The Funniest Tweets of the Week
Photo via Getty ImagesI will let you all in on a little secret. Every week, as you know, I compile these lists of the funniest tweets of the week. But what you do not know is that from every list I select one tweet, the funniest of the funniest tweets, and copy it into a separate document. In this document are all the funniest tweets from every list I have ever compiled, going all the way back to, I don’t know, 2016 or whenever. And one day, maybe in the near future, maybe in the distant future, I will post all of these tweets in a grand list to end all lists. And it will be called The Funniest Tweets of the Funniest Tweets of the Week. And then I will finally be free.
tragedy + time = tragedy time

I’m grateful for twitter because I remember what it was like in the 80s. If you had insomnia you had to write out your opinions on hundreds of 3×5 cards & then go around the neighborhood in the middle of the night handing them out.

My only complaint about Nanette is that Hannah Gadsby explained to the general public what a callback is. They know now, they know. And we will never get that genie back in its bottle.

The truest onscreen portrayal of a career in publishing was Elaine Benes’, a rising star editor who lost her job when the publisher folded, became personal assistant to a rich guy, got a new job as a copywriter for a clothing catalogue, briefly became CEO, then ended up in prison
