Did he actually crack stuff? Did he even need a computer for it? (Hell, did he need a computer to tweet?)

Man, I was writing a response to this and then you changed it. Hold on:

I believe that we didn't set this in stone, but my interpretation was that, like the others, the Cat lost all its powers upon crossing the wall. However, the cat made up to it by being Better At Computers than everyone else. He wasn't omnipotent, he was just damn good at google.

So yes, he actually cracked stuff.

He did need something tech-y to tweet upon.

And he's more of a...life hacker, I think. :D

I take it the powers he lost did not include the ability to speak (er... write) English?

Actually, I probably still would've followed the account if it was just a bunch of gibberish written by a cat.

Edit: Oh wait, that WAS a decent number of his tweets.

Uh...

How the hell did you manage to make me imagine a regular cat as much more awesome than an omniscient and omnipresent one!? :shock:

We are magic like that.

I always imagined him typing his tweets by dancing on the keyboard to some upbeat tune.

Given how my cats love to carry around my DS stylii in their mouths, I personally assumed he found something (a stylus, a knitting needle, a fondue fork) and used that to type.

He had a multitude of ways; he's remarkably clever.

I always figured he just... used his tail, or something. He's the Cheshire Cat, he can do whatever he darn well wants, if you ask me.

Except for getting over that blasted fence.

For me he justs sits on a chair staring at the screen. All the lights are turned off. The keyboard types itself.
And he's smiling.

That'd be pretty cool, but could he really do that?

Could he?

New headcanon: the above post, and possibly all Rick's posts, were actually typed in this very manner by Rick's cats.

My personal theory* is that he types on keyboards just by walking across them like a normal cat. The fact that any of the resulting text resembles English words is a coincidence of massive proportions.

*Not really my personal theory.

Now that's just silly.

They have thumbs. They can touch-type.

Isn't that a scientific theorem with monkeys?

Infinite monkeys + infinite time =Hamlet.

This theory has a flaw on computing time/ink costs.

Relevant to your interests:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_m ... al_monkeys

Not only did the monkeys produce nothing but five pages[12] consisting largely of the letter S, the lead male began by bashing the keyboard with a stone, and the monkeys continued by urinating and defecating on it.

And now I can't unsee a cat dancing on the keyboard to Gangnam Style. :lol:
