Everybody gets addicted to saying specific little phrases. 80% of my vocabulary comprises the words “werk” and “gorg.” It's so easy to fall back on cute little slang terms that they can come to define you. My friend Zack is addicted to saying the phrase “dudes rock.” He interjects it whenever he doesn't know how to respond to someone, especially when that someone is a dude. “Dudes rock” is a central tenant of this man's philosophy, and I cannot begrudge that. I don't say “dudes rock” often, but…

Chicken soup for the posters soul

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…

Plus: AI won't dirty talk with you.

It's okay to admit it. Everyone gets tired of the Internet at a certain point, or at least at some point during the day if your whole job depends on being on it. But more specifically, if you avoid Twitter and have never composed a short and sweet tweet , we really can't blame you. That sick universe can actually be surprisingly intimidating - or downright unpleasant if you say the wrong thing or scroll through the wrong part of Twitter. That said, we do enjoy indulging in the witticisms of the…

How is this controversial?

If you weren't already ashamed of your crush on the mvrder0us antagonist before, wait until you see how charming he is on Twitter...

Spoiler alert: it's not right now. For the past couple of years, we've felt like the end of the world as we know it was always right around the corner. Things kept getting worse, and not to sound too optimistic, but things have generally been improving since 2020. I really don't think we can or will have a worse year than that anytime soon. Even though the end times aren't right now, I have to wonder when it will be. And, more importantly, will we have memes? During the little moment we had in…

Something doesn't add up here

A lot has happened

Since Elon Musk took over Twitter, there have been a fair number of changes to the site - most of which have been met with metaphorical foot stomping. In December, the billionaire announced that he intended to increase the site's long-running 280-character limit to 4,000. Needless to say, there was backlash. People felt that the increase defeated the purpose of Twitter: fast news. Well, on February 9th, the change went live - but only for paid Twitter Blue users. It's the first increase since 2…

I hate you, you hate me

I don't know about you guys, but I'm literally addicted to being a normal person. Every day (and it does happen that often), I get described as a bonafide normie. It is music to my ears. I can't get enough of it! Being normal is so socially rewarded , and I'm always ready to receive that participation trophy. Most of us are in denial about being normal, and that's okay! We like to believe that when we fall on the bell curve, we fall all the way to the right, but that's not true. We are probably…

Another Super Bowl has come and gone! If you are an Eagles fan, I send my condolences. If you are a Missouri person, congratulations! Luckily for us casual sports fans, this game was entertaining, and we were all at the edge of our seats until the end. All and all, there wasn't an abundance of memeable moments outside of the halftime show . As Memebase accurately predicted, the M&M spokescandies made an appearance and were not forever replaced by Maya Rudolph. We saw that Super Bowl commercial…

Literacy was a mistake

Oof
