Wanna know a fun and slightly horrifying fact? If you were to try to go through and read the tweets that were tweeted last week – and I mean, just the ones from last week – it would take you over five hundred years to finish.
Seriously. Five hundred million tweets a day.
Average it out to about 5 seconds to read each one and – assuming you never had to stop to eat or sleep because you got some immortality potion, you’d finish up around the year 2574. All your friends would be long dead but you’d know all the best jokes.
Since you probably don’t have that kind of time or potions, we’ll just whittle it down to a few random good ones.

9. Putting it together

Husband: okay, just need to hop in the shower real quick
