So, local douche runs over a cyclist, flees the scene. Caught by cops, is almost double the legal limit.

Story is being discussed on an ATL forum, people find driver's twitter and facebook.


Twitter is mostly 4Square check-ins at drinking establishments in Buckhead where the accident occurred.

Facebook is more of the same and lots of posts about Fat Tuesday (you'll need to log in to see this stuff)

For us ignorant types, whats 4square?

It's a (stupid, IMHO) social media site where you "check in" to places around town. Sort of like a time-dependent Yelp. Half this guy's checkins are bars and clubs in Buckhead right up to the time he ran this poor schmoe over.

I've never heard of 4square, but as a general rule, don't drive drunk, don't use the internet while drunk and don't drink if you can't follow the previous two rules.

Useful for burglarizing residences when you see they aren't home.

When I first read this, I thought you meant that you could 4square during a burglary. "Hey, at the Johnson's place, heading out though, cause I just heard a car pull up. Next stop, that dark house across the street! Holla!"

Call me crazy, but if you drive drunk and hit someone, you deserve a slightly stronger punishment than losing your license. Like, I dunno, maybe jail time? Just tossin' it out there...

Funny enough I noticed from checking his Facebook, we have a mutual friend whom I know from hanging out at a bar. I'm gonna have to ask her about him next time I see her.
