn’t really even count as a birthday since Twitter didn’t publicly launch until July 2006. So everyone please wish Ben a happy 10th birthday too, jeeeez.

SHADY CHARACTER

A man dressed as the ostensibly hard-to-find children’s book character Waldo was quickly found (“being very disorderly’’) and removed from South Station by police last week. Later that day, young student Stanley Lambchop was flattened when an MBTA bulletin board tipped over onto him. Lambchop is in stable condition, and according to MGH officials, his adventures have only just begun!

BOAT SLIP

If the Internet gets its way, a $287 million British research ship will be christened the “R.R.S. Boaty McBoatface.’’ This, after the Natural Environment Research Council put the vessel’s name up for a vote on the Internet, and after James Hand’s modest submission distinguished itself as the clear victor, crashing the voting site with its well-deserved global popularity. Even if the name doesn’t stick (ultimately, officials can overrule the winner), Hand’s viral feat has effectively put an end to the Blanky McBlankface nicknaming convention once and for all. And for that, I salute him.

MOUNTAIN/HOUND 2016

Somehow I’ve managed to make it all the way down here without mentioning what’s-his-hair once. (High fives, me!) So before he goes and does something and I go and change my mind, let’s instead join the thousands of others enjoying this Instagram post from gargantuan “Game of Thrones’’ skullcrusher Hafthór Júlíus Björnsson (a.k.a. The Mountain), which finds him ever-so-gently cradling a puppy. Aww. That’s nice.
