The Funniest Tweets of the Week
Photo by Drew Angerer/GettyLast week began with a congressional candidate revealing her white supremacist opponent’s interest in Bigfoot porn; it ended with Donald Trump pretty much implicating Don Jr. in collusion. And boy, all sorts of great stuff happened in between: MoviePass imploded, Marc Maron confirmed that he’s gonna be in the Joaquin Phoenix Joker movie, the right went after Sarah Jeong and the Times did a mealy-mouthed job defending her, Russia made Steven Seagal some sort of envoy to the US, Nazis had a rally in Portland and it became August. Wow! As for me, I flew on a plane to New York City and saw some improv. Cool! Yeah. Okay, here:
lol Trump described Don Jr with the same adjective he used for turkeys, being at the scene of a mass shooting, and a guy he fired on the toilet pic.twitter.com/OU4TFcgoaZ

The third time you eat at a restaurant is so important. They ask “steak and cheese sub, right,” smiling. That’s when you need to decide whether you’ll ever order anything else

My fave part of The Usual Suspects is when the detective realizes the names and details from the story match up with things in his office & is blown away by the coincidence of it all— the symmetry of God’s universe. This helps ease the pain of never knowing who Keyser Soze was.

Used to hate the garlic press because it was hard to clean but today I realized it’s really easy if I just clean it right after I use it. I was the problem
