ART TV SHOWS
One of the great things about Twitter is that it allows for collaborative joke-making. With the use of a hashtag - the pound sign in front of a subject, which enables self-categorization and makes like-minded posts easier to find in search - anyone on Twitter can contribute. Often one person will send out a joke followed by a hashtag, and then other people will jump in on it with their own jokes, like a giant, improvisational brainstorming session. Some of these become mega-popular, with hundreds if not thousands of users chiming in (occasionally these become "Trending Topics," which are featured on the Twitter homepage), while others lie dead in their tracks due to esotericism, specificness, or because the original person's friends didn't seize on it. Recently I sent out the hashtag "#arttvshows" with a couple of groan-worthy puns, and some other cool dudes joined in. For the sake of posterity, since Twitter is more about ephemerality and nowness than archiving and preservation, here's all the great puns those Twitter rascals and I made:
