Yes, we all love books here. In fact, you should probably be reading one instead of this website, but come on. You’re on the toilet or the subway right now. That’s no time for mind-expanding fiction.
Sometimes, you want to unwind with a few funny short jokes. Thankfully, that’s really all anyone is posting on Twitter these days (unless you count all the un-Democratic misinformation. There’s always room for that on social media.).
Not everyone is built to write the next great American novel. Some people like to fit their genius ideas into a tweet under 240 characters. That’s good for everyone. We don’t always have the attention span for a long, drawn-out essay about our first sexual experience or a reflection on the pervasive ennui that affects all novelists. None of these people have the attention span to write anything longer, I promise you.
Unless we’re counting a half-hour comedy spec script. Many of the people below have a ton of those. For now, let’s read the funny tweets that deserve a Pulitzer.
Here are the funniest tweets I had time to find this week:

FYI I am CLOSED to queries through the new year. (i'm not an agent. I just don't want anyone to ask me questions)

This awkward week between Christmas and New Years has a Purge-like quality. I am maintaining a pretext of “working” but it very much feels like there are no laws, no rules, and nothing that happens now can be used against us later. Time to confess your secret love and rob a bank.

Hot yoga is for psychopaths. It’s just like walking into acupuncture and saying “please use knives so I can really feel it”

Who are you trying to fool, books that have Roman numeral pages before the regular numbered pages start?

Would like to share the best New Years resolution I have ever heard, which is “I want to be in good enough shape that when I sit down or get up from sitting down I do not make any noises with my mouth about it”

Why can’t the government get tests out in the communities? They distributed crack way quicker than this.

Whenever I hear an ad say "find it wherever books are sold" I think that the advertiser doesn't know what a bookstore is.

My son put some Trix in his ant farm. Instead of eating them, the ants dug up all of the dead ants in the farm and piled them on top of the Trix. Not sure what that means but I’m not eating Trix anymore.

If you see a beer on tap in NYC named after the bar itself, buddy, you’re about to drink a $7 Pabst.

I decided to buy bubbles for a NYE toast in the interest of optimism. I asked the shop owner for a medium fancy champagne and she recommended one and as she was ringing it up said “This was the official champagne of the Titanic so it’s perfect for this year.” Oh well I tried.
