Back in the early days of Twitter, funny tweets were made of nothing more than 140 characters (or less) of pure Twitter wit. And if you wanted to add a picture, you had to upload it to a separate website and link to it in your tweet. Efficient right?
But oh, how times have changed. Now, our feeds are a rich tapestry of humor that not only tickles the text-loving part of our brain but also the visual cortex with perfectly paired images. It’s a whole new ballgame where the punchlines aren’t just spelled out; they’re illustrated, meme-ified, and served up for instant comedic gratification.
Today’s roundup showcases the evolution of the Twitter joke with the funniest picture tweets from this week. These are the tweets that remind us that sometimes, the right image is worth 140 characters and then some.
