My son, 14, is on Snapchat constantly.
Then there’s my husband, [age not given]. He likes to look at Instagram over his morning coffee.
Finally, my daughter, 11, is too young for a phone and doesn’t do social media. Although, yes, I know the time is coming soon.
But me?
Me, I like Twitter. It’s short, sweet and usually hilarious.
Here are the best funny Twitter accounts I follow for laughs. If you need someone new to follow who will brighten your day, may I suggest these Tweeps.
Abby Heugel
Abby (@AbbyHasIssues) is just a girl, trying to make us laugh. Her tagline: Hell hath no fury like me when I’m hungry and slightly inconvenienced.
Had too much coffee before Swiffering my floors and qualified for the Olympic finals in curling.

My Food Network show would just be me reading the box, throwing it away, and then pulling it back out of the trash two minutes later.

Myrna Tellingheusen
Myrna (@PearlsfromMyrna) is a little old lady telling it like it is from her retirement community. In her former life she was the executive secretary for Mr. Stanley Bogenshoots, Senior Vice President at Hughes Aircraft.
If Doris goes missing just check the buffet line. She’s the one loading her pocketbook with shrimp scampi.

Nothing is more flattering than the fluorescent lighting in the appliance department at Sears.

5-year-old: Am I grown-up yet?

3-year-old: You married my mom.
Me: I did.

Jennifer S. White
Jennifer (@yenniwhite) is a self-professed writing, blogging, sour ale drinking, stay-at-home-yoga mama machine. She’s got your funny parenting and life observation tweets covered. Plus, she’s got a knack for retweeting the best funny stuff on Twitter.
What I say: “Just a minute.”
What my toddler hears: “Ask again right now. And now. And…again, now. “

Now it’s your turn. Any funny Twitter accounts or other jovial folks on social media channels you suggest that I follow? And, don’t forget to follow me on Twitter!
I love when Twitter can offer a laugh. I’m open to more laughs. 🙂 I’m trying to think of some funny accounts I follow, I know I follow some, but I’m lost on the names currently. DOH!
It happens to the best of us–doh! 🙂

Oh this is such a hoot, Katy. Thank you. I have been neglecting Twitter ever since I deleted it from my phone do to storage issues. Gotta get back to it.

Holy guacamole, Katy, I needed these suggestions to lighten up my Twitter feed. I admit, Twitter is where I go to rant but a girl can only take so much angst! PS I want to be best friends with Myrna.

I love a good twitter feed, I’ll go check some of them out, thanks for sharing #tweensteensbeyond
I love these Katy, I’m off to follow them right now. It’ll make a nice change to see some humour on twitter. I guess that being able to use more characters in a tweet may have helped. Thanks so much for sharing with us at #TweensTeensBeyond
I love those posts that just get you. I have to say I’ve seen this on Instagram and there are a couple on Twitter too and maybe Sharon is correct above, in saying about the extra characters now. Thank you for sharing with #tweensteensbeyond. Hope the new role is going well x
This is interesting Katy. I had never thought to look for funny accounts on twitter although there is one dad @honestdad who constantly pops up in my feed and never fails to make me smile. Thanks for sharing yours with us. #TweensTeensBeyond

Wish I had time for Twitter. I’m an IG girl, but I hate that it’s no longer chronological …
