Top 10 Twitter Moments of the Year (2023)

Twitter memes come and go so quickly. We laugh and hoot and holler at a «Twitter main character» for approximately 48 hours and proceed to forget they ever existed. Well, I don’t want to forget!

Not all friendships are built on a good-faith foundation. You could be in a friendship with somebody for years just to realize that they have resented you virtually the whole time.
