The social media platform formerly known as Twitter (now called “X”) became one of the most popular websites and dominant forms of social media in the world after its launch in 2006, serving as a one-stop shop to check in on friends, family, celebrities, and politicians alike. Hundreds of millions of people have used the microblogging site as a platform for their amusing thoughts and hilarious observations.
Twitter/X is rife with jokes that deal directly with universal situations and can quickly go viral, like comedian Andy Milonakis’ wildly popular tweet in May 2020 during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic: “Congratulations to the Astronauts that left Earth today. Good choice.”
A funny tweet can go from unread to “trending” within a matter of minutes — whether its author is cracking a joke during a major event such as the Super Bowl or sharing a hilarious thought about their everyday life. Here are 19 funny tweets to get your day rolling.
