For the first time in many, many years, I skipped watching the Oscars last night in favor of playing The Sims 3. (I have a problem right now and I don’t wanna talk about it.) Based on the reports of its poor viewership numbers, I wasn’t the only one to ditch it in favor of other, more pixelated pursuits. One famous person who decided not to waste four hours listening to bad jokes and staring at a hideous stage was Macaulay Culkin. Culkin announced a day before the ceremony that he would be live-tweeting, but not watching, the Academy Awards.

It was wonderful.

You know how the first person that shows up at a party is totally lame?

I'm betting you Dustin Diamond is the first person on the red carpet tonight.

#Oscars PREDICTIONS:
Best Cinematography: 37 years in film and I'm still not sure what a "cinematography" is.

Ladybird is my favorite episode of Roseanne since Laurie Metcalf smoked a joint in the bathtub #StashFromThePast #Oscars90

When I get thirsty from a hard night of Oscar tweeting, I reach for a refreshing Dr. Pepper. Or I would if I HAD ONE.

(I would also accept Hawaiian Punch.)

Actually, the best original score of the year was New England 33 - Philadelphia 41 #Oscars
