51 of the Funniest Tweets from the Week of August 26, 2024

Last week delivered a range of buzzworthy news and head-scratching sound bites. Adam Sandler continues to make due on his $250 million promise to Netflix with Adam Sandler: Love You, which showcased “songs, jokes, party-crashing dogs” and more of the sensitivity he provided in his last special. In less loving news, Joe Rogan accused Jerry Seinfeld of stealing muffin jokes from Kevin James, and while that isn’t totally accurate, the Seinfeld episode in question does have a legacy of muffin-centric theft. The breakfast-pastry accusation wasn’t the only Seinfeld news this week either — the comedian got a special shout-out from Quentin Tarantino, who for some reason, really likes Bee Movie.

Diving into news from Bikini Bottom, it looks like Mr. Krabs may have gone back on his word. After 14 seasons of vowing to never disclose his secret formula, Krabby Patties will soon be available above sea level at a Wendy’s near you. Paramount reportedly will team up with the “never frozen” fast-food chain to celebrate the 25th anniversary of SpongeBob SquarePants with the “exclusive Krabby Patty Kollab.” The meal will include a cheeseburger topped with “a secret Krabby Patty Sauce” and fries, along with the option to add an aptly named, limited-edition “Pineapple Under the Sea” Frosty. 

Over on the timeline, the most hilarious tweets bubbled up to the top of Twitter and drowned out the rest of the noise. This week’s funniest included those about a deceitful train station, the beauty of learning how things are made after a few drinks and the role that just keeps bringing Jim Carrey back.
