25 favourite funny tweets of the week
This week, we’ve had the news that Facebook is changing its name, Australian Instagram carried ads for fake vaccine certificates, and Amazon’s Alexa has been saving everything you’ve said to it – including ‘What’s the Welsh for Boris Johnson carrots 100?‘. That’s before we even mention Trump’s ‘Truth Social’.
We’ve avoided the dodgy side of social media by reading posts from the funny people of Twitter, and we’re sharing our favourites.
Give them a retweet or a follow, if you’re feeling generous.

Picked up a hitch-hiker. Seemed like a nice guy. After a few miles he asked me if I wasn’t afraid he might be a serial killer? I told him that the odds of two serial killers being in the same car at the same time were extremely low…
