    To native-born Japanese, the California-roll is an anomaly. Because there is "nori" inside the roll! But, this is very good!! #artwiculate

    @artwiculate as of late, it appears that there have been 2 noteable phantom WOTDs: Lollop & Demesne. Will this be a repeating anomaly ?

    If a man pees on an electric fence once, it’s an anomaly. If he pees on an electric fence more than once, it’s an aberration.

    This tweet is an anomaly because I have decided not to enter @artwiculate today. It is also a paradox.

    To be an artwiculator I must be batty. If I am batty, I am not a birdie. If I am not a birdie, I am a tweeting anomaly.

    I don't like anomaly. I'd rather pastiche. Or even lagniappe. Or Litany, Machiavellian, Malinger, Mercenary, Mirth, Ogle. Anomaly is out.
