Weird Twitter

[1][2][3] Related to anti-humour and created primarily by Twitter users who are not professional humourists, Weird Twitter-style jokes may be presented as disorganised thoughts, rather than in a conventional joke format or punctuated sentence structure.

[4][5][6][7] The genre is based around the restriction of Twitter's 140-character message length, requiring jokes to be quite short.

[8] The genre may also include repurposing of overlooked material on the internet, such as parodying posts made by spambots or deliberately amateurish images created in Paint.

[9][10] The New York Times has described the genre as "inane" and intended "to subtly mock the site’s corporate and mainstream users.

"[11][12] Some sections of Weird Twitter may be dedicated to a certain subculture or worldview, such as Traditionalist Catholicism.
