Tweetweek: Special Gallows Humor Episode
Saturday, April 25, 2020 at 11:02AM
NATHANIEL R in Keanu Reeves, Mad Men, Marion Cotillard, Simu Liu, The Others, Twitter, politics

This message popped up on Twitter and we all had a good laugh about it. Niche humor for Oscar watchers only but something might be wrong with Twitter's notification algorithms.

More after the jump including Mad Men, proprietary feelings about Keanu Reeves, a Nicole Kidman ditty, Simu Liu's quarantine and lots of gallows humor because that's the world we're living in...

That thing where you briefly forget that Mad Men was your favourite show and it was also a cinephile's treasure hunt and then someone reminds you perfectly.

I would love to see Don Draper's letterboxd account

That one took me a second but if you sing along it's so beautiful. Haha.


More curated tweets plus gallow humors after the jump...

the thing about meals is when you make them there’s stuff to eat but after you finish? there’s nothing to eat. how fucked up is that?

Marion Cotillard in NINE.... I think we should have that conversation. pic.twitter.com/RCHN8iFaN2

Why weren't people having that in 2009? We tried!

I wanted to retweet this 1000 times. This is slander. GenX made Keanu (and Winona). They are part of us. Newer generations trying to claim them is so obnoxious. Yes, you may also enjoy them but don't pretend they weren't beloved before your pop culture eyes first opened!

 

INSPIRED GALLOWS HUMOR 
Because the world deserves that right now...

My thoughts are with everyone who did a 2020 vision board.

What's with this voting thing, anyway? Shouldn't they dig an alligator pit around voting booths. And yes, stock it with hungry alligators. Protect postman from COVID-19 by getting rid of the post office. And of course, you don't need ventilators if you just hold your breath.

Gay men growing their hair out and acquiring a mustache in quarantine is leading to a lot of very 1983 vibes for what I now assume is our classic "Plague Look".
