Twitter is a wonderful place for one-liners. To be funny on the site, you’ve got to be sharp and practice economy of language. You’ve only got 140 characters to make an impression.
And what better way to wind-down the work day than with a selection of some of the day’s most entertaining tweets.
Today we have some tastefully funny tweets about Steve Jobs, we learn what it means to be “ricist” and we get a rather simple request for hip hop artists.
Enjoy!
