Did you know that “TWITTER” stands for Terse Word Inventions To Tell Everyone to Read?
I’ll bet you didn’t know that. Because it’s not true. I made it up just now.
The founders of the company named it “Twitter,” because they basically just thought that sounded nice. That’s the thing about Twitter though, there’s really not too much of a rhyme or reason to it, it’s just sort of a barrage of what sounds nice, or what feels right in the moment. Little bits of thought flotsam floating through the internet for us to catch as we pass by. People use it as a platform to talk about all kinds of things, but the best stuff, we can all agree, is the funny stuff.
Here are your top 10 random tweets for the day that just feel right.

9. Boy oh boy
We were all little terrors, weren’t we?
Boy moms are the best because I’ll be like “my boy is out of control sometimes” and they’ll be like “my boy tore down a whole wall in our house” and it always makes me feel better.

8. Raised by a cup of coffee
This guy should write ads for Folgers.
The best cup of coffee is when you’re a parent on the weekend and you are the first one awake, the house is dark and quiet and it’s starting to rain. That is THE CUP OF COFFEE.
