If you’re like me (and millions of other people), you probably spend a lot of time on Twitter and half the time, you’re probably wondering (like me again) why you follow about two-thirds of the people you follow because they:
(1) Say horribly inappropriate things that make you question if they’re trolling or insane
(2) Always want to argue with you about everything, just because, or
(3) Interject themselves into every conversation you’re having because they absolutely have to have something to say about everything.
So after you unfollow those clowns (or mute them, which is far more fun because they’ll forever wonder why you’re not responding to the tweets they’re sending you), add some joy and laughter to your life by following these funny women.
Note: I wanted to stay away from “celebrity funny people” because following Anna Kendrick and Sarah Silverman is obvious. Also, you should also follow my friend Julie Kedzie (@julesk_fighter) because she’s a horrible cook and an awesome person.

There is a surprising lack of dinner recipes using popcorn as the main ingredient.

My level of American-ness falls in that sweet spot between “is aware there is a Canadian election today” and “doesn’t really care about it.”

I was bitten by a radioactive CrossFit enthusiast, and now I have the power to bore people to death.

There are two kinds of people in the world: Good people, and people who get in the elevator before waiting for people to exit the elevator.

Language studies are WEIRD. You refer to telling a secret as ‘letting the cat out of the bag’ & that’s what I call taking off my underwear.
