twitter reactions

Netflix tweeted yesterday that The Office, America's most beloved TV show, is leaving to be a part of NBC's own streaming service and people are not happy about it in the slightest. We can't really blame them, given the volume of new streaming services that the average person is now required to purchase in order to watch their favorite shows. Fortunately though, Netflix will keep the show until January 2021 so fans have ample time to watch (and re-watch) it to their heart's content!

Here are some of Twitter's reactions to the sad news.

Oh look, Millennials are back at it ruining everything! A new survey conducted by Porch and tweeted out by Now This News claims that Millennials might be the worst generation at cooking ever, and that nearly 40% don't even know what a butter knife is. Additionally, only about 40% know how to carve a turkey. The horror.

Porch surveyed 750 people of all ages, asking them if they considered themselves to be "good cooks" - just over 60% of Millennials answered yes, while well over 70% of Baby Boomers said the same.   

Many on Twitter have pointed out that the reasoning and methods used by the surveyors is heavily flawed - it's almost like hating on Millennials is all just a big marketing ploy to distract us from real problems! Lol nah, that can't be it...

Robert Pattinson, star of the heavily mocked Twilight franchise, may very well be cast as the next Batman according to news sources. A lot of people are real mad about the pending decision, while others assert that people being are way too quick to judge. Petitions to have Pattinson removed from the role (before even being officially cast) have already started making the rounds on the internet.

Regardless of how you feel about the former Edward Cullen/Cedric Diggory actor playing Batman, the resulting memes and reaction tweets have been pretty priceless.

In a move that's clearly a jab at the McDonald's Happy Meal, Burger King has recently launched "Real Meals" as a part of its #FeelYourWay campaign that aims to raise awareness for mental health issues for Mental Health Awareness Month.

Is this a smart move on their part? When it comes to marketing the brand, we thinks that's a definite yes. Will it actually lead to helping people who deal with mental illnesses? Who knows! We'd love to know what you think on that matter.

And seriously, we have to ask WHAT is going on with brands on social media these days? It seems like after the Wendy's Twitter account made its sassy mark on the world, every single brand wants to get in on that saucy social media action. 

Damn, Gina. Today is serving up a whole lot of "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should." That classic Jurassic Park quote sums up our feelings about the just-released trailer for 'Sonic The Hedgehog'. The film features Jim Carrey as the villainous Robotnik and James Marsden as Tom Wachowski, a small-town Sheriff who assists Sonic in his quest to save the world. Unfortunately, this star power doesn't do much to distract from the film's cringey, creepy CGI and very questionable production. All of Twitter seems to agree.

It seems like CBD is EVERYWHERE these days. If you're unfamiliar, CBD is a compound found in marijuana that does not contain psychoactive properties. In other words, you can't get high from it. Enthusiasts will boast its myriad of benefits, but if we're being honest, we think the claims might be getting a little out of hand.

To top it all off, over the weekend Kim Kardashian threw a CBD, meditation and sound bath (whatever the hell that means)-themed baby shower for the birth of her fourth child, whom she and Kanye are expecting via surrogate in just a few weeks. You can watch a cringey video clip from that below.

Of course, these memes and tweets are all in good fun, and if you've had positive experiences with CBD, we'd love to know!

Spoilers ahead!

Rapper and Game of Thrones super-fan T-Pain caused quite a stir following last night's intense episode. The artist tweeted his respect for Arya's badassery, saying that she deserves some premium "d" for her epic murder of the dreaded Night King. Fans loved the sentiment, riffing with the rapper and joking that she'd better call Podrick, or claiming the tweet was inappropriate. The best part of the thread, however, was when Joe Dempsies, who plays Gendry, decided to chime in. The banter. It's good. 

You're all probably well aware of the monumental fire that scorched the historic Notre Dame cathedral in Paris on Monday. Clearly this was a terrible tragedy and the aftermath of it will likely take years to fully restore. That of course hasn't stopped ruthless memers everywhere from doing what they do best...

