I wanted to bring your attention to some people on Twitter who crack me up on a daily basis. In alphabetical order, showing a funny tweet from each, and the tweet linked to their Twitter page.
I’ll never forget the night we thought we had a direct IRL line to Sween. We were swoony. Then we realized it wasn’t going to be. That was a fun 25 minutes of us pretending to be 15 year olds and Sween becoming the Jonas Brothers of Twitter. Just for us though. No one else. I mean it ladies. Back off.
Thanks for the list. I find myself reading twitter updates now in lieu of Time Magazine. Who cares what’s happening across the world, it is far more important to know that “ugly christmas sweaters” now have twitter accounts.
I cannot POSSIBLY imagine how long it took you to crop all those screenshots so perfectly, but you’re amazing and this is amazing and YOU LEFT SOMEONE OFF!!! (???)
Kelly, you would have been in my bad-ass mom list had you NOT been included elsewhere. AND you are damn funny on Twitter. You are totally like a cross-pollinator.
In defense of the damn lists, there isn’t another mom blogger more A) unknown and B) fringey than me, and I’m on one. Of course, I had to threaten them with, “DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHO I USED TO LIVE RIGHT NEXT DOOR TOO?” to get on it.
That said, this may be the greatest list of anything, anywhere.
And you really need to meet my most recent ex-neighbor, @lukeinvan. You’re welcome. 🙂
Mr. Lady – I had a post all planned with YOU as Ponyboy cause you look more like him, but then you WENT AND GOT ON THE EFFING LIST and RUINED IT ALL. I even emailed Babble and told them about our former neighborliness but they said they didn’t care, so I know YOU didn’t use that excuse, SO THERE. Just kidding. They told me we could share the title since we used to live 5 feet from each other.

Thank you so much for including me. An honor to be in such fine company. Many of these kooks have become my good friends.
found this via a friend’s email forward. So damn funny! Thanks for the laugh!
Mocha
You have exquisite taste. I follow fully 95% of these people. It follows that I have exquisite taste as well.
I also follow YOU. So, it follows that…DUH.
Elizabeth
These are amazing! Have you seen http://www.textsfromlastnight.com? Slightly less sophisticated, but many of them remind me of the ones above
Overflowing Brain
Holy crap. That is potentially the best list I’ve ever seen.
Even my husband, who is anti-everything on the internet that’s not written by video game companies is laughing. That’s a fucking seal of approval right there.
All I have to say is: Oh my god, I love you even more (possible?) for posting these!!!! Dana
Joanne
The surge is working! The surge is working! Yeah, I got some new followers today. Thanks for including me on your list, Aimee! *Hugs* @CinderellaJoey
Jenny, the Bloggess
I love this. And not just because I get to be Patrick Swayze.
How have I not even heard of some of these people before?
kacawratu
Hysterical! Thanks for sharing!!

I was only on Liz’s list because I wanted to tweet her and gratuitously brag about my ability to make the perfect grilled cheese.
And also to laugh about how people do things like give me car seat door prizes and mail me formula vouchers even though, hey, no kids. But if I’m going to be willing to be part of some community that will have me as a member, it’ll be the parent blog people. This way I have nice friends who drink wine with me but also always make sure I have extra napkins and I’m wearing a warm coat. Score.
All up in myTwitter:
@knitterplease second Liz w/ @michaelianblack
@freshalina live-tweets Bravo shows like the Real Housewives and makes me laugh so hard it’s embarrassing.
@sarahbellum
@effingboring
And finally, @FakeAPStylebook is so awesome, I want to retweet everything they tweet, so follow them and I’ll feel less annoying. 🙂
Manrinka, the screencap of each tweet is a link to their Twitter page. 🙂

great stuff…there are some hilarious aholes on twitter. me being one of them….more ahole than hilarious twitterer but I’ll take what I can get. richierich3
Thanks soooo much for including me! I really do appreciate it, because I’m really just sharing the random crazy thoughts that go through my head on a daily basis. Plus, I wholeheartedly endorse everyone else on this list – all great people…AND you’re very awesome. Thanks again 🙂 @gothscifigirl
OK, I followed about half of these people on your recommendation…one day I’ll be on a list like this; but it’ll probably be for illegal stuff

@ Twitt_or_Miss says : TY !! Love to laugh 😉

Aimee- The image of a purse carrying Chewbacca made me spit popcorn first thing in the am- this is an awesome list. Thank you for including me- I will drink more caffeine and try to raise the funny ante.:)
dear gawd in heaven this makes me proud of the human race. still laughing. now trying to get the damn coffee stain out of my “blank canvas” that i spit on while laughing. thank you aimee. and you totally should have been one of these. seriously.
I’m probably not on any twitter lists because I almost never tweet!

