61 of the Funniest Tweets from the Month of August 2024
It’s the dog days of summer, and some news this month definitely had us wagging our tails. We learned that while Lisa Kudrow may be best known for being the ditzy friend singing “Smelly Cat,” she was immediately fired after scoring a substantial role on Frasier. We also watched as Disney’s first tango with Deadpool dominated the box office, effectively making the Marvel superhero bigger than Jesus — Eli Roth’s Borderlands never had a fighting chance. Then, Punkie Johnson revealed why she left Saturday Night Live, and Steve Martin explained why he refuses to portray Tim Walz on the show. All the while, an Australian Olympic breakdancer slid up and down Twitter timelines as the meme that kept on giving.
But although the news was different every day, Twitter never, ever stopped being hilarious about the headline du jour. Here are some of the funniest tweets you might have missed this month, including those about communicating cats, why God is okay with abortions and a 12-second mourning period.