Most recently, people have been making fun of a viral tweet by Kaylee Crain, who tweeted a photo of an unscathed cross and altar in the cathedral aftermath, challenging those who still do not believe in God to justify themselves. People have been pointing out to Ms. Crain that the cross is made out of metal, which has a higher melting point than wood. 

Have these toasty memes and tweets gone too far? We'll let you be the judge of that because we're just here to witness the dumpster fire (sorry, too soon, we know).

Oh look, a completely preventable disease is on the rise once again, and this time it's reared its ugly face in New York City. Come on, WTF people...it's kind of surreal that in 2019 we're still having to convince some that the measles vaccine is safe, effective and doesn't cause autism. Accordingly, the city of New York will require unvaccinated individuals to get the MMR vaccine or pay a $1,000 fine.

 Many outraged individuals have taken to Twitter to express their frustration with the anti-vax movement, and we're here for the sass that's ensued.

Former Vice President Joe Biden has recently come under fire for allegedly making multiple women uncomfortable in the past with inappropriate physical contact. Biden issued an apology video yesterday on Twitter (which you can watch below) where he referenced "changing social norms" as the reason for his alleged misconduct, vowing in the future to "respect personal space." Physical contact, however. has always been his way of showing support to others, he stated.

Many on the internet are calling out Biden for giving a total non-apology and completely missing the point - and of course, creating Twitter memes out of it all. Scroll down to read what some people are saying about the issue! 

What do you think? Did Biden go too far? Was his apology sufficient? Let us know in the comments!

Attention people of the internet: no, this is apparently not an April Fools prank. Elon Musk has really outdone himself in the cringe department this time by releasing a rap song on SoundCloud entitled "RIP Harambe." Now, if only someone had notified him beforehand that he's only three years too late to the Harambe parade...

Ol' Musky even changed his Twitter name to "Jung Musk" because why not just maximize the amount of cringe possible for one person? We're really hoping this whole thing is just one big troll, but considering the meme-loving billionaire's internet past, we're not holding out hope for that.

It's a bittersweet year for fans of HBO's Game of Thrones.The wildly popular fantasy saga, based on books penned by George R. R. Martin, is entering its eighth and final season. HBO dropped the official trailer for the climactic ending and, well, the people are freaking out. It's a dark two minute clip that packs a punch of dragons, ice, and a whole lot of death. Here's what everyone thinks.

If you're looking for stupid internet trends, you've come to the right place! After The New York Times published a recipe for "parsleyed noodles," Twitter user Ariel Dumas noticed, and subsequently tweeted, that people were posting ridiculous comments making fun of and meme-ing the slightly pretentious way the recipe was worded. 

Remember the Baby Shark song? Of course you do, but now get ready for 'Copy Shark,' born out of Twitter user stabbyloki's work boredom.

The normally bald Stephen Miller, Donald Trump's senior advisor, is getting roasted for sporting a very obvious spray-on hairstyle. Miller appeared for an interview on Face the Nation yesterday to discuss the potential of a government shutdown, and the internet had no chill about it. Here are some of the best reactions and memes to come from the hair-styling mishap.

Donald Trump's "Space Force" proposal is officially coming to fruition, according to an announcement made by Vice President Mike Pence this morning. Pence stated that the Pentagon has started the planning process for the Space Force which, if authorized by Congress, will constitute the sixth branch of United States Military.

The announcement comes two months after Trump called for a Space Force on the grounds that the US should have the potential to protect its military dominance in space against the likes of China and Russia, who have begun making their own respective outer-space advancements. Specifically, a Space Force would serve to defend American satellites from attack.

China and Russia are currently looking to "reduce US military effectiveness," Pence said in a report by USA Today.

Don't get too comfortable with the idea of having a Space Force yet, however. The Trump Administration still needs to get approval from Congress in order to receive funding, although Pence appears hopeful that they are gaining support for the plan.

Should the Administration receive the necessary funding, Pence stated in his speech that the Space Force will be completed by 2020, and that a US Space Command will be created beforehand, drawing officers and forces from other current military branches.

People on the internet have been offering their thoughts on the Space Force, many more snarky than others. What do you think? Let us know in the comments!
