trolling

Just when we thought we'd never get anything better than Donald Trump grasping that orb, we get this dark-humored, delightfully awkward pic that just oozes cringe. Naturally, people were ready to flood Twitter with some entertaining captions. 

Has Trump seen people holding signs on the internet before? It never turns out well.

Say what you will about the President, but there's no denying that his Twitter habits have given us hours of entertainment. His latest Twitter escapade was regarding Time Magazine's 'Person of the Year' issue. On Saturday  President Trump tweeted "Time Magazine called to say that I was PROBABLY going to be named "Man (Person) of the Year," like last year, but I would have to agree to an interview and a major photo shoot. I said probably is no good and took a pass. Thanks anyway!" Parodies from comedians such as Julia Louis Dreyfuss and Billy Eichner began pouring in, along with riffs on New Yorker cartoons. Here are some of our favorites. 

And on a side note, here are some of our favorite tremendous Trump memes that are nearly unbelievable.

Donald Trump's kept it pretty low key on Twitter in recent days. That didn't stop him from penning a little St. Paddy's Day sentiment though. If only he'd spell checked before sending it off though. Then again, would we expect anything less than this from the guy with a wide-reaching, well-developed reputation already for spelling shit in his own language incorrectly?

Yeah, yeah, we know. Here are some Trump Memes to smooth it over.

SNL writer Josh Patten is trolling the President hard. The writer and comedian announced his new project "Responding To Trump Tweets Like They Were Texts" on July 16th, and we can't get enough of it. Patten's "text" responses are brief and colloquial, providing contrast that helps highlight just how over the top and exclamatory the President's tweets can be. Patten has declined to comment on the project, but we're definitely hoping to see more of these "text exchanges" in the future. 

One of the most dedicated and most active trolls in the history of the internet, Ken M, has given us quite a few laughs over the years. Here's some of his best from his escapades around the internet. 

Nearly everyone from both sides of the political spectrum have fun with Trump memes. And occasionally an idea rolls around that's so simple and pure, it makes us forget the ominous and unstable times we live in ---- this is one of those ideas. SNL Writer Josh Patten has taken trolling Donald Trump's stubbornly endless stream of fleeting thoughts, occasional announcements concerning the state of world affairs, and not-so-rare incendiary cultural commentary....to new heights by pretending like he's having a personal texting convo with DJ Trump himself. The resulting hypothetical texting correspondence is alarmingly believable, and entirely hilarious. 

Spelling disaster struck and Merriam-Webster was there to capitalize on it. 

This poor Scottish Steve Bannon laddy has continually been mistaken on Twitter for a very different Steve Bannon, who is the controversial far-right White House Chief Strategist and Senior Counsel to the President, and former Executive Chair of alt-right news site Breitbart News. At least he's handling it like a master troll.

Some folks say the best way to remedy dark and troubling times is through laughter, and I'll be damned if this comedy writer isn't applying the philosophy to sweet perfection. Let's just say that yesterday's golden shower news gave her a lot of material to work with.

This is a prime example of why you've always gotta be careful with what you put on the internet. Granted, tweeting about spitting in someone's beverage is a pretty damn surefire way of taking the shortcut to the unemployment bench.
