Twitter’s 140-character format has made way for a whole new brand of comedy writing. See Judah Friedlander: “More than one company should be allowed to sell Monopoly,” or Stephen Colbert: “It doesn’t always pay to get up early. If you’re a worm, you just get eaten by that early bird. So sleep in, worms.” This is part of a complete episode.
Transcript of “Comedic Tweets”
There was an article in Wired Magazine recently about how Twitter has created a whole new genre of comedy.
You know, because it has to fit into 140 characters, and they had some examples.
My favorite was from Judah Friedlander, who’s on 30 Rock.
He tweeted, I think more than one company should be allowed to sell Monopoly.
Love it.
Write to us in 140 characters or less or more.
