Full disclosure: I’m bad at Twitter. I won’t even bother plugging my handle here because at this point I only post about twice a year, as if it’s a special holiday treat or something. But what I am rather good at is lurking on Twitter. ‘Cause even though I have little to contribute, soaking in the hilarious contributions of others in creepy silence is one of my favorite pastimes.
Enjoy these 10 funny tweets from people who are better at Twitter than you (and me.)

The well-aged Prince of Bel Air.

9. Side-splitting
Use the beef to grab some beef.
[Argument at family dinner]
Wife: *Whispers to me* Don’t start taking sides this time.
Me: Why not? *sliding roast potatoes in pocket* They're too busy yelling to notice.

5. Mind on my money
I’ve waited patiently lo these many years, and no truck full of cash has yet arrived.

4. Navigational novice
I’m still working on “left” and “right.”
Google Maps, don't tell me to "head west" down a road. I don't know what "west" is. I'm not a sea captain.

3. Love at first sight
Nobody had better be slightly nice to me, I might have to propose to them.

2. The room where it happened
This is less “haha” funny and more “hell yeah let’s burn down the system” funny.
if you have to water down who you are to be in the room, if you have to quiet your voice for a seat at the table, you’re in the wrong room…

1. Something to chew on
Same except I don’t tend to go with the starvation option much.

Honestly, reading through those makes me realize I’ll never be one of the Twitter greats, and I’m at peace with that. It’s way easier to just keep scrolling and laughing anyway.
