City Paper’s Rend Smith, who penned a profile of Washington Post columnist/myopic little twit hater Courtland Milloy earlier this year, reports this afternoon that the Post columnist will start using Twitter.

Sorry, I think I just drooled on my keyboard a little bit.

Smith reports that Milloy will somehow put aside his hatred of “anonymous digital relationships that give way to ubiquitous hostility disguised as conversation,” and dig his heels in:

But that Milloy has put this concern away for now, and is becoming twitterized, is good news. That’s not because it will bring any resolution to the Milloy v. Twitter slugfest, but because a more personal and animated conversation between Milloy, his detractors, and supporters is bound to be informative for everyone.

In an email, Milloy says the move is designed to meet twits on their own turf: The “myopic eyeballs that have been twittered shut to the real world will be pried open so wide they’ll need new facebooks.”

Oh, and Milloy’s thinking about taking the handle @gigabyteme, the standards of the Post be damned. Edgy!

My, this should be great fun.
