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:

Rich teens on TV are always talking about how rich they are but I went to private school with lots of rich teens and they don’t do that. They say something like “oh we have a little place at the beach” and then you go and it’s a 20 bedroom mansion that Chef Boyardee used to own

Baffling that people who believe in intelligent design also believe God made a whoopsie and had to drown everyone and start over.

One of my greatest joys in life is when Jeff calls the vet to make an appointment and they ask for his name, and he says, Jeff. Then, they ask for our cat's name, and I watch him gather his strength before he tells them, Baby Jeff.

Once I was in an elevator w/ 5 strangers & a lady ran up at the last second. Instead of helping her, we all watched the doors close. I said, "Good. I never liked her" to what I thought would be big laughs. Nope. As I rode 10 floors in thick silence, they shut me out even harder

One of my favorite lies to tell myself is that a blueberry muffin is substantially more nutritious than a chocolate chip muffin.

She had an hourglass figure, in that sand was constantly going through it & it reminded you of mortality. Her doctors kept insisting, stop eating all this sand, you’re going to die

Me, 364 days of the year: “taxes are fine because they fund important programs”
Me, the 1 day a year when I find out how much I owe because I’m a freelancer: “taxation is theft”
