If you're craving a dose of humor but want to avoid the treacherous landscape of Twitter, we totally understand. These days, navigating the bird app can be exhausting, especially when it feels like pain and suffering are constantly being forced upon us. That's why we've put together a collection of short and sweet tweets that will tickle your funny bone without any of the unnecessary noise. It's a refreshing break from the world's troubles, and sometimes inspires us to work on our own jokes. Wi…

I'm happy that I was lucky enough to enjoy the freedom of a long weekend . After all, a long weekend also means a short workweek. Which, to be frank, is how every week should be: four days long. While many progressive companies are adopting the four-day workweek as a means of improving the work-life balance of their employees, not everyone is fortunate to work for a company that prioritizes their workers. For the rest of us, these weeks are a joy, but often filled with extra work as a sort of c…

It should come as no surprise that Twitter has a lot to offer in the funny content department. Comedy writers and aspiring humorists love to create short, pithy tweets that are full of wit and send them out into the world for us unfunny schmucks to enjoy. The only problem here is that the bird app also happens to be brimming with negativity. The political debates, offensive remarks, and persistent trolls feel omnipresent. Because of this sad fact, w e've gathered some of the more recent and amu…

As a lover of science fiction and fantasy , I am always hesitant - or unwilling - to choose a favorite of the genres. Both have many merits, and, like, why should I have to choose between them? I feel just as excited by clanging sword fights, magic spells, and pastoral views as I am about dystopian cyberpunk futures with blue lights and noir themes. And thanks to kindles, video games, and all the streaming services, I can enjoy both at any given moment from the comfort of my couch. Though I may…

Twitter is like an uber-productive and relatively consistent joke factory. It's true that some of the time it churns out some real annoying crap that we try to avoid, but we can usually find some clever jokes, hot takes, and surprisingly astute shower thoughts at any point while doomscrolling through the app. Globally, there are over 206 million people who use Twitter daily , so the constant flow of content can feel kind of daunting, but that's why we curate some of the funniest and freshest tw…

Having a blast or wasting one's time on the world wide web may seem like an easy feat for many internet enthusiasts, but it's really more complicated than one might believe. Boredom has a funny way of diminishing our abilities to seek out intelligent activities, pastimes, or hobbies. And our attention spans are more pathetic than they've ever been before. I swear, it's nearly impossible for me to make it through a forty-minute television episode without feeling antsy, let alone attempt to watch…

Writer Bijan Stephen went viral yesterday after asking Twitter users to share some dumb ideas they think would actually make the world a better place. The response was impressive. Most suggestions, like forcing people to work in the service industry, are actually quite intelligent and valid. Those that aren't still veer towards clever and hilarious. We've put together our favorites and hope the thread keeps moving. Lord knows this world needs improvement.

If you've spent any time on Twitter (or the ‘bird app' as we like to call it) then you know that not all tweets are created equal. Most of the material that people see fit to catapult into the Twitter abyss is either cringe worthy , offensive, or and maybe even both. There's also a wealth of tweets that are so basic they actually make us angry. You know what we're talking about. Those tweets that go viral on the site have either already been tweeted a zillion times or offer up banal sentiments…

Ah, Twitter. As a wise user (@maplecocaine) once said, “Each day on twitter there is one main character. The goal is to never be it.”

It might not take much to wow our tiny brains, but we think that these two hundred and eighty character tidbits deserve some a whole lot of love. There are without a doubt people that can write a novel and completely fail to execute a tweet with grace and wit. That's because tweeting is a very specific skill that involves packing a lot of bunch into some seriously small parameters. Brevity behooves you in the Twitter-verse. For some prime examples of how to do the Twitter thing right, we've fou…

Twitter is a joke factory

Unless something insane is happening in the world, Twitter usually just feels like a machine of tedious and predictable content, always churning out the same stolen jokes, hot takes, bad dating advice, or things that didn't happen. But if you spend some time separating the wheat from the chaff, Twitter doesn't look so bad. That's why we've rescued all the best recent tweets from the dumpster fire that is Twitter dot com. Now you can enjoy the website without even logging on!
