A little while ago the lovely Chloe wrote ‘Why Tweet‘, a view on some of the benefits of using Twitter.
This isn’t that kind of article.
This is just a look at some of the funny – and serious – Tweets that I’ve bookmarked, for various reasons, but chiefly because I like (and occasionally agree) with the messages they contain.
I’ve deliberately mixed up the funny with the sarcastic with the ironic with the pointedly political.
Enjoy.
