DC Public Library versus DC Water

[Under Construction: So I actually just started working on reconstructing what had been a Storify "story" in December 2018, when I went to reshare it and saw that the site was no more. But I thought it worth posting so you can see how far I've gotten, so far. Hoping to have it finished and reconstructed by the time 2019 starts.]

So...this happened Twitter today...

Prologue

Shout out to whoever is running the @dcpl account.

@mstharrington @dcpl YES! It's even better than @dcwater! Which has, frankly, been resting on their laurels recently.

@dcwater @mstharrington meh. You can almost see Wendy jumping the shark. @dcpl is where it's at now.

@dcwater @timkrepp @mstharrington @dcpl I kept waiting for the splash! Is that suit a PFD?

— Mark Bjorge (@MarkBjorge) May 29, 2015

@MarkBjorge @dcwater @mstharrington @dcpl good question. Does Wendy float?

— ButTimKrepp (@timkrepp) May 29, 2015

@timkrepp @MarkBjorge @mstharrington @dcpl How can a water drop float?

— DC Public Library (@dcpl) May 29, 2015

@dcpl @dcwater @timkrepp DEAD.

Chapter 3: Revenge of the Drop 

Word of the Day: Comeuppance.

Definition: What @dcpl gets when they try us.

@dcpl Would love to know what the search term was for that GIF.

— DC Water (@dcwater) May 29, 2015

.@dcwater Oh, we made it. Because librarians:
1. Know how to find what you need and
2. Make it if we don't have it. :)

— DC Public Library (@dcpl) May 29, 2015

.@dcwater We also may have maxed out on our daily allowance of tweeted gifs.

— DC Public Library (@dcpl) May 29, 2015

@dcpl No such thing

Interlude Part 1: A New Mention

The ongoing rivalry between @dcpl & @dcwater is the stuff that dreams are made of. Reminds me of the ancient feud between @dcra & @DDOTDC.

— Helder Gil (@hgil) May 29, 2015

@hgil @dcra & @DDOTDC was an excellent feud.

— Pirate Queen Kate 🏴‍☠️ (@PirateQueenKate) May 29, 2015

@PirateQueenKate @hgil @dcra Ahem....you all just need to move on.
