How to Be Funny Tweets
1. take your clothes off in public.
1. We admitted we were not at all funny. We were completely unfunnyless.
2. We came to believe in a funniness greater than our shelves.
3. nurture your inner bully, then use him/her to make fun of yourself. Then make fun of that.
4. (comes immediately *before* Step #1): Break the rules.
5. confound expectations- learn to look at things differently- be a an epistemological, ontological anti-conformist. and don't use big words
6. Be punny. If you can't, ur too dumb. But if you rely on puns, you'll be killed by an angry mob with pitchforks.
7. Find out who you are, then be that, times 10. No, times 12. Or maybe times 9. Hmm, dunno... have to test that.
8. Write A LOT. Edit A LOT. Then get goofy all over.
9. Don't be a wordinator. Or a wordsmith. Get it? ;-)
22. Become a boss and quote other people's jokes. Fire employees who don't laugh.