That is hilarious! I read it aloud to my co-workers. Everyone needs a good laugh so I made this webmix to share with everyone.

Enjoy! http://bit.ly/topfunnytweeps – Caution for those of you at work, Will Result in outbursts of laughter.
Holy shit Aimee!!!! That is awesome!!!
I loved this.
I think I was in that pharmacy mentioned in #50 on Saturday night.
Ha ha! This makes me want to start on Twitter to follow them.
That was great!
I think I’m witty and insightful in 140 characters or less…but I’m afraid I’m sometimes the only one laughing.
(BTW, blog looks awesome. I subscribe, so I don’t usually click over.)
I busted a gut.
Okay, but I get to be Rob Lowe then.
I think I’m going to officially delete my entire twitter list and just follow who you’re following.
But I would have to add @paulscheer, @robheubel and @michaelianblack who consistenly make me feel very, very unfunny.
I’ll never forget the night we thought we had a direct IRL line to Sween. We were swoony. Then we realized it wasn’t going to be. That was a fun 25 minutes of us pretending to be 15 year olds and Sween becoming the Jonas Brothers of Twitter. Just for us though. No one else. I mean it ladies. Back off.
Crap. I even have @robheubel coming to my fracking phone. I KNEW I would forget people!
And seriously. Back off the @sween. Even the @damselesque.
Best list EVAH!!
Frikkin’ brilliant. I heart you.
So many of these made me laugh out loud. Thanks for that!
This was perfection. I will add more after I reread it to my husband and re-explain what twitter is again.
Where do you find the time to do all that you do? Superwoman!!!! Great List!
Thanks for the list. I find myself reading twitter updates now in lieu of Time Magazine. Who cares what’s happening across the world, it is far more important to know that “ugly christmas sweaters” now have twitter accounts.
A. I’m never going to be on a list.
2. Holy shit why am I not following any of those people?
I cannot POSSIBLY imagine how long it took you to crop all those screenshots so perfectly, but you’re amazing and this is amazing and YOU LEFT SOMEONE OFF!!! (???)
Kelly, you would have been in my bad-ass mom list had you NOT been included elsewhere. AND you are damn funny on Twitter. You are totally like a cross-pollinator.
And Terry, check Twitter.
I can’t stop laughing. Hilarious. – m
Don’t worry about it Terry. I am funniest person on the planet and I didn’t get on, either.
I’m not complaining. I got my own planet. It’s a planet that doesn’t have Twitter yet. Or other people.
Oh Jesus Christ! This listmaking is hard work!

I will get removed from the list if I can be your ponyboy.
Let’s share it. I’m cool with that.
Just forwarded to like 50 zillion people. Who don’t do Twitter. But may understand why I read this kind of stuff online now!!!
Love the mommybloggers on the other lists, looking forward to reading all these folks too. Thanks.
LOVE this list! My arm is tired from clicking “follow”! Thanks for sharing Amy.
oh wow. That. is. awesome.
Wow– holding back tears I’m laughing so hard! That was some funny shit.
I’m honored to be included on your list Aimee. As a symbol of my gratitude, please take my in-laws.
the Outsiders of Mommy Blogs.
YES.
Love it! You follow the greatest people on Twitter.
That is some very serious awesomeness. Thanks for sharing!
Great Tweets. Mine are much more mundane. However, I do get a kick from @mishacollins
I’m honored to be on that list, thanks!
And really, I did ask the pharmacy tech and she said that the number of ‘scrips for Xanax type meds do seem go up slightly around the holidays.
Not that I would know anything about that, of course. I love my family deeply and am always delighted to hang out with them.
:-]
Brilliant list. I too want a tower of bacon.

These are really great, Aimee. I’m not funny on a regular basis, but once in a while, there are some good ones. Here’s my most RT’d tweet:

Honored to be included among so many of my friends on your list.
