Shirt happens: Twitterers try to make sense of Major Garrett’s shirty business
http://twitter.com/#!/jimgeraghty/status/301008143301885952
Major Garrett is upset about something. Like, really upset. We caught him lobbing F-bombs at someone about “shirty business.” Now, he claims the profanity-laced tweet was the product of a slow pre-State-of-the-Union Monday, but he still hasn’t clarified what he meant by “shirty business.” Thankfully, Twitterers are all over it:
The day will come when I will misfire a DM and it will be shirty business indeed.

Right now, I imagine Garrett just gave a certain dealer in shirty business an extra Godfather smack. “And *that* is for the Tweet!”
