Nothing hits quite like Twitter when you're home for the holidays. You might be sleeping in your childhood bed, far away from your friends and your adult life, hanging out with family members. If you're anything like me, this might make you yearn for the company of online peers. What am I missing? What are people talking about? What jokes are being bandied back and forth that I'm missing while I'm away?
Twitter is the perfect destination for ameliorating this kind of FOMO. In an instant, you'll be caught up with the Joneses. You'll know the drama, the political talking points, and the cultural touchstones. Is this constant craving to be kept up with the never-ending cycle of culture healthy? Let's not interrogate that at this time, please. It's the holidays. We want to be a part of something. So we come to this list of the freshest and funniest tweets of the week.
