‘A big cheese wedge’: Man is overwhelmed by absurdly hilarious responses after asking how to use unconventional nook in his apartment

People on the internet love solving problems. Or at least pretending to solve problems and instead, cracking jokes. It’s like a group chat of friends that you can’t go to for real advice, because they will just clown you instead of offering real support. This, in a way, is its own form of support, though. …

40+ of the Freshest and Funniest Tweets of the Week (May 4, 2024)

Everyone’s got a take these days. I can’t walk out of the house without somebody coming up to me and saying, «Hot take, people who own houseplants are just people who want to be parents and misplaced the energy.» Or «Actually, dogs hate it when you scratch their heads. They’re wagging their tail because they’re in distress.» Or maybe I just have a weird, opinionated neighbor.  But …

40+ of the Freshest and Funniest Tweets of the Week (April 20, 2024)

It’s so fun to witness a trend cycle in its entirety. To watch a meme be born, watch it thrive, perhaps even participate in its proliferation, see its demise, and then if you stick around long enough, watch it inevitably return. To be on Twitter is to watch this unfold in real-time. If you’re lucky …

35+ of the Freshest and Funniest Tweets of the Week (April 6, 2024)

Twitter is a friend to some and an enemy to many. It used to be a hullabaloo of fun and friendship and celebrity gossip, and now it seems to be the epicenter of all annoying internet takes. I was talking to a friend recently about people who you can tell are online vs. people who …

Tweet it once, shame on you for assuming I’ll read it. Tweet it twice, shame on me for not noticing you stole it. Tweet it and delete it, shame on all of us. The tweet and delete is a tried and true tactic of cowards the world over. You want to get something off your …

45 of the Freshest and Funniest Tweets of the Week (March 2, 2024)

Twitter had been running amok recently. From the Willy Wonka experience disaster to everyone speculating where Kate Middleton is… Tweeters are having a field day and we’re back to peak internet irreverence. I love times like that when we can all gather around silly stories that don’t have much real-world implication and just riff.  Good …

Another glorious week on the haunted graveyard that is the website formerly known as Twitter. The app has gone through many iterations in its time, from its inception as a fun little way for celebrities to say how much they love tacos, to its heyday of funny accounts, to the wild wild west epitomized by …

This week on Twitter was a special one, as it usually is on that trash fire of a website. But this week the Tweeters were in full gear, galvanized by the Super Bowl. Twitter is at its best when we can all come together around a common event/piece of culture where everyone can throw their …

Explain Like I’m 35: What is Yapping? (February 4, 2024)

The entirety of social media relies on the fact that some people are physically incapable of shutting up. It’s an ecosystem sustained by diarrhea of the keyboard and/or phone camera. While many have criticized this state of affairs, it’s not until recently that we have had the meme-ready vocabulary to describe it: the online third …

Twitter, for all its flaws (and there are MANY), has become an important cornerstone of our culture. It has transformed from a stupid little app where Ryan Lochte could tweet «Rocks, paper, siccor……..» into a platform where all kinds of important geopolitical information is disseminated. That said, I do wish we had apps that were …
