BF_STATIC.timequeue.push(function () );

BF_STATIC.timequeue.push(function () document.getElementById(“update_tweet_posted_time_2296347″).innerHTML = UI.dateFormat.get_formatted_date(‘Thu Jan 16 22:15:44 +0000 2014′, ‘tweet’); );

I have deleted my last tweet and would like to apologise profusely to anyone who I upset while I was asleep.

BF_STATIC.timequeue.push(function () if (bfjs.isMobile() );

BF_STATIC.timequeue.push(function () document.getElementById(“update_tweet_posted_time_2296358″).innerHTML = UI.dateFormat.get_formatted_date(‘Thu Jan 16 21:26:56 +0000 2014′, ‘tweet’); );
