If You Were Following Me On Twitter

You’d be following a hilarious vaguely humorous conversation about Cannibal Joke Punchlines I started.

But if you were having that conversation here in NRO's comments (instead of via the most pernicious communications medium of all time, Twitter), you'd already be reaching the wider audience you're courting by leaving this post.

I don't use Twitter, but I do have a Twitter account and enjoy following several different streams (including Jonah's). I like it because I'm frequently pointed to reading material I would otherwise have ignored, or not even been aware of. In that regard, it's much like the Drudge Report. For me, Twitter is much more a content-aggregator than it is a communication medium.

And yes, the cannibalism punchlines have been entertaining.

You can also enjoy slightly longer jokes here than those twits can tell. Not any better, just longer.

So...

Some Presbyterian missionaries encountered a tribe of head hunters and, naturally, were eaten. A short time later a group of Pentecostal missionaries came and the head hunters all threw up their hands.

One head hunter to another, "I don't like clowns, they taste funny." (yes, I think it's a Far Side joke.)

I would follow you on twitter if your stock tips were as good as 50 Cent's (the rapper, not the coin)
