The Funniest Tweets of the Week

It’s true: We didn’t do a post for the big meme of the week, the one with the girl looking at the guy looking at the other girl, so a lot of these tweets are the funniest entries into that meme canon. Like all good memes, this one is a perfect open vessel for whatever meaning you wish to impart, a fine goblet into which any beverage may be poured, from Coke to Pepsi to Diet Coke. Only a few of these tweets are eclipse tweets because we already did a whole other post for those. Same with Taylor Swift. A lot happened this week! Great week for tweets. Not really a good week otherwise. Eclipse was fun, though. I don’t know about you guys but I saw it at full capacity, which, boy howdy, you gotta do that if you can. Nothing else like it. Really puts all these meaningless tweet in perspective. No, but, great job with these meaningless tweets:

Safe to assume all of my tweets should start with “I’m sorry but” whether or not I remember to type it

Young Sheldon ads show him in a bowtie. But Adult Sheldon only wears T-shirts. I assume this is one of the mysteries the show will explore.

Taylor Swift’s new single is “Look What You Made Me Do”. So far the theory that it’s a concept album about voting for Trump holds up

I wanted “Look What You Made Me Do” to sample Little Edie saying that very line in Grey Gardens. That’s my disappointment with it.

Imagine a president so bad he takes the fun out of seeing Mitch McConnell be publicly bullied every morning in front of the whole country

You know you’ve done good comedy when you say the punchline of your closer and just hear one person say, “That’s true.”

In retrospect it’s extremely funny that people saw South Park’s bland, vaguely centrist libertarianism and thought “hell yeah…..bad ass”
