If you, like me, have a cold, cold heart, you should come and warm yourself by the fire with these hot burns. The internet is a strange place. If we’re not dunking on each other politically or philosophically, we’re trying to one-up each other with jokes. And that sounds cynical, because it is, but it’s also kind of a lot of fun.
Often times, a solid Twitter reply, for instance, will gain so much heat that the person getting dunked on will erase the original tweet, but screenshots are forever. To be good-natured, we’ve covered up the screen names of any such deleted bits. After all, we can’t start taking the internet too seriously.

Nothing more appropriate to honor the Jurassic Park legacy than opening before you should

Every doctor: “This is way worse than a cold or the flu.”
Your cousin: “Nu uh.”
Just following the guidelines advised by the organization made up of individuals who have dedicated their entire lives to studying diseases and how to control and prevent them. I promise they know more than you.

Get bent, bruh.
6. Just kidding
Nothing better than when you can turn around a yo mama joke.
5. Born and raised
“If we went back to using obsolete techniques and technologies, people would be confused.” – a boomer’s idea of a sick burn.
4. Don’t cry for me
If being a man means I don’t get to care about my own parents then screw it, I’m a wombat.
