There's no denying that Twitter can sometimes feel like hell on Earth. Or at least hell on the Internet. But despite all the silly squabbling, terrible takes, and relentless trolling, there are thousands of tweets that inspire laughter, fascinated revulsion, and sometimes a whole damn meme. When Twitter user @Less_HumbleTeej asked his followers to share contenders for the "funniest phrase in Twitter history" they were more than happy to comply. And they created a mega-thread of historically hilarious tweets in the process. We've put together some of the best examples in this gallery, but there are so many more where they came from. While some of them are classics that have made their ways to Instagram or Know Your Meme, we're willing to bet you'll find a new favorite tweets nestled in the hilarity. Happy scrolling.
